who project their anti government attitude onto the HOA. We had a guy last week who came to our meeting and spent a half hour telling us he doesn't believe he has to obey the CC&Rs that he agreed to obey when he bought the house. He refused to pay HOA dues until a lien was placed on his house. Now he ripped up all the grass to put in rocks without submitting a plan. He posted a profane sign on the HOA president's house after scaring the shit out of the president's wife and kid by loudly pounding on the door.
So he could be a gunner and come after us with his gun next.
