The issue is parasitic HOAs that don't allow it.

For calling themselves "land of the free" there is surprisingly little freedom, unless you are rich of course. At that point you can rape kids and get away with murder.

As an American. The cause is racism.

No, really. HOA's were originally created to keep black people out of white neighborhoods after government-backed segregation was made illegal.

Officially it was a suicide. Or at least according to the Don(ald).

HOA's don't allow watching Friends? I thought HOAs were bad.

I stopped raking years ago, and have started seeing fireflies again.

My neighbours hate it, but honestly, I’ve never understood raking in the first place. It’s autumn, and leaves are natural. What’s with the obsession to make lawns look like artificial carpeted spaces?

The leaves look nice imo. Better than a scalped layer of dying grass.

Everyone with an HOA chooses to have it.
