Jail Time for Not Mowing?

[grungerman]

Jesus Christ that is totally ridiculous. If someone wants to have a garden that encourages the growth of natural plant species and subsequent habitat creation they should be allowed to, if not actively encouraged. This video is demonstrative of mans' misunderstanding of their place in the natural world.

yeh it is total bullshyt im living in a neighborhood like this now strict over cutting grass... all the way down to keeping up with flowers ... headache them GAWT DANG HOA ~Home Owners Association~ they act like the fawkin police ... i had to report one bitch we all hate..... for cursing at some kids for having to many toys on the sidewalk playing wtff?.....my grass stays cut ....but dont come knockin on my damn door reminding me it needs to be cut everytime it grows out lolohell naww

I would rather see grass in it's natural state, but if it were my yard, It would be transformed into a garden of herbs or veggies and fruits etc. When did nature become bad? Crazy that we let this happen.  Freedom, where did you go?

[jeffreyleighton]

thats dumb but okayy

[samatention]

A few reasons why you need to keep your property neat. it effects property values of the neighborhood. Health because things like rats, mice, snakes like the tall grass and trash to hide in. another reason fire hazard.

The biggest is neighbor with two 5 gals of gas at 3am in the morning.

that is so RETARDED!!

its so stupid when i had to pay $100 just cuz

my grass was 1 inch over height. man i could of

bought some new shoes with that. DAMN!!

[EFFFINGJOSH]

lol yeah i can see if your lawn is like 10 feet high but 1 inch over thats a little crazy

[babybooty321]

wow this is sum bullshyt right here.

[IBMeddling]

this law is also anti wild life presservaion.

[allanwilliams985]

I don't know about vacant lot but if its my house - its my grass. I can make it grow or I can cut it its none of anyone's business. These idoits have no business but to sit and make stupid laws. FUCK OFF ASSHOLES

[jeffreypenner]

also not cutting the grass often correlates with having lots of weeds. I don't want my neighbors weed seeds blowing on my lawn.

[BionicDance]

But...why is it REQUIRED that a lawn be mowed in the first place? Because some uptight yahoos think it's unsightly? Hell, if it's your own property, I think you should be allowed to make it as unsightly as you please, from painting your house bizarrely clashing colors, to putting up graffiti or signs, to not mowing your damn lawn.

...but that's just me.

[ricanssuck]

THis is typical liberal bullshit. Democrats are Nazis. Wake up stupid americans, Dont make the same mistakes europe made. Liberalism is communism. Why dont you see that?

[BionicDance]

I don't see it because it's BULLSHIT.

Liberalism is NOT communism, and you're an utterly clueless, bigoted, uneducated, reactionary, prejudiced, alarmist, uncultured, paranoid, chowderheaded MORON if you genuinely believe that.

And how you can POSSIBLY describe Democrats--champions of civil rights, non-violence, equality, and egalitarianism--as "NAZIS" is fucking beyond comprehension.

Is there something wrong with you that we should be aware of? Were you dropped on your head as a baby?

Thanks not not living next door to me , when you buy a house in the city or suburb you are living under a covent , thats states you will maintain all of your property home yard etc. If you dont want a nice house , get a card board box and live out side the city limits , then all us yahoo's that care about there home and value the worth of a hard earned home can stop by and give you lazy ass holes the hand out your waiting for .

[BionicDance]

Well, no matter how much you care about your home, you CLEARLY don't give a shit about learning how to SPELL. *rolls eyes skyward*

When I buy property, I'm living under the secure knowledge THAT IT'S MY FUCKING PROPERTY...and I can maintain it, or not, however I choose. There is absolutely NO reason whatsoever that anyone else should be able to say that I have to live up to their standards UNLESS my actions are DIRECTLY affecting their ability to live life or maintain their property their way.

[rpaull3]

i totally agree with bionicdance on this one. how can you guys accept losing freedoms of any kind? are you freaking retarded?

[wg40504]

This has got to be the dumbest thing I have ever seen. If they put some one in jail for this, a lawsuit will fallow and the court will declare it unconstitutional.

[nobssagittarius2]

Jail time aint that bad. (Im one of hundreds homeless in alabama and jail is better.)

[Flirmy]

I think natural unkempt lawns look better anyway

[SwobyJ]

me too

[Dimen0925]

Noobs!

[garrettsambo7]

That's the silliest thing I ever heard!
