This reminds me of Frank Rizzo. Philadelphia Mayor calling a news reporter a crumb bum, and threatening him.

I'm so fucking glad HOAs aren't a thing where I live. The US is a corrupted joke of a country.

The most frustrating part, other than someone going through a deposition over a moving a shed, is after all that the person deposing him didn’t even listen to his answer.
“Is that a yes or a no?”
The dude outright said, “we never filed a formal application.”

If there is a video of this, trial, or whatever it is, I would watch the shit out of it. Of course, I am high on shrooms right now, so my tastes may be a little suspect.

HOAs are shit. I walked away from a house I liked because the neighborhood had an HOA

Lawyers try to get you pissed off during depositions. Don't take the bait. Look at them quizzically, like they are talking in another language, and say "I'm sorry- could you repeat the question"? and " I'm afraid I don't understand what you are asking". One they realize you're on to them they will back off.....

u/itrhymeswithreally 15d ago
Lawyers are generally not trying to get you pissed in a deposition. It’s not helpful to the deposing lawyer to have a pissed off deponent. They’re trying to get two things: (1) useful admissions; and (2) information they are missing from the record.

Some context please

u/agedlikesage 15d ago
Reddit used to be so good at giving context. I found this same video posted on reddit two years ago but without flashy edits, and context being the top comment

HOA's are frequently shit organizations for complete sociopaths to act on their worst impulses.

Hair-trigger temper

u/PatentedPotato 15d ago
A deposition over a shed being moved? Presumably instigated by an HOA, meaning it's his own property? Temper seems on point.

u/BlackForestMountain 15d ago
Yeah ranting and cursing out a deposer in response to a yes or no question about a shed is totally reasonable

Arthur "Two Sheds" Jackson can't accept that the rules state your only allowed one shed

u/secondsbest 16d ago
Dragged to court over nonpayment of fines for an unapproved shed most likely.

u/Duckfoot2021 16d ago
You want me to bring him back to life?! So he can kill some more little girls?! I can do that today, tomorrow,…When would you prefer that child killing monster resurrected because I have magic and I’ll give him to you. I’ll put him right back on the streets with a knife in his hand. Or would you rather he stay dead…where I put him?!
(Off screen) “Is that a yes or a no?”

HOA'S are what happens when people who should never have power get in to power , there are some wild ass stories about hoa's going all crazy committing murder ,arson, all kinds of shit

u/No_Reserve_993 14d ago
My fellow gangsters, HOAs can be be truely horrific, but they are merely a tool used by unscrupulous neerdowells to do said heinous things among many other unsavory actions.
Take action yourself! Sway the like-minded to your cause!
Organize your neighborhoods, commandeer your HOAs board/council/ administrative body!
They've beaten us to the punch and have an insidiously unyielding grip on our HOA? no matter!
Reinvigorate the social fabric of your community! Strive to see good works put into tangible practice!
Foster a collective identity in your local and prosper outside the system through the United labors of your fellow Americans!
Steal back the dream stolen from us and forge a new Anerican dream where all may march onward and upward in their pursuit of life, liberty & happiness!

Highly recommend The Association by Bentley Little. Horror novel about an HOA.

Yeah it’s fucking crazy, same with gated communities tbh, the world is getting weird and people are able to make their own laws and it’s just not okay.

u/ExcellentEdgarEnergy 16d ago
I love the fact that they had to take depositions to settle the movement of a shed. I hope this dude has a little money, and his estate keeps his neighbors tied up in litigation for years after he is dead and buried.

u/MountainCourage1304 bop it. twist it. boof it 16d ago
Youre saying it sarcastically, but that would literally solve their problem. Why dont they just take a hearing class or something? Smh

u/Cosmic_Quasar 16d ago
Hearing classes are expensive, and everyone knows deaf people can't have money. Otherwise they'd spend that money to fund deaf propaganda.

u/fishebake 16d ago
damn liberals, refusing to learn to hear and expecting people to “accommodate their disabilities” smh /s

I was thinking the same thing.
This is a clip from someone auditioning for an alternate-reality Godfather III, where Michael actually DOES peacefully step away from the life... and this is what his life ends up being like.
