recollect my audience with Orlando ’s “ illegal ” front - yard gardener ?
AIMGiftbearer commented below this picture yesterday :
“ All such ordinances should be done away with . “ Appearance ” should never ruff function , and “ property value is not something that should be pass . People should be free to grow what they require on their own dimension . If somebody else does n’t like a neighbour ’s yard then they just should n’t look at it . It ’s none of their business ! If they do n’t like it then elusive tomato plant ! When push arrive to squeeze nutrient come in first and everyone has the right to feed themselves and their family . Food toll keep going up and salaries are n’t , so one ’s got ta to do what one ’s got ta do . I say if someone can rise much or all of their own intellectual nourishment then more power to them ! And really if you appear cryptic this is not coming from “ the politics ” per se although they are the single enforcing this BS law , but what ’s really behind it is peculiar interests that map mega food production ; big corporations that need to be food Monopoly . They are the same corporation that have put many little mom and toss off local farmers out of business . Such predatory company desire everyone to get their food only from THEIR multi - billion dollar businesses . The regime ’s part in this is that they are too lenient in not confine corporate over - reach and in so doing they break down to protect the “ little bozo ” from opprobrious big stage business practices and their ego - serving agendas . It all arrive down to profit over individual rights , and someone just assay to feed themselves and their family are getting stepped on here . Aesthetics is often the express reason for such ordinances , but in realism it ’s just an apology to aim the rights of the food Monopoly over that of the citizen . This cover understanding does not carry piss . It ’s dead vapourous and total BS ! There are so many better ways tax money could be spent rather of paying ridiculous “ yard police ” to go and micromanage people ’s front yards and tie up the court system with frivolous trumped up charges against citizens who are just living their lives in “ pursuit of happiness . This manikin of harrassment really is a violation of Constitutional property rights and it should be the position of County , State , and Federal Government to take a world-wide hands - off approach when certain busybodies complain about the “ look ” of a sustainable garden . Maybe rather of encouraging this sort of nitpicky , catty behavior , those agency who are find such calls should just secernate the griping person to be more tolerant and that they can only assure land that they own ; not everyone else ’s . If one somebody here and there is so accent out by what someone else chooses to plant then the job really rests with that individual who is “ bothered ” by it , not the plantation owner . Personal preferences should not be a authorization for another to pull up and break apart their garden crops , wasting good , healthy food . soul get their own solid food IN NO WAY infringe upon Monsanto or any of the big box chain grocery food market stores ’ right , nor the right of other citizen hold up in the neighbourhood . They are still gratuitous to do what they desire with the body politic they own . There are however legitimate laws on the books against monopolies ! I desire that this couple ’s attorney will make consumption of those statutes in courtyard . ”

I tend to harmonize . There does seem to be a thrust towards centralization of ascendency in the hands of corporations and administrative official .
Planting a front - 1000 garden in some domain is now a rotatory act .
Viva la revolution !
