Should America be allowed to become a fascist state due to the machinations of the corrupt among us, and the apathy of the intelligent and rational? I say, NO !!!
I, for one, will fight until I take my last breath to keep America the Constitutional Federal Republic our Founding Fathers gave us. And if part of that fight means getting enough signatures on a petition to abolish all HOAs in the state of Colorado -- including my own HOA -- that's what I and some other mad-as-hell-and-won't-take-it-anymore Colorado HOA homeowners will do.

The Rise of the HOA Regime and the end of Democracy in America:
The move to reduce member voting rights in HOAs

Developments concerning HOA reforms in three state legislatures portend an end to the 222 year American Experiment in democratic self-rule. The California Law Review Commission had recommended a total rewrite of California?s HOA (CID) act with a blank ?Member Bill of Rights.? The bill was withdrawn not because of the absence of this empty chapter, but because the special interests had some ?technical concerns.? The Commonwealth of Virginia Senate has before it a bill, SB1489, to remove the voting rights of members, rights specified in the binding agreement of the declarations. The Arizona House has before it a bill, HB2434, that will impose a uniform quorum requirement that will permit only 20% of those voting, not of the total membership, to amendment the declaration. What happened to CAI?s [the Community Associations Institute] repeated cries that the -- will of the majority -- is the democratic way?
And behind each one of these bills is the hand of the national lobbying organization, Community Associations Institute (CAI), a tax exempt business trade organization whose objective is to support its members, the vendors of services to HOAs.
"Fascism combats the whole complex system of democratic ideology, and repudiates it, whether in its theoretical premises or in its practical application. Fascism denies that the majority, by the simple fact that it is a majority, can direct human society. " Benito Mussolini, WWII Italian dictator and fascist leader.
Americans have a choice to make. Legislators have a choice to make. Which America lies in our future? Shall the America of the people, by the people and for the people perish from this earth, replaced by the top-down imposed separate and unequal laws of the fascist leaning HOA? I hope not!
