Earlier this year a Texas State University student received the following message from community management at his housing complex:
quote:

NEW BBQ GRILL POLICY: All grills must be removed immediately. Grills left out as of Monday will be removed from your patio or balcony.


His response? Chain it down and make a flag.



They eventually came with bolt cutters and confiscated his grill prompting our man to borrow a friend's grill and counter with this maneuver


quote:

The property manager and other officials were called in. Hunter and the manager reached an agreement: he could have his beloved original grill back as long as he kept it housed indoors when it was not in use, and if he removed the cemented grill from the ground. Hunter agreed.


quote:

Hunter’s commitment to freedom led to a cessation of management’s search and seizure policy. Instead, they went around knocking on doors telling residents to bring their grills inside, as well as leaving notes notifying residents who weren’t home at the time that they took their grill, but could claim it from the office as long as they kept it inside after they got it back.

I'd plow over that thing with my truck. Would not let that kid win.

Because I'm salty like that.

Dude has too much time on his hands. But, kudos to him for the flag.

Now they're going to have a bunch of people taking grills they just used back inside with hot coals and shite in them, and burning the whole apartment complex down.

To the People of Texas & All Americans in the World:

Fellow citizens & compatriots—I am besieged, by the Mexican building superintendent under the landlord—I have sustained a continual Bombardment & harassment for 24 hours & have not lost the grill. The enemy has demanded a surrender at discretion, otherwise, the occupants are to be put out on the street, if the apartment is taken—I have answered the demand with a piss balloon, & our flag still waves proudly from the walls. I shall never surrender or retreat. Then, I call on you in the name of Liberty, of patriotism & everything dear to the American character, to come to our aid, with all dispatch—The enemy is receiving reinforcements daily & will no doubt increase to three or four in four or five days. If this call is neglected, I am determined to sustain myself as long as possible & grill like a soldier who never forgets what is due to his own honor & that of his country—Barbecued spare ribs or Death.

WHO GIVES A frickING frick?

No one on this site thought that he researched and wrote the article and took the pics himself.

Do we have to include bibliographies when posting now?
