Bad news, Floridians. You can't have that webcam business going without those jerks down the street signing off on it.
On Thursday, the court handed to the Brantley Harbor Homeowners'
Association a victory in its lawsuit against the former owner of a home
once occupied by a gay live webcam operation. The suit began more than
five years ago, when the HOA sought to evict College Boys Live from its midst, ostensibly because HOA rules prohibit operating a business in a residential neighborhood.
Despite the HOA's often-stated position that the content of the gay
website wasn't at issue in the lawsuit, comments made after the court's
decision gave another impression.
"They were surrounded by two-story homes, so we had a lot of children,
8, 9, 10, living in bedrooms that were restricted from looking out the
windows," former Brantley Harbor HOA president Mike Tower told local
television station WFTV.
All right, so how come we're totally on these guys' side but we came down so hard on those swingers in Dallas? We're tempted to say we have a soft spot for college boys, but you know what: we think it probably has to do with parking. If these College Boys are blocking parking for their neighbors, they gotta go. Otherwise, it's curtains for everyone! Or blinds. You get the idea.
