HOA tries to fine homeowner $50 for their bright red-painted front door, except the homeowner’s property isn’t part of the HOA, and busybody neighbor issuing the “fine” isn’t a member of the HOA board: 'This is not the first time'

A self-appointed neighborhood code enforcer attempted to "fine" a non-member for having front door painted what they considering to be an affronting color. This perceived affront had already led to a confrontation between the two, but the neighbor refused to let the matter go.Don't get me wrong, I love following a good rule. For example, if I go to a community pool and there are a bunch of rules listed in the entry way, you bet I'm going to follow each and every one to the letter. I might even feel a mild air of superiority for doing so and turn my nose up at those who aren't doing the same.
