Default HOA smacks down free speech

Washington woman gets complaint from HOA that she has too many
chickens in her yard (like more than zero).

Woman registers her displeasure by honking her horn repeatedly, a
dawn (since there are no more roosters), in front of HOA's
president's house.

When arrested, woman claims horn-honking is an exercise in free
speech.

Convicted anyway.

Obviously the judge is in the pocket of the HOA.

Oh come on. This would have brought about a conviction no matter what
the precedent. The original city judge got it exactly right, this
isn't free speech it is harassment.


But think of the chickens!
