I think we just have to agree to disagree. The family had their day in court and the Louisiana Supreme Court saw it their way.

I guess I shouldn't have used the word "professing" that clearly is not the case; "alluding" would have been better choice.

don't know about that but the street view is of a Sunseeker, with two slides on drivers side. many/most of the houses around there were more conducive to parking a motorhome, drive on the side of the house, etc. not dead ended into the house. the one in front does not look like the one in the story linked. more white whereas the one in story is grey? image data in street view was 4-11. perhaps he bought a new RV?

Wasn't the photo in the article of a Class A??

found a picture of his house. evidently has a circular drive in the front, his Class C is parked parallel to the street, across the entire front of the house. has two additional vans in the drive way and one pickup truck. I can see why the neighbors would object to that unsightly parking lot.

Yes - you can use google. Word comprehension? Not much help there. Not going to try to figure out how you know about beliefs I was professing that I may not have. Doesn't matter - just another nincompoop to add to my block list.

Obviously, there has to be rules. And, if you want more rules you have to pay more.

Why shouldn't the guy next door to you get to raise pigs in his yard than if: "Let them live as they see fit".

And this is at the heart of the problem. Why should family A get to live their lives that way, but family B doesn't? If family B's daily vehicle was totaled in an accident, why can't they park their 35 foot RV in the driveway because they need it to get around? Who gets to decide the criteria as to whether your reason is OK or not?

And, there is still the issue of asking forgiveness versus asking permission.

Dodgeguy - you can through the "uncompassionate" card away; it belongs in the trash heap along with the "race card". Most handicap people get along just fine with a modified van. Would you like me to send you a picture of a person with MS in a minivan with a lift?

I was sort of wondering that myself. why didn't the fella do the standard/normal thing and modify a conversion van for transport?
does he really take his son everyplace, malls, movies, etc. in a 35 ft RV?
