HOA SHOULD LEARN LIMITS

Regarding "HOA right to protect backyards" (Letters,
Friday):

I seriously doubt a person who needs medical marijuana to function is
comparable to the pot-smoking addict who lived next door to the letter
writer.

The homeowners associations have no business and no right intruding on
the freedoms of the people who own their property. And they have no
right to prevent someone from using their medication, no matter what
the medication is.

Did you complain this bitterly of someone smoking cigarettes in their
own backyards?
