While I can understand the forced removal of these poles that are in violation of an obscure law stating they can't be within 7 feet of the pavement......I can not, for the life of me, see how they are able to just remove them from their property altogether after telling them that they may keep them on their property. That woman blatantly lied to that guy.....and what they did was essentially steal his property. Furthermore, she has no right to tell him what to do on his own property. He was posing no risk to anyone and as far as I can tell, wasn't being a nuisance to anyone but the ***** trying to steal his basketball hoop.
I'd be pissed too.....although I probably would have just moved the damn thing before it got to that point in the first place.
