Bull***...unless you live in some suburb of Peking.

He's correct, this time.
When moving into a "housing development" like he claims, one must
follow and abide by the rules of that community.

Well, no...not quite. You're referring to a homeowner's association,
which can indeed impose restrictions on things like maintaining the
outward appearance of homes, number of permanent residents of the home,
etc. But you need to brush up a bit on the basic concepts of U.S. law.
Any agreement that fundamentally strips someone of his/her
Constitutional rights would be, on its face, fundamentally
unenforceable. As someone else already pointed out you could not, for
example, prohibit mionority homeowners, or prohibit non-minority owners
from having minorities as guests in their homes...no matter what kind
of nonsense the association chose to put in the agreement.

If I move into Spaz's neighborhood (though I wouldn't...I don't really
like trailer parks) and choose to keep a legal firearm in my bedside
table for personal protection, there isn't ***-all he or the
association can do about it. Association agreements don't have the
force of law, nor do they supercede local, state or federal law.
