Why can't Americans grow vegetables in their front yard?

It has come to my attention that people are forced to uproot their own produce on their own fucking property. This is absolutely outrageous. How is this even lawful?!

So much for that famous American "freedom" huh?

>Before 1978, it was illegal for Americans to brew beer at home. That year, President Jimmy Carter signed into law a bill that allowed Americans to make beer (and wine) at home, so long as they didn’t sell it.

Now I know why Jews hate him.

without even reading this shit I can tell you it will be because they are growing in the front yard which makes the house look like shit and their neighbors house prices drop
when you're middle class you are expected to uphold a base level of decency and growing turnips on the street is poor people behaviour, you probably wouldn't understand mate

Who the fuck puts their garden in front of the house?

because of those FILTHY NIGGER FUCKS!!!

orwellian shithole

Jimmy Carter was hated because he was an utter retard of a president

because that would imply they eat vegetables

What does the neighbor's yard have anything to do with your property price? Future buyers ain't gonna buy THEIR yard, but YOUR house.

This is pants on head retarded.

>americans will never know the pleasure of maintaining a nice garden and eating your own fresh grown vegetables
probably because of this

Too fat to grow vegetable

>opinions

Because freedumbs and democracy

Because that's what backyards are for, user.

only cucks eat a diet with a sizeable amount of vegetables

us europeans should know this better than anyone else

neighbours actions can block your views, make the street uglier, introduce pests, barking dogs, rent out houses to criminals, meth labs
there are so many things neighbours can do to lower your house price which is an investment needed for the majority of peoples retirement plans so government regulations mitigate that problem giving people more confidence in the housing market
if this was on an acre block and nobody could see the garden there would be no issue, these people are just a couple of cunts with no concern for people around them

Because homeowner's assocations are awful commie bullshit. I didn't even need to read the article to know that's what the problem is.

They're supposed to just keep people from doing ridiculous shit on their properties to keep single households from ruining property prices for the whole neighborhood. More often than not though, they're just outlets for old local busybodies to enforce their stupid tastes on other people through authoritarian means.

It's what you get for falling for the suburban meme though.

A grown-up on my Sup Forums?

>baww I can't retire unless my neighbor paints his house the right shade of pink and buys his GMO produce sprayed with AIDs from the supermarket like a good goy
yes very "adult"

>comparing growing vegetables to having meth lab or crackhouse

You're insane.

this is a thing here in my town
and it looks like shit
they probably look better down in the netherlands but here it looks just gross green and brown
less than 1 out of 5 actually care about their ass-garden
