If someone told me that I couldn't leave my garage door open, I'd laugh my butt off at them... I can't believe those people expect to be taken seriously. It's no wonder there are so many screwed up families today. Too many spending too much time worrying about other people instead of worrying about what's going on inside of their own.

They may be of good character, but they can keep their good character and junk cars elsewhere not next to me. Good character doesn't improve my resell values, but junk cars definitely lowers them.
It's all strictly business so try not to read too much into HOA's and over generalize the people who are ok with living within established rules. Being a jerk is making one's neighbors look like they live in a dumpy neighborhood because somebody doesn't want to maintain their yard.
