Well, this sure doesn’t sound good…

And it sounds like it might be borderline illegal!

What am I talking about?

The man who wrote the story below explained why he’s seeing red because of what some local guy did to the park where he likes to spend time with his brother.

Take a look at what he had to say and see what you think about this unusual situation…

Entitled neighborhood guys hijacked our public park and poured concrete everywhere just to stop us from playing.

“​I went to play at a local park with my brother.

It used to be perfect, just nice grass and a wide, plain open ground where everyone could hang out.

Wow…

​Now, the local retired guys have completely taken it over.

They built this useless fountain-like thing right in the middle of the ground explicitly to discourage anyone from playing sports.

On top of that, they laid down solid cement concrete paths crisscrossing right through the middle of the play area.

This is ridiculous!

​Today, they chased us out, yelling that they pay for the maintenance so they make the rules.

They let little kids stay but kicked us out, telling us to walk 5-6 km away if we want to play.

I pay taxes, too!

Do they even have the legal right to alter a public park with concrete and ban taxpayers?

Has anyone else dealt with this kind of neighborhood mafia?”

And here’s what folks had to say about this on Reddit.

This person didn’t hold back.

Another Reddit user spoke up.

This is weird, right?

It sounds like some mafia-type activity!

It sounds like he might be to get his local city council involved to get to the bottom of this.

These guys are trying to control the whole neighborhood…
