Veteran Tyler Truitt has been told by the city of Huntsville, Alabama that they can no longer live in their off-the-grid home because their trailer is not hooked up to the city’s utilities system, making it ‘unsafe’.
The 27-year-old and his girlfriend are living completely independent of city utilities – utilizing solar panels and catching rainwater on their 2 acre property.
Huntsville officials have filed suit against Truitt and told him he will be arrested for trespassing should he set foot on his property.

It is not illegal or uncons$#%&!@*utional to do that and a city does not have the right or Authority to override the freedom in our Cons$#%&!@*ution. The veteran should go to the state government and demand the removal of the City Council the governor does have that authority. I can bet you this if any of them wanted to live off the grid that wouldn’t be no problem with that they just don’t want anybody else been able to do it besides somebody’s gotta pay for that 13% pay increase they all died due to the mayor making that agreement and the rest of the city employees didn’t get nothing and won’t get nothing the only thing thank you end up getting is fired cuz I disagree with the City Council but as a taxpayer I have every right to complain
INSANE ! ! ! !
Burn the city townhall down
Why this is America, if he wants to live off the grid then let him.as long as he is paying his taxs and the have a septic tank system then he is within his rights as an American.
This is the governance the Declaration of Independence warned us about.
Haha first off just because he’s a veteran doesn’t mean anything. If you saw all the trash I have in the military along with all the people so ignorant you wonder how they ever even past the basic exams you wouldn’t be afraid at all. If he lives in town then he’s going to have to abide by city codes. If he didn’t like the codes he shouldn’t have bought a home in said area.
The president wants us all to live like this. The city fathers are total idiots.Why can they arrest him for what the goverment is asking people to do? He is a vet. He has earned the right to live where he wants to without any government official telling him what to do. If he wants to live like that, more power to him. We are suppose to have freedoms in this country. They are trying to take away a vets freedom, what would they do to the rest of us? If they want to arrest someone why don’t they arrest the real racist criminals?
Because the city isn’t getting utility tax money.
If the government is not making money off us we are useless
you mean to tell me a corporation masquerading as a community sued this guy for not being enslaved by them? and thats how the news goes…
