I parked my truck on it. Somehow they managed to snatch it out from under when I wasn't looking.(one side unplugged, the other pulled)

I spoke with the main office rep of construction for my area.

Next stop is calling the police for trespassers.

Technically they were stealing electricity from you

Oh, I learned that if you see a Star Wars themed pumpkin carving kit at Target you should buy it immediately. Because a week later when you tell your sister about it and she couldn't find it at her Target then asks you to get it from your Target and mail it to her, it won't be at your Target either.

Actually my husband learned this today. And I learned that I have to stop at all the Targets between home and work tomorrow to see if they have it.

No, they were running the cord from a generator. There is a lot on both sides of us being built and about 10 more all here in our cu-de-sac, they were just taking the shortcut with the cord from another job site but they still shouldn't be doing it. They constantly have to move vehicles because they are blocking the driveway or the road, it's really getting quite annoying now. We have the city involved and the inspectors and code violations side are all out here poking around now. They actually took a forklift though the neighbors yard and left some pretty big ruts. She's pissed and has the cops here about once a day for shit....

So what I've learned from this is DR Horton doesn't really give a crap about you if you aren't living in or buying their houses...

Isn't it my American right to go out in my yard and wave my firearms around?

Wonder what the TX legality is on trespassing in this case is. Most likely thanks to some douchebag politician, it resides with the builder, not the homeowner.
