EXCLUSIVE: Vet Fighting City Hall to Live off the Grid on His Own Property Describes His Ordeal

• http://truthinmedia.com

Last week, Truth in Media reported on a dispute, originally covered by WAFF-TV, between Marine Corps veteran Tyler Truitt and the City of Huntsville, wherein city officials are trying to condemn Truitt's off-the-grid home and drive him off his land. Truitt opted to provide power, water, and waste removal for his home that he shares with his girlfriend through renewable means like solar power, rainwater collection, and composting rather than by hooking up to city utilities, which city authorities say makes his property a danger to the public. Truitt says that he signed up for the military to fight for Americans' freedoms but feels that, now that he is back on US soil, his own property rights are under threat.
