Every single person in that neighborhood should get their dogs to piss and shit in her yard every day until she agrees to unblock that pipe. She put out flyers that basically said she didn't care if every home in the neighborhood floods so I have zero sympathy for her
No they shouldn't. It seems she's mostly in her right. There doesn't seem to be an easement, which would mean the pipe on her land is hers. It sounds like the problem had been going on for a long time, and she decided to fix it.
And, in typical Florida/conservative style, they didn't want government involvement until they had a problem that needed fixing. Which I find doubly hilarious.
The community should be angry at themselves and their leadership
It doesn’t matter if the pipe is hers. You cannot divert water onto a neighbors property in that manner. This is standard law across the US.

I don't follow. Couldn't you also claim the opposite as well? That neighbors are diverting water to her property?
Edit: Nevermind. I read the article and yeah, the neighbors may have a case. But I'd like to know the full story.
