I'd say it's safe to just let this go. If you're treated unkindly by 
your neighbors or any community you're interacting with, there's no 
authority to go to as long as they don't break the law. Herein, the 
leader of this community has a strong opinion that this community 
shouldn't be policed, which makes things as cut and dried as it gets. No 
reply needed. Thanks. -- Andrei
