On November 11, 2009, angry mobile home park residents from 5 Tatum Kaplan owned parks took part in a protest at Mobile Community Management's Santa Ana office. Protesters carrying signs lined both sides of the busy street at 1801 E. Edinger Ave. The main issues were outrageous rents, poorly maintained parks and unfair business practices. The demonstration was peaceful and well organized but it appeared that MCM felt intimidated by the 150 or so protesters and called upon security to protect themselves.
There is another demonstration scheduled for Saturday, November 14, 2009 between 11:00am and 1:00pm. The turn out is expected to be much larger.
I am including several pictures from the demonstration. The signs seem to say it all.

The building across the street is where MCM is located.
Some feel there is no help from legislators.
Many hid their faces behind signs...for fear of retaliation???
