Jerk Neighbors

[recon532002]

Hey Brothers I have a real problem with a group of people who live next to me. They happen to have a wide screen TV and home theater system. At night they think its ok to disturb others till 3:00 am. I have called police and brought it to the attention to my land lord. It works for about a week and then it goes right back to the way it was. I won't go into bashing these people, I know they are lowlifes but I am about to do the Marine Hymn on his face if something doesn't happen to change the situation. there is no reasoning behind there bull**** I have done nothing wrong. Any peacefull advice will be valuable

I have to preface by asking why be peaceful when they are not?

Get a pit and let that idiot know that the dog does not like loud noise at night

I have 3 pits and my neighbors are real nice to me

Start documenting everytime this happens..
Tape record for further proof...

You have to have a noise ordinance...
Sooner or later the police have to do something, with the help of the the landlord......

My two cents

Follow the drifter's advice and find out if there is a noise ordinance. Exhaust all legal options available to you.

HOWEVER, if that doesn't work....

First, get locking gas caps for all your vehicles. Second, a Big bag of sugar for theirs.

Take up a nice, peacefull hobby that you like to do at around 0700. Grinding metal is a pleasant sound, and a skill saw going through a couple of 2x4's sounds "devine"

[SGTBrentG]

Sit on your porch cleaning and talking to your weapons!

[erased]

I have to agree with Gunny Max, but c'mon, reveille is at 0400.

[GUNNY MAX]

And I agree with you Erased. Only wake them with a siren in their ear

But seriously, I'm pretty sure that in most places, you can start "construction operations" at 0700 and it is within city/county ordinances. It is in Carlsbad anyways.

I would recommend, anything by Ted Nugent "Great White Buffalo" or "Yank Me, Crank Me" works well...

Yes, this would be the next most legal way to pay back (other than prosecuting). As Gunny Max said, most areas allow work to commence at 0700. Some scrap steel (or an old car) and a grinder would do nicely. Put a metal cutting blade on a Saws-All and go crazy. Tell your nice neighbors what you are doing so they won't get upset with you. They might help.

Most places have ords on excessively loud music at any time. It would be your luck the cops would cite you, not them.

jetdawg you wouldnt have those in the state of Kansas for very long.. you couldnt stand the insurance premiums on all three of your pits. 1 million dollars on each dog if they are pits and locked down in a cage 4x8 with muzzels.. To many of the pits have mauled people here in Kansas City Kansas. alot of people have moved out because of the Law only to find out other cites surrounding us have the same law..

[hrscowboy]

About 3:00 am in the Morning go over beat on the door and ask them if they have seen your 12 foot 150 lbs python that he got loose from his cage and is not in the house anywhere..

Recon, I see you're around my age, where you're bull**** tolerance level drops. I feel for you, having a neighbor like that really sucks! Calling the cops, as you've learned, is pretty much a waste of time. It seems to me that you have two choices: (1) like Drifter said, document all the b/s and file a complaint in court or (2) beat on the butt-wipe's door and let him know up front and personal that you've had enough of his shxt. Most low-life's don't understand "nice" or neighborly ways, you pretty much have to get on their level of comprehension. It worked for me, course now, understand I ended up in court with a restraining order, but, no more problems from the dipstick down the street. Mission accomplished! Good luck to you.

I can't speak for all PDs, but when I was on the job, if we substantiated a noise complaint, the violator got one warning. If we came back on a second call and heard the noise again ourselves, it was time for a paper bullet. A third visit involved a trip to jail. These visits didn't have to be in the same night.

A police report was always done and the neighbor could always seek a complaint through the city prosecutor if the police didn't actually witness the excessive noise.

However, some *******s just didn't get the message until they ended up in jail. And if they had been drinking, we held them until they were sober (in our opinion) before they could bail out (for $200 if I was the supervisor in charge). A bail bond condition was always no contact of any sort with the complainant.

We didn't have time to make multiple runs on noise complaints that we did witness ourselves. Nip them in the bud as quickly as possible.

Do you rent or own your house? I own a rental house and the lease contains a clause stating, "The tenant is entitled to the quiet enjoyment of the premises............."

If you rent, or if the neighbors rent, you might want to put the onus on the landlords.
