I have a few weird neighbors. They are in their 20's-35's, and htey are ALWAYS standing outside around their cars just talking. They are there early in the morning until 1 in the morning. I know they don't have jobs. The cars they drive are decent which leads me to believe they are selling drugs. Is there anything I can do to get rid of these guys?
Try this on for size: I have some "stereotypical neighbors" (I won't elaborate b/c I don't want to move this to D&D) who are always getting into fights (man and multiple women) between 2am and 4am. Doors are slamming, girls are yelling... Two weeks ago, after one such incident when I opened my window and yelled "Shut the **** up, people are trying to sleep you assclowns!". When I headed of to work that morning, the car next to me (the one where my neighbor parks his car) was TOTALLY DESTROYED!!! windows smashed, doors taken off the hinges, tires slashed... somone basically went Punk'd Wilmer Valderamma style on his ride (and to boot, there is a different car parked in his assigned spot every night.) Ugh... neighbors!
Approach them for drugs. If they are selling, turn them in if you want. If you live in an apartment, though, I would also think about moving. That stuff can come back to haunt you, unfortunately, but do what you think is right. They may just be cool guys who aren't selling drugs that you might want to approach anyway.
Yeah, I can just picture that one... a nervous LooneyToon... "Hey fellas, umm.. uuhhh... errr... got some umm... errr... crack on ya?" Probably wouldn't end well.
Very true. Maybe they think you're the wierdo because you are always sitting inside your apartment just watching TV until early in the morning. With a coffee table and a TV Guide in front of you, you're easily set up to rip out a page of your mag, roll it up, and sniff away... Maybe they think YOU'RE the one doing drugs because you aren't chilling outside like they are, but instead are holed up in your apartment so the cops can't see what you're up to. Maybe they'll turn YOU in after they give you talcolm powder instead of crack.
lol, I that picture below of that cartoon looks just like them. Drinking beer. Yesterday the new guy that moved in below me was talking to them. I was trying to read their lips through my bedroom window but I couldn't. They have to be up to something. Could I contact HPD and tell them I'm very suspicious about these clowns?
Take a Picture [polaroid . . leave no finger prints] type up a nice letter . . .. . [non self addressed] and drive accross town and mail it to the cops never let anyone know what is going on . . . do this . . say once a week or twice a month after a while. .the cops will have to look into it Rocket River Anonymous Tips. . . i think they work [I've never done this but it seems like it should work]
Excellent post. Toon, you have no idea what's goin on out there and, for whatever reason, won't find out. If they're causing problems (which you didn't mention) make it your business by calling the cops or just mind your own business altogether. If you have no evidence of wrongdoing then leave them alone and stop judging books by their covers. Who are you to assume what's going on out there? Just as drapg stated, they could have the same assumptions about you.
I'm glad you taught your kids my name They scream it as they run away They say it's getting worse out there Let me welcome you to the climate of fear I am the stranger Your paranoia created me A picture perfect scary freak A violent drugged out two-bit thief Just like they show them on TV You lock your car door when I walk by You won't even look me in the eye I walk alone down the street at night Triggering every sensor-security light I am the stranger You lock me out of your world But you won't leave me alone Concerned neighbors call the cops on me For going into my own home Look at you, you're scared of life Just waiting to be killed, saying "If I don't call the cops on you my neighbor will" But your neighbor Is the stranger
Just before we moved we had some people move in next door who had ALOT of visitors at all hours of the day.....if you know what I mean. Anyway they moved in just as we were getting ready to move out (Thank goodness!). We once had some low life knock on our front door asking if we knew if the people next door were home or not! We now live in a much nicer area and while the woman next door doesnt shut up.....good neighbors are priceless!
