    That is pretty odd. To walk around with a basket of trash and strategically place it in front of certain houses.

    Invest in land mines.

    by laying the trash down, they may be trying to test if people use the driveway for a few days...to see if you're on vacation. Otherwise the trash will be disturbed by coming in and out of the driveway.

    I figured it was either that, or it was a signal to whoever was potentially seeking to rob my house that this was the house to hit.

    In either case I disposed of all that trash immediately.

    I have ADT. I pay about $1 a day. I think it's worth the peace of mind, but again, I think the ADT sign is the most important part.

    should've kept the trash there, lie in wait for them to rob your house and then BAM!, pull a zimmerman.

    Stylistically I think you mean to say incidentally, but if you don't see a lot of black residents around there, feel free to question it. Go ahead and ask your neighbors about it, video record this the next time it happens, and call the cops (local precinct, not 9-1-1).

    And leave some trash lined up on their property to deflect the attention from your house

    Seems suspicious. Are you in the Katy area?
