So I get home and the 15 yr old right next door starts throwing fastball baseball directly at my 02 L and wifes 01 cobra. I kindly ask for them to just not throw directly at the cars. He's 8 ft away. ****y smart a$$ says that he can do whatever he wants. After a long day of work I just say OK, do it again and he can talk with the cops. Then I go inside, they were ok in the street, 5 min later they go inside. The next day the mother becomes histerical threatining her son blah blah blah. I remain calm and ask her if she wants to hear what happened 5 times. She is just histerical and never did hear what happened. My wife and I go inside. She waves down a cop. He says that the boys can play anywhere they want. He also stated that she is very irrational, and has had many problems with her in the past. If they damage a car then they have homeowners (of course I have to prove it). I order an infrared camera to watch the L and cobra. While it's being shipped here, they put 2 baseball dents in our beater car. We haven't even spooken to them. The boy also drives to school EVERYDAY. And shines a laser beam into our pitbulls eyes at night. Our house went on the market today. I want to just rip somebody a new one, but we remain calm because our cars will be trashed by them. Sorry this is so long.

 

sorry to hear that. It is probably best to just lay low until you move, so as they don't do something to your cars. But once you move, i would go back over there and let them have it ....

 

Get yourself a bag of baseballs and some rubber gloves (no fingerprints) and if they start doing it again, aim for their heads. Kids like that don't understand talking.

I used to have a problem with kids in the apartment complex next to a house I was living in throwing rocks at our dogs. One day I came home while they were doing it, and I started hurling the rocks back at them. I beamed one of them right in the head, and they never came back.

 

If you do get some pic's of these little ba$turds actually doing some damage, don't hesitate to make a police report. Not much will happen to the kids, but the parents will not like getting hit in the pocket book.

 

No lights on, pitch black outside. 12 infrared lights in the camera


Same camera in the morning


Sick people, I am real close to loosing my cool and saying prove it. As was mentioned, I will at least wait. Not well liked people though. They have BB holes on the outside front of their house. No I know why. At least I can prove something with this 24/7 setup. And can even burn a movie to a VCR or even better is SVCD. Works great!

 

you need to get a pitching machine and about 500 baseball set it up in your yard get it goin about 90 and wail away aththeir house cars kids dogs fish plastic flamingos lawn gnomes or anything else you could hit over there.....that ill teach em

 

Give me the info on the camera

Sorry to hear some people are just trash. If i was you i would take the lightning and hook up your neighbors trailer while they are sleeping at nite and throw it off a bridge. I know they live in a house but sounds like they are trailer trash .

 

Way to go Sal!

air1kdf: I'd pay an attorney to write a letter outlining your right to recoup any losses/damage to your private property--how you will sue to the full extent of the law, and anything else your attorney can come up with. Give them no slack.

Please protect your pits--I hope they are trained not to eat ANYTHING that is not put in their dish--by you.

You could put up a really ugly wall (cheap & quick) of some sort? The uglyier the better!
And when they approach you about it, tell them it's because "YOU won't control YOUR kids!" "If your kids would behave? The wall very well might come down."

 

This stuff will calm them down or drive them out...put it in the AC unit or crawl space vents...make sure it is down wind from you. You can get it at any sporting goods hunting supply or even Wal-mart.

 

There was a popular post about dealing with a neighbor's cats some time back that may apply here. As you read the suggestions, just substitute kids for cats.

Should take care of the problem

 

The mom has already had numerous visits from the cops because she is irrational and has caused lots of problems...and the cops are using THAT as an excuse to blow you off????? What a crock! I think the lawyer idea sounds pretty good, except that when you sue her or bring her to small claims court, she'll ignore the restitution order...that or they have nothing to take anyway.

These brats and their parents are one of the reasons schools are so hosed up these days...teachers spend all their time dealing with society's "trash" instead of teaching.

I hope you sell your place FAST. Either that or you'll have to figure out something really down and nasty to "convince" the brats that if they damage your truck you'll cut off their *****.

 

im going with dale1999 on this issue. Thats a good one.
try to video tape this kid driving to school a couple days-that could get you somewhere if anything ever happens. It must be tough having a cobra AND a lightening. good luck!

 

Looks like it's time for a 3 car garage on at least 2.5ac. We got run out of our old neighborhood about 3yrs ago. Took a 40K hit on the house just to go, but was well worth it. The new hood has CC&R's up the a$$ and I don't mind at all. Although they don't work for neighborhood kids, it sure keeps the place clean. We also have our own private security which we can call if needed. The only thing flying around here are golf *****, maybe you could set up a tee on your front lawn and start hacking. Good luck, I know what your going through.
