Nosy Neighbors

[Gator 45/70]

All door knocking religious groups that come around are hurriedly directed to nosy neighbors house post haste to deliver the word

Since I tell said religious group, I'm good where I'm at with the Lord, But you see that house over there, I point in the direction needed..

Those people over there need Help !!! They own a bar-room/strip joint and do all kinds of un-godly things at night !!! Probably drugs too !!!

Those old lady's stick out that lower jaw and get mad as wet hens. Off they go, I have sent them on a mission from God !

If I were a random person who simply wanted to chat, you would tell me to leave without so much of a hello?

Around here, strangers just wanting to chat or get a glass of water are often scoping the place to come back later. If I don't know you and you show up on my property without a legitimate purpose to be there, you will be escorted off very quickly.

How's anybody gonna know? The drone just stops working and doesn't come back to the owner.

Nearest dwelling to me is more than a half mile away and I can't see any of them through the woods. If a drone is hovering over my place, I'm going to assume someone is watching me, likely to do me harm and I will take appropriate action, some of those 3 1/2 inch goose loads should do it.

The more smarter thieves of today are using drones to case you're place in the daytime,Keep that in mind, Kinda doubt anyone will come around to claim it, Game poachers too, Shoot em if you see em

You are completely within your right as a landowner to ask people to leave, but don't you think that is a rather ****ty attitude to have? If I were a random person who simply wanted to chat, you would tell me to leave without so much of a hello? Maybe in Texas things a different, but where I'm from visitors are rare, and everyone is welcome. I realize Texas is far more populated then where I've lived, so maybe someone shows up every week where you are.

If you met me, you might think that I'm one of the nicest guys that you ever met. And maybe not. My house is not visible from the county road and you would have to drive 3/4 of a mile on private land( oil well road) and cross two cattle guards to reach my house.
I have no idea of your situation up north, just like you have no idea of my situation down here. With privacy dwindling away as we speak, so are respect and manners.

I am out in the country here but in Northwest Ohio its grown up a lot more. Its interesting in that these people moved to get away from the cities now want to change the area to just what they moved to get away from.

This neighbor moved next door 4-5 years after we bought our place and were okay, But as time went on things changed. She first started on the pallet company ( established 1971 roughly 20 years before her) and a new trucking company ( She drove them out to a different area). They now run 1 or 2 businesses from their home and thats okay by them. She then became obsessed with property values and "improving" the area and started in on all the neighbors. Then She got appointed to the zoning board and really went off on her cause. She actually told one family They had mourned long enough and to get the sons property cleaned up. We now have to pull a permit for a side walk. When the new garage was being built she was out watching every day the contractors were here. The day we moved the shop equipment she was out watching the millwrights. She has been seen taking pics of my son mowing the lawn several times.

She was complaining about the farmer across the road to the township. One of the trustees mentioned it to me I told him that Deere 4 wheel drive is worth more than her house.

I tried being a good neighbor and working with them but thats over now. I simply ignore them and expect the same

Nobody is going to let someone just show up and set up shop for no reason. You would at least say hello, and see what the want right? Say a guy and some kids showed up, and you find out they would like to fish the lake behind your house. You would at least hear them out that far, and say yes or no.

Sitting on a front porch waiting for anyone to show up, and saying get lost without discretion is a horrible attitude to have.

As is said on high 1, PULL!

This morning at 12:22am I heard 8-9 gunshots. Went out on my front porch to scope out what was going on. I could hear loud yelling from the neighbor on the corner (probably 200 yards away). Big argument, I thought about calling the police, but Mike is kind of an *****, potentially a dangerous situation for the cops. So I just went back inside and went to bed. Guess I am not nosy enough.

Now the rest of the story: My daughter, who knows Mike, came over and asked if I had heard gunshots last night. Seems Mike and his girlfriend had had another couple over for monopoly and the visitor took exception to a comment by Mike which started an argument. Mike started yelling for them to leave his property. The visiting female pulled a gun so Mike pulled his gun and shot their car full of holes. I heard the word car a few times so evidently the argument I heard was about a holey car. Evidently the visiting male then beat Mike up before the cops (called by someone else) showed up. Cop decided shooting was self defense so Mike didn't get charged with discharging a firearm and no arrests were made.

Moral of the story: If you are going to shoot someone car full of holes you had better have a second magazine or leave a few rounds in the first magazine.

If it had been at my daughter's house or the old man across the street I would have gotten involved. I don't need to be involved in anything Mike is doing.

That monopoly game can get serious

I strongly suspect that Mike will try to find out who called the police. Many a LEO is aware of the Mike's out there and even they tread easily around them due tot heir unpredictable nature. One a few miles down the road was notorious for pulling handguns on power, cable and phone line crews.

It was meant to be a laughing comment - I don't believe that I could have gone back to sleep.
It's a shame that the Mike's of the world can't get together and live in their own little community.

Green Valley AZ is an unincorporated town in Pima county: a couple square miles of old people living fifty feet apart. Pastor says we have organ recitals, we tell you all about our organs. We watch and watch out for each other. Some of us can still drive a car, and some shouldn't try. Some old women are actually crazy probly always were nuts, especially the Cali imports. I don't think anybody would hear a gunshot, they are all deaf. The only action at night is the Sheriff and Border Patrol prowling all night. We get a steady supply of doorknockers, JW and soulwinners, I'm glad to see them, have them in pass out water bottles and see if I can save them. Lately the JWs skip my house, they go tiptoe past. My daughter's house has no neighbors between her and the Santa Ritas up in the high desert. The illegal invasion is not a worry, rather an awareness, been going on for years. There's a fence around the place and I know an excellent sermon about fences:
When you come to a fence you should wonder why it's there. It might be for your own protection.
