I ...I remember being 14 with a can of spraypaint... I tagged a few buildings and my school and it was just a laugh. We didn't consider it a big crime, it was just a bit of fun. These kids just want to annoy adults and it's working. I expect using a hose on them will be classed as assualt and you could find yourself on a criminal charge. My advice is get together with a few neighbours and kick the shit out of the little brats. When the cops come round just deny everything.Clawhammerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08307743446574818944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29762189.post-79921729929630096512008-07-10T12:09:00.000-04:002008-07-10T12:09:00.000-04:00deb- Seems like I hate most of my neigbours, too. ...deb- Seems like I hate most of my neigbours, too. This is the 1st house that I have lived in since I was a kid. We have been in townhouses, mostly. There is nothiong worse than sharing a wall with a weirdo. One place that we lived, the people that shared our wall would argue about sex - and then yell at us later b/c they knew that we heard. <BR/> I had great neighbours for 5 years, but moved away from that place...<BR/> Anyway, yes, I stopped at Andrea's. I had been there a couple of times before, and I had been praying for her and her family. She was so brave. <BR/> I hope that her family will be ok. It's going to be soo hard...Biddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07745873261311850810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29762189.post-31266131177293278252008-07-10T03:20:00.000-04:002008-07-10T03:20:00.000-04:00We live in the country but have neighbors.

They have always been the trashy dope dealer, child abusers kicked out of everyplace else type.I have always pretty much hated all my neighbors for 17 years.

Makes me look crazy(ier). <BR/> They know me well enough to know that I will not back down. I had two of them threaten me awhile back, and I stood my ground. They also seem to be somewhat afraid of Shawn. I am careful, though. I am worried about the dogs. Who knows what someone might do to a little dog outside. That is what worried me. <BR/> You know, I want to give everyone a chance and I want to like everyone. I do. Too bad that I was so wrong this time. <BR/> I think the thing that upset me the most was the damage done to the church. It almost made me cry. The elderly parishoners were scared silly by what they thought were real gangs, and then they had to clean up the mess. The average age of the people at that chucrh has got to be 70. <BR/> Is it a double sin to do this to a church???Biddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07745873261311850810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29762189.post-14107165289756564332008-07-09T23:31:00.000-04:002008-07-09T23:31:00.000-04:00I have always believed that group homes do not wor...I have always believed that group homes do not work, and then you came along and reinforced that belief 100%! Thanks! LOL! The cops probably thought that the kids had been in and out of the cop-shop so many times, that one more visit wouldn't even faze them. I agree, though, those little perps should have been made to clean up ALL their mess! But that is what happens when you let liberals run the country! No one has to pay for the actions of ne'er-do-wells, except their victims. One word of warning, if you, yourself, do anything towards them, like hosing them down, they WILL retailate and escalate, and you don't want your family involved with that. Just call the cops everytime you see them loitering, and eventually the City will have to do something to stop all the costs of policing the place. Good luck!<BR/><BR/>P.S. Go back into my archives and read about the group home I had to deal with!Phoenix5https://www.blogger.com/profile/06717890637366842487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29762189.post-79402088682118349392008-07-09T20:27:00.000-04:002008-07-09T20:27:00.000-04:00burfica- I hear you.

Not even the 'parents' have done anything. If this was my kid, I would kick some serious ass. Mind you, I hope that I have taught my kids better...<BR/><BR/>manic - Sigh. You know, I would love to do that - give the little Christers a good kick in the arse. If I did, I would be charged and the kids would be made into victims. <BR/> I am watching them, and they are one step away from getting hosed down.

It makes me sick to see my little street now. <BR/> From now on, when I see a kid hanging out on the church steps, they have 5 seconds to leave before they meet my garden hose. <BR/><BR/>tod - I wanted to chase the liitle arseholes away from the church steps the 1st time that they spent the night there. <BR/> The thing that kills me is that these kids live in a group home and are supposed to be supervised. I have NEVER seen an adult at that house. NOT ONCE. WHERE the hell were the adults when these hooligans were running the streets at 4 am???? Someone needs to take responsibility, and it shouldn't be the property owners. <BR/><BR/>cindydianne - I was gonna call them something else....<BR/><BR/>lw - Why didn't the cops grab em up? Not a clue, but I would like know the answer as much as you would. <BR/> I think that these kids need a swift kick in the behind. I am just the one to do it, too.Biddiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07745873261311850810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29762189.post-13369780309929647572008-07-09T12:03:00.000-04:002008-07-09T12:03:00.000-04:00so why didn't the police grab each one of the kids...so why didn't the police grab each one of the kids and make them clean it all up, you know in days way back this is what would have happened, sometimes changes are not for the best, a lot of the youths of today have no respect.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29762189.post-42522064164504254472008-07-09T09:02:00.000-04:002008-07-09T09:02:00.000-04:00Awhhh!That's just terrible.
