Just called the cops on the douchebag next door

[Amerigo Vespucci]

This guy is a "gangsta" prick who lives with mommy and daddy. Has a piece of shit 70s Detroit car of some sort, maybe a Buick. Has the world's worst stereo in the car, it just buzzes and vibrates and shakes the fucking EARTH, and the little fuck likes to ride down the street real low and slow with that rap shit blasting out of the car.

Today, I don't know what the fuck he was doing, but he was out there 15 minutes, maybe more, and that shit was cutting through my brain like a hot knife through butter.

This is basically a quiet, working-class neighborhood with another three or four assholes like this guy.

So the cops showed up, and cuffed him, and threw him in the back of the car.

As they were leaving (while they were still there) he yelled out "THIS IS BULLSHIT! FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING ASSHOLES!"

After they left, he got in the car, turned the stereo full blast, and did a s-l-o-w "fuck you" u-turn in the intersection on front of my house.

So I called and asked to speak with the officer.

He said "First of all, I've got to tell you, this guy is a real asshole...I'm sorry you have to live there."

He said they cuffed him and put him in the car because he was an asshole, IMMEDIATELY. "We wrote him a pretty hefty ticket. He didn't like that."

Enough is enough. I've lived here three years and have put up with this little prick for all that time. I hope he enjoys paying that ticket.

1. Subwoofers in cars should be a capital offense, and police should be able to do right there and then

Assholes.

The only reason for having a subwoofer in a car is to be a prick. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with "music appreciation". It's SOLELY to be a prick.

Communities need to have one or two cops whose only job is noise enforcement (loud cars, loud parties, loud yelling/shouting, loud stereos), and the tickets/fines for noise violations should be utterly ludicrous in comparison to other fines, since it's such a total violation of other peoples' quality of life.

And they really should make it illegal to have subwoofers in vehicles - illegal to make, to buy, or to install.

3. And the cops...who were EXTREMELY cool and professional...

...immediately recognized this guy as a prick and gave him a prick's rewards.

Some days, we see justice.

:patriot:

2. I had a similar little prick in my neighborhood in SF

and I recruited two other neighbors to call the PD every single fucking time he went over the top. We were lucky because Taraval Station came out every time and got in his face.

That was the only way we got him to go away finally. I hope you have some neighbors to help and good response because that is the worst. :rant:

4. I am the only neighbor who calls about anything.

The woman across the street had one car broken into (driver's door window smashed) and another keyed, and she called, but other than that, all of the bullshit in this neighborhood gets reported by ME.

And I don't consider myself a narc at all. I call when people make excessive noise and litter on my property. If I can;t hear them or see them, it's none of my business.

5. It's not unreasonable to expect quiet enjoyment of your home. n/t

6. I live in Suburbia, with all $250K homes. SAME FRICKIN' NOISE and even ADULT NEIGHBOR TRESPASSERS!

Ther booming car stereos.
The recreational motorcyclist cater-corner from me.
But you haven't lived until you've called the cops on the guy from across the street whose fireworks LANDED IN YOUR YARD.

12. There are three different "BRAPPPPPPPPPP" motorcyclists in the neighborhood

When they pass the intersection they just crank it and go "BRAPPPPPPPPPP"...sometimes they set off car alarms. Then there's another punk-ass across the street with an El Camino that sounds like it has an aircraft engine in it. He sits in the car for 20 minutes at a time and just guns the motor. This happens on certain occasions at 7:30 AM.

It's a nice low-key working class neighborhood with about a half dozen assholes who have a "daily routine."

7. Way back in the early-to-mid-80's, my friend got a job as the City "Electronics Technician"...

.
.
.
...having JUST graduated from tech school for it (but having been
raised by parents with an electronics shop). GREAT guy... worked
a full-time job AND a 16-hour weekend gig as a gas station jock
while going to school full-time at night for two years (darn near
killed himself -- BUT tripled his full-time job's salary overnight when
he graduated and got the new job).
.
.
He maintained and fixed things like police car radios and city park
P.A. systems and the like.
.
.
He used to throw a big annual party -- notified all the neighbors...
warning them of the upcoming once-a-year brouhaha, inviting them
to join in the fun and asking them to PLEASE let him know if the
noise were upsetting to them after 10 PM.
.
.
Nice guy -- he would have shut right down if he ever got a late-night
complaint.
.
.
Never got a complaint. BUT -- he was brilliant in his being prepared
for the worst!!! The city had a regulation that required a decibel
meter be used before any noise ordinance ticket could be issued
(this was long before rolling sub-woofers). The city had two of
those meters in their police inventory (arsenal).
.
.
A coupla days before his party, he would call both meters into his
shop for "routine maintenance", dismantle them... and party on.
.
.
He threw his own graduation party and he and I got up at three in the
morning to roast a pig -- showing restraint by only drinking beer and
refraining from the Jack Daniels until exactly noon.
.
.
My GF told me later that friends had to pour me into her car around
7 PM and I literally cried all the way home because "(sob) I didn't
get any pig!!!!"

8. Like this?

One of the "Cars of Choice" for the "Crip-Hop" Crowd,Along with early to mid 70's Impalas,mid 80's Buick Regals and Centruys,and if they have a bit'O Cash 63-64 Impala Verts.

No better way to destroy the the handling,braking and ride of a fairly nice mid level Auto than to put a set of "Slammin 24's" on a car designed for 15 to 17 in Wheels.

Edit to fix bad Spellin and grammar

11. Donk-a-licious!

Actually, I hate those friggin things.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

13. YES...it is a white version of that EXACT CAR, minus the fancy wheels.

The little shit sits behind the wheel and tries to look badass. You should have heard him crying today when the cop handed him the ticket. Not badass at all.

:rofl:

9. Why call the cops?

Just stomop his ass and be done with it.

10. You're a man after my own heart

I finally called the cops on the jerks next door after years of their large dog and two brats (and their friends) being in my yard more than their own. No matter how many times I told them and their parents to get out and stay out, nothing worked until the cops came by and had a chat with them. I wish I had called the police years earlier.

14. I had a neighbor like that one time. So what I did was I went outside

on the balcony and I yelled. I yelled louder than the stupid noise. And I kept yelling loud, and violently loud, 'TURN THE MUSIC DOWN, I SAID TURN THE MUSIC DOWN.'
Even after he turned it down. It frightened him. It would have frightened anyone who heard me. Because I yelled so loud and viciously that anyone listening would have thought I was about to shoot him.
He turned the music down very fast. He started to say, several times "I'm sorry, I'm sorry".
And after that, every time he turned it on, it was very quiet.
I was yelling so loud my words were vibrating his chest. And so every time he turned that stereo on again he could feel that violent vibration, not from his stupid stereo, but from my words.
And the funny thing was, there were some kids in a nearby house, summer with windows open, who were in the process of having a birthday party. Maybe all 6 or 8 year olds.
And after he turned it down, after the exhange was over and done. Those little kids cheered. A cheer went up from them. The noise had been bothering them, and someone did something about it for them.
