My property is not the county dump!

Sorry to hear of your troubles.

It is like a change in people all over the place. I have had talks with people "flying" over speed bumps in 25mph zones on private roads.
"Didn't know it was private".
"Didn't see the sign."
"Didn't see the bump."

OK, well how about being nice and slow down so as not to freak out my animals?

"Didn't see the animals."
"Didn't see the sign."
"Didn't see the barn."
"Didn't know you had animals."

OK, now that you see the signs, road, bump, animals, barns and I am talking to you "How about slowing down?"

OK. NOT.

Does Ca have a Forestry Dept? My local Al forester just loves to work trash cases. Somebody has been littering in a pretty forest and all forests are pretty. He also has police powers. Our county DA will prosecute.

I like the reply that has some names of some of my friends also, they talk, people listen.

I just told the deadbeat neighbor kid to please not pull off the road on my grass to get to the area he is killing on his. He told me he did not know where the line was..........the place where I do not cut grass would be a clue..

We will have a building project soon, I would hate a for a pound or two of nails to spill out right there.

The trash would be cleaned up and dumped in the first yard that I had an addy from an envelope.

When we lived in town, we lived on a main road, but the speed limit was 25 mph. That was greatly ignored, and I was paranoid that one of the neighbor kids was going to eventually get hit, to the point of trying to get the village to put a speed bump in front of the house. Couldn't get them to do that, and they never did start running radar either. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif

Gary,
Glad to know I wasn't the only one who thought of Alice's Restaurant when I read about sifting through the trash. That one's a classic for me.

Me too.

I just wonder where the "27 8x10 color glossy pictures with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one" are?

I was coming home from work one day and notice a bunch of boxes setting about 10 foot off the road I live on. I stopped to check it out and found hundreds of magazines. Every one had the same address label and I knew where this person lived /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

About dusky dark I told my wife we needed to make a delivery. I loaded up all the boxes in the back of my truck. It was dark by then so we headed to our delivery point. The wife pulled up to this person's long paved driveway and I jumped out to unload. I stacked the boxes all the way across their driveway so they couldn't leave or enter unless to moved them /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

BillyP . . . excellent . . . I would have prayed for a heavy rain that night and hoped that the boxes would have collapsed so they would have had a much harder time picking them up!!! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Oh yea Danny that was me. One night when I lived on a corner street the kids stopped in front of my house. Got out of the car screaming at 3am on a worknight. One pulls out and drives through my front lawn. Now I'm up at this point. Downstairs I go and get the Mossburg. Load 3 rounds up and outside in my shorts I go. Well one kid is smashing glass in the street. He was drunk. My first round goes into the air to get their attention. I walk up and tell them to keep moving along. No problems after that.
I'm in town getting milk a few days later and the local babysitter we use says to me did you shoot a gun off the other night? I said yea why, she said it's all over school. I told her to tell the kids to leave me alone and I'll do the same. Worked out well.
This isn't the right way to deal with the situation but it's my way. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

ByronBob,
Your method can work but if some of the other party happens to be carrying, then an very ugly situation can result. Alcohol and gun powder do not mix well. Your method is fairly common here in east central KY, however I know of a couple of similiar situations that got out of hand and left bodies around. For that reason I never threaten with a gun unless absolutely necessary for protection of life. But then this is just my way....
