Folks, this is a little different than most of our videos, but subscriber Chris W asked if we had any formula's for getting rid of annoying neighbors, so I decided to tell you our annoying neighbor story and how we took care of it with a crayon. Enjoy!

I have a situation where a neighbor, an old lady that whenever she walks in front of my place, she leans on my micro garden and pinch my basils, always stealing my basils, one day I told her: "NO!" She got very mad. And she has her own micro garden too, why on earth she stares at my stuff and take it. Get your own. I can't stand people like that. Rude, disrespectful, entitled. She has nice clothes, have a good life, she has free rent where lives with the daughter and son in law, and coming to my micro garden and stealing from a hard worker that pays for everything. Give me a break. And she keeps staring at my garden, being noisy, and one day she stopped in front of my garden and in front of my kitchen window and staring, like she is checking if I am home and not seeing her, and then I stood up and started cleaning my throat to tell her, hinting her: "I saw you, get out, get lost, entitled" and she left. I feel like to put a camera that talks to her: "It's rude staring, you don't have business here, bug off!"

Demo Unit Hello Demo, although I see you point, I must respectfully disagree with you. I believe that politicians beco.e what we WANT them to become. Case in point, nearly every politician that has spoken truthfully, has lost; reason being is that almost everyone wants all these promises, but does not want to pay for them. Politicians can be the most truthful people in our society, if we demand that of them...if we elected the honest ones, that would start a trend. All they are is a reflection of our society. Everyone wants tax cuts and more benefits...Any politician who goes against these tenets will never get elected.

Demo Unit Hello there, D Unit!! Wow, many excellent points you have raised here, paragraph #1 spoke to the influence of media...I agree with you, they should be objective in their discourse, but it's almost like the don't even try anymore to hide their biases. Once I saw their actions through the election, and continuing to this day, against President Trump...he painted such a clear picture of them, coupled with Twitter (which you mention as well), I agree with you, politics will never be the same. After President Trump's historic meeting with Kim Jung Un, I was appalled with the line of questions from George Stephanopoulos. So far, I have to give Trump very high marks. Although I am dead against his ideas on immigration and a few other issues...what you said about the best ideas coming to the surface, giving the little guy at least a small chance. Heck, Dennis Rodman did more for peace with North Korea than the Bushs and the Clintons.

I love it. We had a neighbor who let their dog out to go potty on my front yard. I kept telling them and they just ignore me. So finally I picked up the poop with a plastic bag, hung it on a hanger with a nice polite note with my marker and paper. That was 10 years ago when we first move in our home. They never let their dog out and they moved out after a couple of years ago. We also have a neighbor who moved in our neighborhood. They would play basketball and make a huge mess and they would hit our cars, we live in a court street. So we talked to them nicely and nothing. Oh they love kittens and 4 kittens would come around our front porch and my kids love to pet them. They even accused us stealing their cats. So I told them we don’t want to steal them because they are not declaw and no vaccines. They would always be mad because of that. So last Christmas I told my kids to make cards and make presents for them and ever since they have been nice to us.

You neighbor is worried about security cameras because of his disability claim. If a security footage showed him up and about on your property when in fact his claim may be stating he is immobilized, then he could 1) loose all his benefits and 2) subject to a court hearing that may require him to return monies he collected in the past and possibly a sentence if he were proved fraudulent. It’s a lot to loose for him.

I could recount so many of his stories to you... He and his outfit as he called it, traipsed across Europe by the skin of their teeth since their landing.. The one thing I always had to assure him of before he passed was that God would forgive him for everything he did in the war.. Just a good ole country boy.. a boy who went there and came back a man.. Him and all his brothers including twin returned.. one not so good emotionally.. From finding love in England to having to leave her there..to witnessing men hanging from trees from a failed jump.. massacred U.S. soldiers by Nazi troops.. to taking a crane through the middle of France just to see the Eiffel Tower and nearly being court-martialed.. to grieving over two fellow soldiers who committed suicide before they made it back home (they were found out to be gay) so as to spare their families humiliation survivor benefits would be distributed and avoid chemical experiments in prison.. so many stories.. I loved that man with all my being.. the gentlest creature on the face of the earth.. he never cussed anyone.. Only three times I ever witness him cry.. suicide of his eldest brother.. the death of my mother.. and talking about the two men who should've been able to come home, no matter who they loved.

After they were sued and charged several thousands of dollars to re-survey the markers they both ended up broke and had to move out of their own property. Just stick to your guns and wait till the right time and burn him up good.

@@dscottfr A brilliant way to deal with a bully? Tell them the rules, pretend you can't enforce the rules, then when they break them, enforce them. For example, he might've put up no trespassing signs and then left the property, so the bully might think you won't see trespassing, but they don't know you have cameras. To catch thieves, I've put out an obviously broken camera where it's seen and then three good cameras where they're hidden, and people look at the broken camera and send themselves to jail.

I did something like this when I worked loss prevention. An unknown employee stole a new girls iPhone8+ and hid it somewhere in the store to avoid a bag check and pick it up later. I knew it was in the store still so after I spent an hour looking for it I found it behind some boxes in a stock room. I replaced the expensive phone with a note that said "Turn around and SMILE, you're fired. ;) ". On the wall behind her I had put up a camera (fake). When the thief left in the middle of her shift the next day we knew who did it.
