am i overreacting? or is it bad neighbors
 

this stuff pisses me the frick off....our property line is the end of the cement. every fricken time i cut the grass i sweep off the grass under the boat and off the cement. The neighbors (whenever they do cut their grass) never sweep my side and always leave their snickelfritz on my cement. everyone tells me to let it slide, but letting it slide results in it happening all the time. One thing i hate the most is double-working, should i just let it slide or tell them something, i really want to chew them out, and i could care less the outcome.

if they wanna be lazy , be lazy on their yard not my cement.im waiting til someone comes home and let the a-hole in me come out

just round up their grass there so they dont have to cut it:smokin:

man just cut a few passes on that side of the drive and spray poison down fence and problem solved, lot bigger things to worry with

they would love that...funny how they weedeat the cement but not their ac unit or their back yard fence....

what makes it worst is they are the welfare type, always chilling in the front of the house type(yea i stay in the hood) and their trash always blows to my yard...

WHATS WORST then cutting the grass in near 100 degree heat? picking up other's trash before you mow/ suffice to little pieces of paper chopped up everywhere in your yard..i think they know what the hell they doing, because i told them once before to use their lawn mower to blow the grass back into their yard, off my driveway.

Split the cost and pour concrete, then put up a fence

good luck at that, this is the house with bits of the blue tarp still on their roof from the last storm. my parents feel sorry for them because they think they're poor.sacrifice a bag of weed a week and get a damn broom/blower

oh yeah, the last storm that passed knocked down 3 sides of our backyard fence, WE alone repaired everything. The neighbor in question still has the BACK BACK fence still toppled over.with these people, you gotta be an ***

Man your problems sound exactly like mine were, bad thing is I confronted them on the trash problem and it did zero good, they were mad that I let my lab crapt in their yard. I told him to keep the trash out of my yard and I'd keep my lab out of theirs. He told me that they were his kids leaving the trash around in my yard and that he really could not keep them from doing that. I told him I could keep my lab from using his yard but chose not too. End result was he died in my kitchen while holding a gun he stole from me. Just saying may not be worth the arguement. Concentrated grass killer is cheap from Agri-Suppply. They have a website.

Sweep up their clippings, bag em an go dump em in their driveway

Wait a minute, what?!


Booyagasha - it ain't worth the fight - won't change anything. Maybe ask nicely once, then just let it blow over. Sounds like you needa move outta there anyways!

Long story^^! Let it ride. It's not worth the trouble. Shawn is really onto something here.

Send you dog over to crap in their yard. Might not make them do the right thing but you'll feel better everytime you have to redo it yourself. Just think of them walking around with your dog's crap on their feet. Maybe when you clean your yard of crap bring a load of it over there at night too and spread it around. Easy to hide if they don't cut their grass often. Kinda like leaving a mine field for them.

Every time you have to fart, just point your backside in their general direction:grinpimp:

My neighbor does the same thing .. She waits to cut hers until is really long so I leaves a ton of grass. I don't say anything but it pisses me off. I make sure the guys who cut my grass blow all that stuff away especially off neighbors property. I'm 1/2 tempted to just pay my guys to cut hers when they do mine cuz it looks like shat

maybe you guys are right, i was waiting on one or two members/reasons to get bucked on them, but illl let it slide again and i will try to mention it nicely next time i see them.
this is what i really needed to hear, lulz, definitely changed my whole mood thanks

Huh?

x2?

back when I ran lawn business I would cut over to the neighbors house or at least far enuff over that they did not mess my customers yard or drive up, made my customer happy and neighbor happy to have less to cut

im the one cutting so im definitely not cutting theirs, and with that side of the house, all i have to do is knock the grass off the cement with the weedeater. really dont even need to sweep any, it just falls back into the grass.
...might have to try this out , instead of weedating facing the grass like i normally do, i'll weed eat facing my cement, and give it a good foot/foot and a half

I think everyone is wonderin what happened......so what happend?!

Problem solved with Round-up and 2-4-D, pure dirt in 2 weeks.

What's a drive up?

if/when i resort to that, im not paying big money for round -up that stuff's expensive...DIESEL works just as good, down to the dirt,

I think Killzall or Honcho is what Tractor Supply sales and its pretty much same as Roundup and runs somewhere around $50 for 2.5gallon or go to local feed store and the will have off brand of Roundup and its concentrated

Let me try and dig up the old post, long story

sure even your small mind can fig that out

could not find threads but here are some articles in relation to what happend.

Shooting witnesses talk to police

Officer who fired shots reinstated after review
BY VANESSA C. DEGGINS
Investigators continue to gather information in the death of a Lake Charles man who was shot Feb. 9 by Lake Charles police as they checked on a recently burglarized house.
“They are still interviewing witnesses from the scene and are waiting on toxicology reports,” state police spokes–man Sgt. James Anderson said Monday. Because the shooting involves a local law enforcement agency, Troop D is in charge of the investigation.
The man, 29-year-old Warren Lawrence, reportedly walked into the house at 1738 Elms St. and came up behind the officers, Cpls. Dustin Fontenot and Lamar Cook, as they were searching the house for a possible burglar at about 8 p.m.
The officers turned and saw the man, and Fontenot — believing Lawrence to be armed — fired on him, officials said. Neighbors reported hearing at least five shots.
A third officer, rookie Shawna Broussard, was elsewhere on the property.
The investigation was immediately turned over to state police. Fontenot was placed on administrative leave with pay on the night of the shooting.
Sgt. Mark Kraus, spokes–man for the city police, said Fontenot was reinstated Monday afternoon after the department’s shooting review committee finished an internal investigation. The committee comprises supervisory members of the department, Kraus said.
According to police records provided to the American Press, Fontenot has been with the department for five years as a patrol officer. Cook has been with the department 16 years as a patrol officer. He had been training Broussard for six months.
Kraus said all of the officers have served in good standing and have been involved in no incidents before this one.
Court records show that Lawrence, who lived at 1736 Elms St., recently served a prison term for simple criminal property damage valued at more than $500. He had other arrests, but no other convictions.
His mother, Dora, told KPLC-TV that Lawrence was at home and went outside to smoke a cigarette at about 7 p.m. A short time later, she said, she heard gunfire.

Officers involved in fatal shooting

BY VANESSA C. DEGGINS
Lake Charles police officers responding to a burglary call late Tuesday shot to death a man inside the house they were called to.
The man was pronounced dead at the scene. His identity was not made available late Tuesday.
Louisiana State Police is investigating the shooting.
At around 8 p.m., officers were called to 1738 Elms St. for a burglary-in-progress, according to Lake Charles Sgt. Mark Kraus.
“When the two officers entered to clear the home, a man entered behind them,” Kraus said.
Kraus said the officers turned and saw the man, who they said was holding a firearm. The officers fired on him, believing he was a threat.
A nearby resident reporting hearing about five shots.
The owner of the residence, who declined to be identified, said a neighbor called him just before 8 p.m. saying that his front door was open.
“I told him to call the police, and I left work to come home,” the homeowner said.
The house is on a residential street one block behind Immaculate Conception Cathedral School and a few blocks from Christus St. Patrick Hospital.
The homeowner said someone attempted to kick in his back door last Wednesday night. He said the would-be burglar then attempted to kick in a side door, but police arrived as he got it open.
The transferring of the investigation to state police is a standard procedure. The Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office crime scene unit collected evidence at the scene at the request of state police.
Kraus did not release the names of the officers’ involved in the shooting late Tuesday.

thanks chief think there is a post on bayou shooters I'll try and pull up later, its what I put on here before it got pulled down

Go back to about Nov/Dec. of 2009 and you can find more info.

I did not see the above post.........guess the old post are gone?

I like your way of thinking, I was just staying on the legit side..lol

the post on here got pulled

Y'all didn't have any problems staying in the house after that. I remember hearing about that.

truthfully you are not supposed to have concrete within 5 ft of the property line.

if you plan to stay there just run fence out that side and block the view

a fence makes good neighbors!!

the slab the boat is on and the slab in front of the boat(both on side of the house) was there when we bought the house n 1991. the slab directly in front of that(now the third parking spot in my driveway) is the slab we had put in...not sure how the rules are for residential neighborhoods, but there''s alot of other houses set-up like mines..
great advice, would be even better if they chipped in like most neighbors do for fencing, we'd even pay the majority to have the "good side"--already had that convo--ended paying and putting up everything ourself for the back yard...all 3 sides

I would not use any type of poison or desiel but the next time I washed my boat after a fishing trip, I would get a garden hose fertilizer srayer (hose pipe to some people) and fill the container with salt. Then proceed to wash off your driveway using the salt water mixture. Salt water not only is an enemy to boat parts but does an effective job on grass as well. If any repercussions do arise from the dead grass, no evidence of poison or desiel would be present. It would be just an unfortunate occurance from fishing in salt water.

moved family out the thursday before when he tried kicking my back door in, moved my belongings with the help of some salty cajuns the weekend after his family had his week long wake. I had a sheriff's deputy there while everything was moved out in case something was too arise. Last I heard is his babies momma still has a pending civil suit against the LCPD for wrongful death or some crap like that.

dang, i wanted to read the article you mentioned..either way, definitely a learning experience.

It wasnt an article, it was my story of how it went down. Articles have a tendancy to change the situation up a little bit as they see sells, I mean fit.:grinpimp:

The stuff american press has that jude posted is incorrect in many ways, just saying. I think KPLC butchered it a lot worse, most "News" sites said "an alleged weapon", and "believed to have a weapon", truth be known my wife and I saw my deer rifle laying next to his body in my kitchen when I left the house.

Good LAWD.

ok pm me and I can get you a link to a page with some of the thread that I posted and what others said, most of the good stuff at least, would rather not post that on here

ain't that the truth, experienced it first hand myself....

feed his kids exlax brownies!!!!!
