Go grab Tito Ortiz and then go knock on their door. :)

Tito is dating Jeanna Jameson now, I think he might be too busy to deal with this :) (Tito is a quasi friend from Big Bear, he trains up there a lot and there is only so many bars in town....)

NEVER touch the offending vehicle. Doing so can have consequences...YOU could be accused of vandalizing or damaging the car...landing YOU in hot-water with the law.

Call the cops...get THEM to have the vehicle towed. Makes them the bad guy...after all, you only reported it...

In the sub-division where I live, parking is at a premium.

My neighbors have 3 or more families living in a 4 bedroom house...At any given time, there are 6 or more cars for that house, with a 2 car garage/driveway, and room in front of the house to park 2 econo-box cars bumper-to-bumper.

There is a small strip between our driveways, but NOT enough to park a single econo-box car without infringing on one driveway or the other.

Occasionally, one of them (or their freinds) will park and take up 1/4 to 1/2 of my driveway.

The first time, I went to the door and asked them to move it so I could get a car out...I got a bunch of racist accusation BS (saying that I'm a racist...I'm just fckin with them because I hate Mexicans, yada-yada) (partly true, but I'd get pissed about them parking in front of my driveway if they were snow-white and blonde) I then went in and called the cops.

Cop showed up, issued them a ticket for parking in front of the driveway, and then told them to move it or it would be towed.

They agreed to comply...but didn't. 1 hour later, the SAME cop came back by...and called a tow-truck.

Cost them $100 NOT to have it towed. (PLUS they had to pay the fine for the ticket.)
I've had to do this 3 times since...2 times, no one was home (or didn't answer the door) and the cop just calls the tow-truck.

You'd think they'd learn...</end quote></div>

They are illegal fucking Mexicans. You expect them to care?

Haha, christ Safeway you're so blunt with your thoughts. How is it that you don't get banned for saying stuff like that? :p

I want an update please! :D This sounds fun. I hope the car gets towed and they bitch about it.

The resolution should be to call a towing company.

whatever you do, DON'T do the following:

1) put bologna slices on their paint job (will eat away at the paint)

2) take a can of tuna and squeeze out the juice into their vent below the windshield (will be unable to get the tuna smell out of the car)

3) loosen the lug nuts on the wheels

4) hang a pair of truck nuts on the rear of the car (this only works if you do it on a sunday in the church parking lot while they're at church)

So here's my update:

The cop emailed me this morning and told me he'd swing by on his patrol and check it out to see if he can do anything about this situation and would give me an update asap.

As far as the neighbors go I came out this afternoon and found my garage blocked again and saw a group of five guys and three girls in front of the adjacent building on the same lot (My apartment is upstairs on top of the five garages and theres a building with four more garages across the way). So they notice me pop open my garage and then come towards them. This isnt the first time Ive asked them to move their car so at this point being cordial is out the window.

The first guy tries to be friendly and pretend that the car doesnt belong to anyone in the group. The other four give me condescending glares given that I'm outnumbered in this situation and the presence of their cheap women gives them a strong ego boost. I tell the first guy and the rest in a very loud and pissed off voice to stop blocking my garage and to move their f'ing car. I also tell them that I am going to have their car towed.

At this point one of the guys gives me a smirk and says "Mr Li is not going to drive down here to tow your car man. People have been parking like that for years before you moved in. So go ahead and try to tow it."

At this point theyve made a half circle around me and their portly women are giving me the stink eye for ruining their fun. One of the guys has his shirt unbuttoned and begins flexing his muscles at me. I am at the end of my rope at this point.

My 6 year old starts yelling for me from his window and I back off and go up to see whats wrong. Apparently seeing dad face off with five other men isn't the most comforting sight to see. I calm him down and when I come back out they're already gone.

I really hate my neighbors.

They already left by the time I got out. I think they realized I was going to do something brutal to the car.
