next thing you know he gets thrown in jail for photographing the kids after they accuse him of being a perv or pedophile...id seriously have a talk with the parents or call the cops.
 
1) Videotape the little runts in the act.

2) After said videotape is made, buy a garden hose that holds ALOT of pressure.

3) Use said hose to relieve yourself of the problem

You douse them with the hose nice and wet, and if and when their parents come knocking, you got the evidence for your defense.

Get a gun and shot them. Air gun of course. Little pellets will teach them to think twice before throwing a rock.
 
when you confronted the kids you should have grabbed one of them and forced him to take you to his parents. if talking with the parent doesnt solve the problem then you need to think about physical violence, calling the cops, or suing.
 
I wouldn't confront them at this time, but I think photos or video record would be a good idea if a window breaks. Until then, ride it out for now and hopefully, the kids would find other distractions. Confronting them could lead to an escalation of mysterious damage to your property that is hard to prove (e.g. vandalized car). Or, you could hire them to wreak havoc on your other enemies. 😀
 
Wow!

Better hope that if you use a pellet gun, they don't come back with one of their parents' revolvers...

Seriously here, you are in a pickle. Anywhere else in the world, the little runts would just get a good ass-kicking. But you are where you are, and I assume almost anything can be used against you in this day and age.

I suppose you could hide somewhere and snipe them with a paintball gun or something, but that's risky as well. Do you have some REALLY good friends? Call them to your house and have them provide you with an alibi, then go out an kick the little bastards... then if they complain to the police, have your friends say you were there all the time. What you need to do is give them a really good idea not to mess with you.

Nah, the parents would sue you for emotional truama and probably win. Gotta love this country sometimes... I'd probably go with the ideas of photographic/video evidence and calling the police. Don't bother telling the parents, they're likely too drunk/high to care anyway, and even faced with irrefutable evidence would blame you, the schools, the alignment of the planet, etc. - anything to avoid taking responsibility for the little bastiges. Might not be a bad idea to follow them home either so you have an address for the police if anything breaks - just don't be too obvious about it or someone will yell pedo and you could end up in jail. This culture of treating kids like fragile, beautiful things instead of the grubbyhanded little demons they really are is disgusting and responsible for a big degradation in our society. The only socially acceptable forms of punishment are expressing disapproval and sending them to their room (where they have a tv/vcr/dvd/tivo/computer and, best of all, no 'nagging' parent). And people wonder why... *shakes fist at the sky*
 
Grab them by the throat, one in each hand, and lift them up so their feet are dangling in air, threaten to kill them and their families. The third kid just kick in the nads.

😕 I thought that was you.

That's what happens when you think, warren.

Like you did when you made a parody of NightRaven's thread a month after the fact, thinking it was me then also....

How's the royalites from Something about Mary paying off, have you found your baseball yet?

:beer:

good way to get the parents.
 
My sis and I had the same problem with our house. We would have these teens that wouldn't leave our house alone. One day they left some dog poop at my front door....so I waited for them with my 9 iron...needless to say, it was all over after that. Don't give in....if you must, talk with their parents and threaten to take them to court for high $$$. I mean a house is most people's highest valued item. If their parents don't know better to tell their kids to leave their neighbors alone, I would suggest you take action yourself. Like I said 9 iron seems to work well 😉

My sis and I work hard for our money, we don't want anything to happen to a $1/4 million home. Especially not from some little kids that don't know better. If their parents don't give them the belt, I sure will! 😀 There are some things that you just don't mess around with...and other people's house is one of them! Same thing with rolling other people's house with sh1t paper...if I ever catch one, I might just shoot a limb! :Q

Something tells me someone else will be owning that '$250,000' house soon, which would have been more interesting about 4 years ago, but now is sort of upper entry level.

However, since you mention you and your sis in the same post about a shared ownership home, is she your wife too? That would explain the 9 iron justice.

You of all people should know that real estate varies by area. Location, location, location. 750k in Cali is nothing compared to what 750k gets you in GA, TX, AL, etc. Parts of Florida away from the Coast too.

You say teens, and I wonder...14....for 19? I guess that doesnt really make a difference though, if they're pulling pranks on you like that. I could deffinitly understnad the frustration. I would just video tape whomever is doing this, but I wouldnt revert to phisically hurting some kids. Especially shooting someone (wtf!). But then again, I don't own a house yet. We're in the market and looking at houses (400-600k). Maybe my additude would change then.

My ignorance?!? look in the mirror bucky, next time you talk shooting someone for toilet papering your house (protecting your assets from kids with tissue I don't think will fly, even if you lived in Texas), and seriously you think anyone believes you beat some kids with a 9 iron or even threatened them....what I am thinking is you are projecting an incident where you were the victim.

The only one 'owned' in your neighborhood is you....it's pretty wierd though to have a home you own with your sister, I guess keep it in the family, eh Hoss?
