I live in a developing area and it's not just HOA's that try to take peoples property. One lady watched them build condos on 40 acres of her property waited till people started to move in. Then she called the police went to the developer showed him 30+ years of property tax records and claimed the property. The developer blamed the surveyor. It was in all of the papers for weeks. The same thing happened about 15 miles away. I went to install phone cable in a new equestrian center at a new development of multi million dollar houses. There was an old farmer watching me hook up to the main cable. He told me he sold 400 acres to the developer for the center. The farmer's family had been there for generations and when the state put in the nearby highway they assumed it was on the property line. It was not. A large piece of the property was cut off by the road. When the developer who assumed he owned all of the property on the side of the road across from the farmer found out the farmer owned property on both sides of the road. The state and the developer both had to pay the farmer. The developer had already built a few mansions on the property. It was a major development that covered 5 miles of shoreline on one of the great lakes. The farmer must have received a big settlement. After the farmer told me the story he told me his brother had died the week before and he had no family left. He said he wanted to die on the farm with his cows. He still had over 500 acres left. He looked very sad and lost. Just writing this story makes me sad.
Doing that can backfire though. Some local governments will use eminent domain to seize land ‘for the common good’ and then immediately sell it to the developer, or even give it to the developer for free in hopes of future tax revenues. The courts have ruled it legal in the USA. Since the government is in charge of valuing property, and any payouts for land seized via eminent domain are based on that valuation, many long-time landowners who didn’t sell to developers have gotten utterly screwed. Governments can easily draw out court cases against them until the cost of suing exceeds the value of the seized land or until the plaintiff dies of old age. The only defense against eminent domain is to have allodial title to your land. Only a couple states have ever granted allodial titles, and none currently do. The typical cost of acquiring allodial title, when it’s available at all, is to pay 100 years of property taxes as a lump sum - though it’s worth noting that allodial land titles are immune to property tax after that.
@@bergmanoswell879 I Know the farmer was well compensated. There was an even more interesting case when I lived down state Michigan. The Grosse Point Yacht club wanted to add a fire lane around the docks. They received permits for the work. The land owners across the street sued to block them from filling in the lake for the access road. The deeds to the property showed they owned through riparian rights miles into the lake to the Canadian border. The court upheld the deeds and blocked the project.
Story 1: The moment you get the stupid letters, talk to a lawyer and send a cease and desist. The moment you find the poisoned meat, contact the police and report it as a threat on YOUR lives, as well as your farm animals and household pets. Then start setting up a vigil, with cameras.
Most importantly, be careful with what you throw out. You never know what you may need, later on. Also, at the first _hint_ of trouble, get cameras. He would have had to go to the state police. As he said, the local PD had been paid off. Would have needed witnesses or video coverage, but the signature would have been under duress, and thus invalid.
General rule of thumb: Even if you know the charges are bogus, DO NOT throw out any letters that are demanding payment for fines. They're handy evidence of continuing harrassment if/when it goes to trial, and especially if it can be demonstrated that they KNEW said fines did not apply to you.
These things make the stories hard to believe. I understand throwing away the first stupid fine, but when your box is filled you need to take it seriously. You have video of a knife being held to your throat and you take it to the local police you suspect of being on the take???? They agree to process it and say the HOA tried to bribe them??? Come on, it just makes no sense.
@@mwilliams1330 nope. Not hard to believe at all. Some people really are that stupid and think throwing away or ignoring fines, means they'll go away. The problem with this is, if you have to contest a fine within a specific time period, and just throw them out, then regardless of the situation, you're deemed guilty by default. It's called "default judgement" for a reason, and people complain all the time for being found guilty, because they never contested the notices. Does this represent justice? Absolutely not, but it's the way the system works to its benefit. Any legitimate attempt to initiate a fine, will list the period of contestable actions prior to a court date or the final date in which payment is expected.
@@mwilliams1330 BTW you're assumption of how the system works, shows a preference for your bias dude. Real life doesn't go to the script that everyone thinks is reality.
Yeap… a fine for not agreeing to the HOA especially should have been held onto. It’s proof solid that you didn’t agree and they knew it. If a guy will hold a knife to your throat he will forge your signature.
Story 1: Always keep HOA correspondence. Put up security cameras. Send a Cease & Desist demand. File a No Contact order. Call police for each & every infraction. Document all. Since the farm is technically part of the National Food Chain...OP could take the evidence (including the text) to the FBI so they can investigate Terroristic Threats. State police too.
Its a story made up by some person living in his parents basement, As someone who was born in an farmer family, I can tell you people would be unalive ASAP . Farmer don't fuck around, people have been unalived over a few feet of land.
@@JeffDeWitt agreed, Native Americans actually would take the buttstocks of muskets and make war clubs based off of them, not to mention in WWI and WWII, if you ran dry, you had a 7-8 pound club in your hands
hoas need to learn that it’s never a good idea to mess with a farmer, because they have a lot of land, and heavy machinery as well as firearms, which can lead to ‘accidents’ and missing persons
I would never mess with a farmer as they produce your food that supermarkets rely on. HOA need to stop harass these farmers because if they do they will have not only the farmers but the supermarkets in the district. Dairy farmers are important to milk factories as they need the milk to produce your dairy products, chicken farmers supply eggs and chicken meat, beef farmers produce your beef meat. So HOA think before you target a farmer because its your own neck that you are cutting also your wallets.
As OP stated, local council and PD were not doing their job, at the time. OP should have called about the children, though. Parties until five a.m.? The nurse's employer, too. Funny she is applying to the same PD.
Yorkshire police won’t do much for loud music and depending on which part Yorkshire some places are worse and council wants a log diary of everything for minimum of 6 months but normally want at least 6 different witnesses I know this as I used to work for Bradford council and that was their policy
They should have gone back on their word and thrown the entire police under the bus as well. They even had a text message confirming that the police was corrupt.
Just because they took one bribe does not mean they are corrupt. Without more evidence to probe a pattern, they might just receive a reprimand and know where the complaint came from. Pick your battles, bide your time.
My favorite prank call from Bart Simpson to Moe Szyslak was when he asked for: last name Huggankiss, first name Amanda. Great stories, Ripe. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Story 2: The name indicated from the Simpsons episode was not actually Hugh Janus, but Hugh Jass...and he really did exist! Bart had no choice but to level with Mr. Jass saying he was trying a prank call and it backfired. Hugh Jass was actually quite pleasant to Bart the prank caller and said better luck next time.
I regularly place fake orders with telemarketers, all of whom are criminals violating the national Do Not Call list and well as other violations, but 99.9% of them are in India and using spoofed caller ID. That's true even for the ones who are actually selling products as well as the scammers. Anyway, the penis pill peddlers' call centers sell leads to each other, even after they screwed themselves shipping many of the orders to various addresses and never getting paid. So they call by bait phone about 30 to 50 times every day, asking for all the various names I have given them over the years. Over the years they have shipped Viagra to and still keep calling to sell more to Arnold Ziffel, Patty O'Furniture, Boris Badenov, Theodore Cleaver, Eddie Haskel, Jim Nasium, Ted Bundy, Jeffery Dahmer, Eric Cartman, Howard Johnson, Roe V. Wade, Cole Slaw, and quite a few others. :)
In that first story if it were in the United States, he should have gone to the state police so that perhaps even the local police would have been nailed.
@@freethebirds3578 Who knows, maybe some of it may be true. Maybe all of it is true, Maybe it's all false! Till you prove otherwise. You have to accept it as it's told! (I go for half being true and the other half being likely never happened or massive exaggerations! You know like someone saying they caught a fish a county wide....when it was only about half as large as the small boat that the fisherman was on! sort of affair! Or like that movie Big Fish, where much of the story told by the father DID happen, but was MAJORLY exaggerated for entertainment sake. But because the Dad did it too much to impress his son, he caused his son to become resentful to him for going to far and believed they were all COMPLETE LIES! The story was meant to for BOTH viewpoints of the Father AND the Son to get the full picture! As it was the son who got to see his father DID tell the Truth, but had also lied abit! Like the Giant Man being well LARGE like Shaq large, but not a giant per say!) But that's just my thoughts
@@freethebirds3578 .......wow that escalated quickly! When the hell did the "bible" get pulled into this? And I just mentioned I see this story as half and half! Some may be true, some seem exaggeration to HELL. Or did you cherry pick my reply and picked what would work for this reply of yours with no self-awareness what so ever? (Seriously did you full read the reply! I just said my half and half) And of course "have you proven it false yet!" It's either Completely True, Half False, or completely false! PICK ONE!
The local farmers should have banned together and said that their HOA out dated the new neighborhood's HOA. And the new neighborhood owes the farmer's HOA money for dues, and fines, and are not in compliance with the farmer's HOA. Everyone needs a barn, animals, and to grow useful crops, or leave. 🤣😂😆😁 If every farm area got lawyers to write up these papers as soon as someone tried developing residential homes in their area... They could nip it in the bud right away before this mess had a chance to happen. Even better than a farm co-op. 👨🌾🚜
I'm only 2 minutes into the first story and I know what i'd do after the first couple letters and stupidity. I'd start a pig farm as legally close to the neighborhood as possible.
That ACTUALLY HAPPENED in Lowndes County Georgia about 30+ years ago. It was on the news and the lady reporter could hardly read the copy she was laughing so hard throughout the story. Here is the story as I remember it from our South Georgia news station (probably WALB out of Albany, Georgia or WCTV out of Thomasville, Georgia). Area was historically zoned AGRICULTURE. Farming was long established. Land began to be available for people to begin to build “nice country homes”. Large land owner saw an opportunity to serve the expanding community and make a little money while doing so. He made proper plans for a gas station/convenience store on HIS property. The new residents had an absolute fit. Complaints went from “too many people will be coming through”, “loitering of transients”, to “smog and air pollution”. It went through zoning arguments and finally went to a law suit and court. Evidentially it became an extremely heated fight. The land owner lost and had to give up their plan. Mr. Land Owner was a genius and OVERNIGHT activated his plan. Area historically zoned for farming. Fine! THE VERY NEXT MORNING (this is why the reporter was laughing so hard) residents began to call into the county and sheriff’s office about horrible odors out there. Mr. Land Owner put in an absolutely legal PIG FARM!!! Best malicious compliance/revenge story EV*VER! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
First story: Too bad that riffle didn't work. She could shoot that excuse of excuse of excuse of trash and get away claiming she was protecting the property and her son.
@@RUclipsSupportSucks Oh shuuuut uuuup. You knew what they fucking meant. The world knew what they fucking meant. No need to mention a MINOR MISTAKE of double consonants. Now if the mistake was using then and than mixed up, I could understand.
Don't know how this works elsewhere in the world, but assuming Story 1 was in the U.S., and assuming the confrontation was caught by one of the cameras, he could have signed the documents when the knife was at his throat and been okay, since contracts made under duress are NOT legally binding at all.
Story 1: Never toss crazy letters like that in the trash, lawyer up and send them to your lawyer so then they have a solid foundation for when you eventually take the HOA to court because you know you will, because clearly they're insane and trying to do something very not legal. 🤷 Last story: 😮💨 I absolutely hate these people who were so inconsiderate that they were most definitely attributed to making the virus spread more because they couldn't keep to themselves for two weeks and quarantine, they couldn't not party and have people who interact with the virus come over constantly with elderly people and immuno-compromised people. They just go out and party and didn't give a 💩 about anyone other than themselves. Sure you don't have to work from home but other people do, be considerate of other people. You weren't the only people that exist in the world, other people might need a little bit of quiet time away from you and your family and everything that you're doing. 🤦
@@joshfly210 agree. If he kept the latter of them demand that he sign over his property, then it proof that he not part of the HOA and therefore NONE of the fine applies.
Last story: I think I would have went the route of telling the police, "Either y'all get out here and shut the noise down, or y'all are gonna get an entirely different kinda call out here. One that might involve ambulances or a coroner."
@@AzraelThanatos True enough. I live in Arkansas, where someone is likely to kick your door in and unload a double-barrelled shotty into your stereo for that nonsense. There's no reason for the OP to have to endure "years" (as they mentioned it took that long for the council to evict the neighbors) of that level of noise.
Not when you have a job interview to join the police. Threatening violence might ruin your chances of getting the job. Or might help them. Depends on the country. ;)
Not just the HOA but those crooked cops should also be reported for accepting bribes from the HOA, if they didn’t want to be convicted then they shouldn’t have accepted any forms of bribery. OP should file a lawsuit against them and have each police officer arrested and charged as well.
never ignore an HOA -- even when you aren't a party to the association. always reply. cease and desist, frivolous lawsuits, harassment -- whatever applies. establish the paper trail and document every interaction. especially determine whether your locality has one or two party consent rules regarding recording conversations.
The OP in the first story should have kept the notice about a fine for not joining the HOA, since it would be evidence disproving any claims in court by the HOA that OP actually was under their authority.
1st Story - You can’t take someone to court for a criminal act. The farmer would have had to have police to arrest and start proceedings. But the PD was on the take. Which police laid the charges?
In a lot of US states the fine to cause damage to farms and livestock is tripled. Ripe- in Britain they usually slur shire to sher when connected to a location name
I'm surprised the farmer didn't have a working firearm. I guess it might have been outside the US, but here you want a rifle to protect your livestock. Coyotes and foxes can be dangerous to small livestock, like young sheep, young goats, or chickens.
I'd be marching the HOA idiot off my property, gun in his back. Legal here in Florida. Castle Law. OP was good in putting in cameras, and I'd be putting up an electric fence too.
Story 1: 1 - Put up cameras and see who does it. 2 - Track them down 3 - Figure out their living patterns 4 - Cave in their face without letting them know of your identity 5 - Live in peace.
Just send a notice back to the HOA for every notice they send you: "this is a notice that you will $1,000 fine for each notice. That will be $100,000, cash or money order."
Story 1: Hmm, I'm surprised OP didn't involve the state ASAP when he found out even the cops were under the HOA's influence. They have friends in high places, anyway.
My dad was a generational farmer, he was really really smart and was pretty poker faced when it came to patience getting justice with anything-he never had anyone take advantage of him. Farmers don’t usually talk much and have usually great intuition and horse sense.
Like he was pretty book smart too and could quote poetry and literature sometimes but not often just when it was appropriate. He was very funny dry wit too.. I asked him who won first prize at a sheep show he was asked to judge-I expected him to say some farm or breeder but he quietly says “dunno, some sheep…” 😂
last story - that’s when all the neighbors get together and pay the asshole neighbor a visit and give him an “Attitude Adjustment” with Baseball Bats upside his head
First story if the local police refuse to react and the HOA sent that text saying the cops were thier's thats when you contact the state or federal officials at least in the US
Anyone with noisy neighbors like the last story you need to look into white noise emitters. I knew a guy about 30 years ago who had noisy neighbors and he rewired an old radio to emit white noise that blocked out his neighbors stereo. I wish I had asked him more about how he did that, but if you know someone who is good with electronics they may be able to help .
Better yet, build a more destructive device. The perps are literally on the other side of the wall from you, so feeding destructive levels of signals to the TV is not at all difficult.
FCC are relentless about tracking down pirate transmitting on the airwaves, they don't ask why ... Just hit you with ENORMOUS fines and threats of jail time.
IKR? I can't say much for the police that would 'fail' him on his interview because of what the neighbors were doing. He had no control over that, and even explained to the interviewer what was going on! The person giving the interview should be transferred to some other job.
About Hugh Janus... In 1983 someone pranked the phone company, and the name of the listing in the Abany, NY phone book, (yes those were a thing back then), was Haywood Jablowmie. I'd heard about it on a local radio morning show and looked it up when I got home from work that day... and it was there. I saved the page, but lost it along the way in the passing years. :edit to add Albany:.
Five Dudes: Depending on what the base does, uses or stores, someone trying to get unauthorized access can trigger a “deadly force” response. Even military personnel can trigger that response trying to go where they are not authorized. This is particularly true at a navy base that may have strategic assets in port at any given time. As a minor example, at one base I was assigned to I processed orders for detonation cord, grenades, shaped charges, rifle and pistol ammunition, warheads up to 100 pounds of high explosive.
One thing i have noticed from all these farmers vs hoa stories, if you are a farmer and not part of an hoa and they start sending you letters and fines. DO NOT DELAY IMMEDIATELY LAWYER UP. GET A CEASE AND DECIST ORDER IN PLACE BEFORE THEY HAVE A CHANCE TO BLINK. Also put up no trespassing signs everywhere. If they send someone to threaten you.. well, drag them into your house and beat them until half dead. Then call the police and have them arrested for intruding. Also start recording your phone calls. like seriously every single one of them, that way when you find out that the police are taking bribes you have evidence. I cant fully understand howcome these hoas manage to find the one farmer who does not have half a dozen guns. If you tried that where i live.. well lets just say that guns are considered standard equipment for a farm, if for no other reason than pest management. pretty sure that these hoa bullies would end up getting shot in short order.
Super-Noisy Family Story: If the Council refuses to do anything, call Animal Control for the barking dog and CPS for the kids...also call the Police for violating Lock-Down Laws and/or excessive noise late at night and call a Lawyer to Sue for Harassment and interfering with Enjoyment of your Property with a Restraining Order requiring them to keep the noise to a civilized level... And because Council refuses to do their damn jobs, call the Media to report it...maybe a Front-Page Expose would shame them into doing their bloody jobs!
The HOA incidents could have been handled did fairly well. As for council and noisy neighbors, some of this story is preposterous. I could understand if he wasn't having a job interview, but HR from cops would send an officer to control the noise. But I enjoyed listening. Thanks.
The bad neighbor story gets me so angry I've been going through the exact same thing for 7 years in Scotland a flat shared wall multiple junkies for neighbors with kids , screaming , music , fights the lot hoping by the end of the story there is inside on how to deal with it as police and council are no help
This story is not true. HoA's are in specifically zoned areas and farm lands are zoned agriculture. They do not mix. You can tell this story is foreign by use of language. Using HOA as clickbait.
That HOA hits close to me. When i was 5 years old, someone tossed a chicken laced with rat poison over my wall, and my german shepard, who was a glutton, ate it. He died later that day
Tape them tape, a total 24 hour tape of all the racket that they’re making and then put your speakers outside station towards their house and turn the thing on and leave it at full volume for at least 24 hours
I'm a firm believer in "stand your ground" when it comes to bullies and HOAs. Your mom is an OG for grabbing the rifle and saving you. However me personally I would've waited til all hours of the night with a shotgun waiting for the trespassers. 2 shots. One to let them know I mean business, and I don't miss a second time. And the second would send you home, dumped off in the back of my truck. You don't mess with farmers.
I can just imagine the it was at that moment I realized I F'd up looks on HOA dude's face when the rifle barrel was pressed against the back of his head and on gift card scam dude when swarmed by very serious most likely Marines.
the correct answer to the demand of the HOA president for your land is to channel an ancient british king "I will give you six foot of my good ground, or seen as you are all accounts a tall man, i will give you seven, no more"
I used to work security for a military base on the airfield. the amount of people who try to sneak on post is crazy. We even had a lady with a van full of kids demand to be let on the airfield to see the helicopters. After we told her no she started yelling that we were kidnapping people and keeping them in the hangars and drove off then a few minutes later charged her car through the gate and hit the pop up barriers. The entire time we had her on the ground she was yelling about paying our wages and that we work for her and she will own us after she gets done with us. That was 10 years ago and she is still in jail.
Story one Farmers are not the dumb poor uneducated people HOA's think they are and most aren't aware that some farms are very successful to where it would take a number of bad years to sell some or all of the land. 2nd story brilliant. 3rd story being the UK was a little stricter with lockdowns I would call the authorities hang up call back 5 to 10 mins later I would call police report call the council hang up call the police again rinse and repeat. getting up to 70 calls each per day from you. I would also talk with other neighbors in the area that can hear these inconsiderate neighbors five or six house holds calling in to police or council 70 times for each one giving the same address. If only you had multiple phone lines and an auto-dialer with AI to work through any automated system on their end.
Great video as usual, Ripe.😊 I fell asleep to your video playlist and had strange dreams about entitled Karens and psychic HOAs and you were narrating in my dream. Weird right? Until I woke up and the video were still on.😂
Story 2: It's been a long time since I lived/worked near any US military base, so maybe things have changed. Since when is a civilian allowed to shop at a PX?
If a member of the military (or immediate family) brings a friend onto base, that person can buy from the PX. Some items are restricted though, like rank insignias.
ive purchased several properties in my 65 years of life, im a 65 year old married to "steffy" . i never ever even think about considering to purchase a property if it is part of a HOA. if a HOA formed next door to my property i would first send them a legally binding notice that said that if anyone from the HOA set foot on my property they would be trespassing, and this was their legal notice of trespass. that any violator would be PLACED IMMEDIATELY UNDER "CITIZENS ARREST"!!! THE VERY FIRST THING I DO TO MY PROPERTY IS FENCE IT AND PLACE THE NO TRESPASSING SIGNS AT 1/2 THE LEGAL DISTANCE. THE SECOND THING I DO IS DIG A BIG DEEP HOLE THAT WILL BURY A DUMP TRUCK! YOU DONT MESS WITH A HILLBILLY THAT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH PSYCHOPATHY (THAT MEANS IM A REAL LIVE PSYCHOPATH) BACK IN THE 1970'S!!
What I fine most funny is that there is something in our psyches that wants to listen to these improbable situations so we can get upset and complain and say what we would do even as we know the stories are all fiction. :-)
Just a helpful insight to the story about the loud, Noisy neighbors being huge Januses!!?? LOL when the noisy neighbor story Ends 1 section Just before point 25:02, where you end that section of the story....Right at point 25:03, You end up re telling the 2 small sections that you had just finished telling for the story. Just thought you should be aware, I think this is the first time I've seen this happen on YOUR channel. there ARE other story retellers who do this repeating sentences and paragraphs. But, these are GREAT!! video stories.
The last story just brought up something from years back (though thankfully not as bad). There was a local record/CD/audio equipment store that had for a couple of years promoted a "Loudest Car in Town" contest. As you might imagine this got a lot of young men without a clue to go all in and stuff their glammed up rice burners with as much loud stuff as they could afford or steal. The last year I had the unfortunate luck to live about a block away from a house of young guys who were seriously dedicated to winning this contest. Don't get me wrong, I remember being young and dumb, but never anything on the nuclear level of acoustic violence these boys were perpetrating. After a week or so of their impressively loud music ramping up I finally lost it on one late Saturday afternoon. The bass notes from their setup were so loud I could feel it in my chest trying to rearrange my internal organs, and my young children were feeling the same pain. So I went all dad on them - drove around the corner in my cool family mini van and accosted a bunch of late teenaged boys throwing back the beers and, from the smoke haze, high as kites. "Who the f**k lives here?" I demanded. Surpringly, none of them admitted to ever having been at the house before. I yelled at them a bit in a way that taught them some interesting and creative vocabulary and said that if I heard one more sound I would be calling the cops. Then the more convincing argument. "Since none of you live here, just want to let you know that even the guy in that house is p***ed of with you. He's a full patch Hell's Angel (true) and he's not going to be calling the cops." Music was shut down and several cars that had been parked all over the lawn suddenly had somewhere else to be. Never happened again and that was, due to so many complaints, the last year that stupid contest was held. And I did lie about the HA guy being pissed off, but it was fun to see the punks suddenly realize that they had to visit a sick grandmother or something. Sometimes the best way to get the coackroaches to scurry is to shine a bright light on them or at least put the fear of stomping into them.
I had a friend who was a military man's son back in primary school. Before 9/11 i could go and hand out with him on military premises, but afterwards, I had to be picked up by one of his parents to be allowed to come.
Story 2: just to be pedantic. Being the bottom of the totem pole means you're actually the strongest out of everyone because you are supporting everyone else on your shoulders 😎👍 so what people really mean when they say that is that they should be "the top of the totem pole"

I live in a developing area and it's not just HOA's that try to take peoples property. One lady watched them build condos on 40 acres of her property waited till people started to move in. Then she called the police went to the developer showed him 30+ years of property tax records and claimed the property. The developer blamed the surveyor. It was in all of the papers for weeks. The same thing happened about 15 miles away. I went to install phone cable in a new equestrian center at a new development of multi million dollar houses. There was an old farmer watching me hook up to the main cable. He told me he sold 400 acres to the developer for the center. The farmer's family had been there for generations and when the state put in the nearby highway they assumed it was on the property line. It was not. A large piece of the property was cut off by the road. When the developer who assumed he owned all of the property on the side of the road across from the farmer found out the farmer owned property on both sides of the road. The state and the developer both had to pay the farmer. The developer had already built a few mansions on the property. It was a major development that covered 5 miles of shoreline on one of the great lakes. The farmer must have received a big settlement. After the farmer told me the story he told me his brother had died the week before and he had no family left. He said he wanted to die on the farm with his cows. He still had over 500 acres left. He looked very sad and lost. Just writing this story makes me sad.
Doing that can backfire though. Some local governments will use eminent domain to seize land ‘for the common good’ and then immediately sell it to the developer, or even give it to the developer for free in hopes of future tax revenues. The courts have ruled it legal in the USA.
Since the government is in charge of valuing property, and any payouts for land seized via eminent domain are based on that valuation, many long-time landowners who didn’t sell to developers have gotten utterly screwed. Governments can easily draw out court cases against them until the cost of suing exceeds the value of the seized land or until the plaintiff dies of old age.
The only defense against eminent domain is to have allodial title to your land. Only a couple states have ever granted allodial titles, and none currently do. The typical cost of acquiring allodial title, when it’s available at all, is to pay 100 years of property taxes as a lump sum - though it’s worth noting that allodial land titles are immune to property tax after that.
@@bergmanoswell879 I Know the farmer was well compensated. There was an even more interesting case when I lived down state Michigan. The Grosse Point Yacht club wanted to add a fire lane around the docks. They received permits for the work. The land owners across the street sued to block them from filling in the lake for the access road. The deeds to the property showed they owned through riparian rights miles into the lake to the Canadian border. The court upheld the deeds and blocked the project.

@@JV-pu8kx Also, contact the FBI. The FBI takes police corruption quite seriously.

Absolutely a crime to attempt to poison someone's farm animals & pets.
Shoot, shovel, shut up.
General rule of thumb:
Even if you know the charges are bogus, DO NOT throw out any letters that are demanding payment for fines. They're handy evidence of continuing harrassment if/when it goes to trial, and especially if it can be demonstrated that they KNEW said fines did not apply to you.
These things make the stories hard to believe. I understand throwing away the first stupid fine, but when your box is filled you need to take it seriously. You have video of a knife being held to your throat and you take it to the local police you suspect of being on the take???? They agree to process it and say the HOA tried to bribe them??? Come on, it just makes no sense.
@@mwilliams1330 nope. Not hard to believe at all. Some people really are that stupid and think throwing away or ignoring fines, means they'll go away.
The problem with this is, if you have to contest a fine within a specific time period, and just throw them out, then regardless of the situation, you're deemed guilty by default.
It's called "default judgement" for a reason, and people complain all the time for being found guilty, because they never contested the notices.
Does this represent justice?
Absolutely not, but it's the way the system works to its benefit.
Any legitimate attempt to initiate a fine, will list the period of contestable actions prior to a court date or the final date in which payment is expected.
@@mwilliams1330 BTW you're assumption of how the system works, shows a preference for your bias dude.
Real life doesn't go to the script that everyone thinks is reality.
Yeap… a fine for not agreeing to the HOA especially should have been held onto. It’s proof solid that you didn’t agree and they knew it. If a guy will hold a knife to your throat he will forge your signature.
@@mwilliams1330 Probably not in USA. South Africa also has HOA as do more countries in Asia.
Story 1: Always keep HOA correspondence. Put up security cameras. Send a Cease & Desist demand. File a No Contact order. Call police for each & every infraction. Document all.
Since the farm is technically part of the National Food Chain...OP could take the evidence (including the text) to the FBI so they can investigate Terroristic Threats. State police too.
I can't believe he threw the letters away. That prime evidence! Also he got a text about the bribe? Any lawyer would've had a field day with this.
It's clearly fake
@@Remsstervery fake

Its a story made up by some person living in his parents basement, As someone who was born in an farmer family, I can tell you people would be unalive ASAP . Farmer don't fuck around, people have been unalived over a few feet of land.
Man if I was the farmer's mom, the HOA guy would've been headless
The gun wasn’t in working condition, but he didn’t know that lol that’s why it worked out the way it did.
@@joshfly210 Should have used the HOA's knife on him and called it self-defence though.
A good loaded 12 gauge shotgun makes a good statement. If necessary, HOA Secretary gets a closed casket funeral. Self defense, AH! 🤨
@@joshfly210 it's still a long blunt instrument, could have hit him over the head with it.
@@JeffDeWitt agreed, Native Americans actually would take the buttstocks of muskets and make war clubs based off of them, not to mention in WWI and WWII, if you ran dry, you had a 7-8 pound club in your hands
hoas need to learn that it’s never a good idea to mess with a farmer, because they have a lot of land, and heavy machinery as well as firearms, which can lead to ‘accidents’ and missing persons
Somepeople deserve to be promoted to missing person.
And, any good experiencef farmer has knowledge of how to use the law. Farms are not cheap to run. Farmer will have a good lawyer.
You know what's crazy if somebody dies for whatever reason on your property you have every legal right to bury them on your property and tell no one
Ever watch "Yellowstone"?
I would never mess with a farmer as they produce your food that supermarkets rely on. HOA need to stop harass these farmers because if they do they will have not only the farmers but the supermarkets in the district. Dairy farmers are important to milk factories as they need the milk to produce your dairy products, chicken farmers supply eggs and chicken meat, beef farmers produce your beef meat. So HOA think before you target a farmer because its your own neck that you are cutting also your wallets.
Always remember, No Farmers, No Food. 100% respect to all of our Farmers.👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Last story, OP should have called the police over the violations just before the interview to have them all arrested & held during the interview.
As OP stated, local council and PD were not doing their job, at the time. OP should have called about the children, though. Parties until five a.m.? The nurse's employer, too. Funny she is applying to the same PD.
Maybe take your laptop and go sit in the office of the council and tell them that you’ll be working there until they do something about the neighbors?
Yorkshire police won’t do much for loud music and depending on which part Yorkshire some places are worse and council wants a log diary of everything for minimum of 6 months but normally want at least 6 different witnesses I know this as I used to work for Bradford council and that was their policy
They should have gone back on their word and thrown the entire police under the bus as well. They even had a text message confirming that the police was corrupt.
“Were” but I agree, while I support good cops I detest corrupt cops as much as pedophiles and serial rapists.
Just because they took one bribe does not mean they are corrupt. Without more evidence to probe a pattern, they might just receive a reprimand and know where the complaint came from. Pick your battles, bide your time.
@@JV-pu8kx One bribe is still corruption just like one murder is still a murder.
Agreed. The police situation actually makes me more angry than the HOA people, at least the HOA people weren't violating an sworn oath to the people.
@@JV-pu8kx Oh don't worry, just because there's a few moldy slices of bread doesn't mean the entire bag isn't contaminated.
First thing to do when you start getting fines from an HOA you don't belong to is get a shark lawyer to take after them.
My favorite prank call from Bart Simpson to Moe Szyslak was when he asked for: last name Huggankiss, first name Amanda. Great stories, Ripe.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
one of these days a HOA will make a "Not a member of hoa" fee which sounds like what the hoa did have
How would they be even able to enforce that fee.
Story 2: The name indicated from the Simpsons episode was not actually Hugh Janus, but Hugh Jass...and he really did exist! Bart had no choice but to level with Mr. Jass saying he was trying a prank call and it backfired. Hugh Jass was actually quite pleasant to Bart the prank caller and said better luck next time.
There was a Hugh Janus episode as well. But I also know the episode you are talking about.
Still on upping that scammer was hilarious. I am shocked it took a moment longer for me to get the joke and when I did I was snorting with laughter.
I regularly place fake orders with telemarketers, all of whom are criminals violating the national Do Not Call list and well as other violations, but 99.9% of them are in India and using spoofed caller ID. That's true even for the ones who are actually selling products as well as the scammers. Anyway, the penis pill peddlers' call centers sell leads to each other, even after they screwed themselves shipping many of the orders to various addresses and never getting paid. So they call by bait phone about 30 to 50 times every day, asking for all the various names I have given them over the years. Over the years they have shipped Viagra to and still keep calling to sell more to Arnold Ziffel, Patty O'Furniture, Boris Badenov, Theodore Cleaver, Eddie Haskel, Jim Nasium, Ted Bundy, Jeffery Dahmer, Eric Cartman, Howard Johnson, Roe V. Wade, Cole Slaw, and quite a few others. :)
Getting the scammers in trouble with the military? Chef's Kiss! 😂
In that first story if it were in the United States, he should have gone to the state police so that perhaps even the local police would have been nailed.
Or it could be total fiction, which I am inclined to believe.
@@freethebirds3578 Who knows, maybe some of it may be true. Maybe all of it is true, Maybe it's all false! Till you prove otherwise. You have to accept it as it's told! (I go for half being true and the other half being likely never happened or massive exaggerations! You know like someone saying they caught a fish a county wide....when it was only about half as large as the small boat that the fisherman was on! sort of affair! Or like that movie Big Fish, where much of the story told by the father DID happen, but was MAJORLY exaggerated for entertainment sake. But because the Dad did it too much to impress his son, he caused his son to become resentful to him for going to far and believed they were all COMPLETE LIES! The story was meant to for BOTH viewpoints of the Father AND the Son to get the full picture! As it was the son who got to see his father DID tell the Truth, but had also lied abit! Like the Giant Man being well LARGE like Shaq large, but not a giant per say!)
But that's just my thoughts

And of course "have you proven it false yet!" It's either Completely True, Half False, or completely false! PICK ONE!
County Sheriff would be the next step.
The local farmers should have banned together and said that their HOA out dated the new neighborhood's HOA. And the new neighborhood owes the farmer's HOA money for dues, and fines, and are not in compliance with the farmer's HOA. Everyone needs a barn, animals, and to grow useful crops, or leave. 🤣😂😆😁
If every farm area got lawyers to write up these papers as soon as someone tried developing residential homes in their area... They could nip it in the bud right away before this mess had a chance to happen. Even better than a farm co-op. 👨🌾🚜
I'm only 2 minutes into the first story and I know what i'd do after the first couple letters and stupidity. I'd start a pig farm as legally close to the neighborhood as possible.
That ACTUALLY HAPPENED in Lowndes County Georgia about 30+ years ago. It was on the news and the lady reporter could hardly read the copy she was laughing so hard throughout the story. Here is the story as I remember it from our South Georgia news station (probably WALB out of Albany, Georgia or WCTV out of Thomasville, Georgia). Area was historically zoned AGRICULTURE. Farming was long established. Land began to be available for people to begin to build “nice country homes”. Large land owner saw an opportunity to serve the expanding community and make a little money while doing so. He made proper plans for a gas station/convenience store on HIS property. The new residents had an absolute fit. Complaints went from “too many people will be coming through”, “loitering of transients”, to “smog and air pollution”. It went through zoning arguments and finally went to a law suit and court. Evidentially it became an extremely heated fight. The land owner lost and had to give up their plan. Mr. Land Owner was a genius and OVERNIGHT activated his plan. Area historically zoned for farming. Fine! THE VERY NEXT MORNING (this is why the reporter was laughing so hard) residents began to call into the county and sheriff’s office about horrible odors out there. Mr. Land Owner put in an absolutely legal PIG FARM!!! Best malicious compliance/revenge story EV*VER! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Don't know how this works elsewhere in the world, but assuming Story 1 was in the U.S., and assuming the confrontation was caught by one of the cameras, he could have signed the documents when the knife was at his throat and been okay, since contracts made under duress are NOT legally binding at all.
Story 1: Never toss crazy letters like that in the trash, lawyer up and send them to your lawyer so then they have a solid foundation for when you eventually take the HOA to court because you know you will, because clearly they're insane and trying to do something very not legal. 🤷
Last story: 😮💨 I absolutely hate these people who were so inconsiderate that they were most definitely attributed to making the virus spread more because they couldn't keep to themselves for two weeks and quarantine, they couldn't not party and have people who interact with the virus come over constantly with elderly people and immuno-compromised people. They just go out and party and didn't give a 💩 about anyone other than themselves. Sure you don't have to work from home but other people do, be considerate of other people. You weren't the only people that exist in the world, other people might need a little bit of quiet time away from you and your family and everything that you're doing. 🤦

Epic video the back (story #1) lash of messing with a farmer
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Story 1: From the second they threatened you with a knife, you are within your rights to extinguish their flame.
If someone tried poisoning my dog, they’d be missing, and my dog would be enjoying some new treats.
If I were the op, that guy that put the knife to op's throat would have never left the farm alive!
There are 2K acres or a manure pile for a body to disappear into. When the secretary doesn’t return they might get a clue.
Last story: I think I would have went the route of telling the police, "Either y'all get out here and shut the noise down, or y'all are gonna get an entirely different kinda call out here. One that might involve ambulances or a coroner."
It's the UK where it happened, their cops are likely to just jam you in a cell for it...
@@AzraelThanatos True enough. I live in Arkansas, where someone is likely to kick your door in and unload a double-barrelled shotty into your stereo for that nonsense. There's no reason for the OP to have to endure "years" (as they mentioned it took that long for the council to evict the neighbors) of that level of noise.
Hah, this is what you get when you move into an apartment or townhouse.
Not when you have a job interview to join the police. Threatening violence might ruin your chances of getting the job.
Or might help them. Depends on the country. ;)
@@lizjenkin7170 Well, like I said, I live in Arkansas, so it's 50-50.
when you get a fine from an HOA that you do not belong to the first course of action is to get a lawyer. Why don't people think this first??
Not just the HOA but those crooked cops should also be reported for accepting bribes from the HOA, if they didn’t want to be convicted then they shouldn’t have accepted any forms of bribery. OP should file a lawsuit against them and have each police officer arrested and charged as well.
never ignore an HOA -- even when you aren't a party to the association. always reply. cease and desist, frivolous lawsuits, harassment -- whatever applies.
establish the paper trail and document every interaction.
especially determine whether your locality has one or two party consent rules regarding recording conversations.
The OP in the first story should have kept the notice about a fine for not joining the HOA, since it would be evidence disproving any claims in court by the HOA that OP actually was under their authority.

Glad I own my own land, owe no one anything, and in an Area where there is no HoA, there was one like 20years ago, but dissolved.
Here in the Netherlands, HOAs basically don't even exist, except for apartment buildings since those don't work without one.
Neither did this guy-They just show up and harass people out of greed, jealousy, and the need to control everyone!
Wont save you. The people in this story owned their land too.
And thats why one should not throw away these obvious attempts at extortion.
In a lot of US states the fine to cause damage to farms and livestock is tripled.
Ripe- in Britain they usually slur shire to sher when connected to a location name
Will keep that in mind 😁
Story 1: Every day I find out about a more insane HOA. This one really takes the cake so far. WHY ARE THEY EVEN A THING?!?!
Third story: Neighbors like that of inconsiderate and disregarsing requieres a nuclear revenge.
First story. Gee, one of the animals died and we had to bury it on the back 40. HOA board members keep disappearing? What a shame! 😏
LOL.
This is just ridiculous.
Who could even believe this actually happened? 🤣🤣🤣
I'm surprised the farmer didn't have a working firearm. I guess it might have been outside the US, but here you want a rifle to protect your livestock. Coyotes and foxes can be dangerous to small livestock, like young sheep, young goats, or chickens.
I'd be marching the HOA idiot off my property, gun in his back. Legal here in Florida. Castle Law.

@@mbyerly9680 Makes sense
Story 1: 1 - Put up cameras and see who does it.
2 - Track them down
3 - Figure out their living patterns
4 - Cave in their face without letting them know of your identity
5 - Live in peace.
Story 2. As a veteran and a former retail worker I love this one. Let the scammers deal with MPs and see that the scam is costing more than it makes
Just send a notice back to the HOA for every notice they send you: "this is a notice that you will $1,000 fine for each notice. That will be $100,000, cash or money order."
Story 1: Hmm, I'm surprised OP didn't involve the state ASAP when he found out even the cops were under the HOA's influence. They have friends in high places, anyway.
Hello Ripe. Thanks for the video. All i could think was maybe tree law would come into play too. Lol. Ser you too much tomorrow
Tree law needs to be enjoyed in small doses 😆😆
My dad was a generational farmer, he was really really smart and was pretty poker faced when it came to patience getting justice with anything-he never had anyone take advantage of him. Farmers don’t usually talk much and have usually great intuition and horse sense.
Like he was pretty book smart too and could quote poetry and literature sometimes but not often just when it was appropriate. He was very funny dry wit too.. I asked him who won first prize at a sheep show he was asked to judge-I expected him to say some farm or breeder but he quietly says “dunno, some sheep…” 😂

Anyone with noisy neighbors like the last story you need to look into white noise emitters. I knew a guy about 30 years ago who had noisy neighbors and he rewired an old radio to emit white noise that blocked out his neighbors stereo. I wish I had asked him more about how he did that, but if you know someone who is good with electronics they may be able to help .

I hope in the last story that OP got his job.
IKR? I can't say much for the police that would 'fail' him on his interview because of what the neighbors were doing. He had no control over that, and even explained to the interviewer what was going on! The person giving the interview should be transferred to some other job.

About Hugh Janus... In 1983 someone pranked the phone company, and the name of the listing in the Abany, NY phone book, (yes those were a thing back then), was Haywood Jablowmie. I'd heard about it on a local radio morning show and looked it up when I got home from work that day... and it was there.
I saved the page, but lost it along the way in the passing years.

Five Dudes: Depending on what the base does, uses or stores, someone trying to get unauthorized access can trigger a “deadly force” response. Even military personnel can trigger that response trying to go where they are not authorized. This is particularly true at a navy base that may have strategic assets in port at any given time.
As a minor example, at one base I was assigned to I processed orders for detonation cord, grenades, shaped charges, rifle and pistol ammunition, warheads up to 100 pounds of high explosive.
One thing i have noticed from all these farmers vs hoa stories, if you are a farmer and not part of an hoa and they start sending you letters and fines. DO NOT DELAY IMMEDIATELY LAWYER UP. GET A CEASE AND DECIST ORDER IN PLACE BEFORE THEY HAVE A CHANCE TO BLINK. Also put up no trespassing signs everywhere. If they send someone to threaten you.. well, drag them into your house and beat them until half dead. Then call the police and have them arrested for intruding. Also start recording your phone calls. like seriously every single one of them, that way when you find out that the police are taking bribes you have evidence.
I cant fully understand howcome these hoas manage to find the one farmer who does not have half a dozen guns. If you tried that where i live.. well lets just say that guns are considered standard equipment for a farm, if for no other reason than pest management. pretty sure that these hoa bullies would end up getting shot in short order.
Super-Noisy Family Story: If the Council refuses to do anything, call Animal Control for the barking dog and CPS for the kids...also call the Police for violating Lock-Down Laws and/or excessive noise late at night and call a Lawyer to Sue for Harassment and interfering with Enjoyment of your Property with a Restraining Order requiring them to keep the noise to a civilized level...
And because Council refuses to do their damn jobs, call the Media to report it...maybe a Front-Page Expose would shame them into doing their bloody jobs!
Unfortunately, noise canceling headphones may be a work necessity.
The HOA incidents could have been handled did fairly well. As for council and noisy neighbors, some of this story is preposterous. I could understand if he wasn't having a job interview, but HR from cops would send an officer to control the noise. But I enjoyed listening. Thanks.
The bad neighbor story gets me so angry I've been going through the exact same thing for 7 years in Scotland a flat shared wall multiple junkies for neighbors with kids , screaming , music , fights the lot hoping by the end of the story there is inside on how to deal with it as police and council are no help
This story is not true. HoA's are in specifically zoned areas and farm lands are zoned agriculture. They do not mix. You can tell this story is foreign by use of language. Using HOA as clickbait.
Navy MA here. Yeah we get bored a lot so when the smallest things happen we swarm to it!
Okay so that last story is something else. I'll just straight up cut their power supply off then.
Police won't do anything?
Have fun having no power!
Lol the way you pronounced York.....shire😅😂!! I'm from England and that's not how we pronounce that. But I was so funny. Made me laugh.!
That HOA hits close to me. When i was 5 years old, someone tossed a chicken laced with rat poison over my wall, and my german shepard, who was a glutton, ate it. He died later that day
Should have got the feds to go after those crooked Cops.
First story straight up movie material
Good job momma!
The hoa secretary is lucky to be alive. I don’t know a single farmer who doesn’t own a gun
Someone who "gets chronic migrains twice a day" does not belong on a police force.
Tape them tape, a total 24 hour tape of all the racket that they’re making and then put your speakers outside station towards their house and turn the thing on and leave it at full volume for at least 24 hours
You could pretty easily mount some subwoofers directly to the walls and insulate them fairly well on your side as to not be totally loud.
I'm a firm believer in "stand your ground" when it comes to bullies and HOAs. Your mom is an OG for grabbing the rifle and saving you. However me personally I would've waited til all hours of the night with a shotgun waiting for the trespassers. 2 shots. One to let them know I mean business, and I don't miss a second time. And the second would send you home, dumped off in the back of my truck. You don't mess with farmers.
If I found poisoned food on my lawn I go straight to hoa headquarters and threw it on their doorstep
I can just imagine the it was at that moment I realized I F'd up looks on HOA dude's face when the rifle barrel was pressed against the back of his head and on gift card scam dude when swarmed by very serious most likely Marines.
Ivona Tinkle! Ivona Tinkle! Hey, guys put down your glasses Ivona Tinkle!
the correct answer to the demand of the HOA president for your land is to channel an ancient british king "I will give you six foot of my good ground, or seen as you are all accounts a tall man, i will give you seven, no more"
a farmer seriously 😂😂😂😂 ✨⭐✨⭐✨⭐✨⭐
I used to work security for a military base on the airfield. the amount of people who try to sneak on post is crazy. We even had a lady with a van full of kids demand to be let on the airfield to see the helicopters. After we told her no she started yelling that we were kidnapping people and keeping them in the hangars and drove off then a few minutes later charged her car through the gate and hit the pop up barriers. The entire time we had her on the ground she was yelling about paying our wages and that we work for her and she will own us after she gets done with us. That was 10 years ago and she is still in jail.
HOA'S need to be seriously reigned in and there needs to be an eastly way out .
Story one Farmers are not the dumb poor uneducated people HOA's think they are and most aren't aware that some farms are very successful to where it would take a number of bad years to sell some or all of the land. 2nd story brilliant. 3rd story being the UK was a little stricter with lockdowns I would call the authorities hang up call back 5 to 10 mins later I would call police report call the council hang up call the police again rinse and repeat. getting up to 70 calls each per day from you. I would also talk with other neighbors in the area that can hear these inconsiderate neighbors five or six house holds calling in to police or council 70 times for each one giving the same address. If only you had multiple phone lines and an auto-dialer with AI to work through any automated system on their end.
Great video as usual, Ripe.😊
I fell asleep to your video playlist and had strange dreams about entitled Karens and psychic HOAs and you were narrating in my dream. Weird right? Until I woke up and the video were still on.😂
Story 2: It's been a long time since I lived/worked near any US military base, so maybe things have changed. Since when is a civilian allowed to shop at a PX?
If a member of the military (or immediate family) brings a friend onto base, that person can buy from the PX. Some items are restricted though, like rank insignias.
ive purchased several properties in my 65 years of life, im a 65 year old married to "steffy" . i never ever even think about considering to purchase a property if it is part of a HOA. if a HOA formed next door to my property i would first send them a legally binding notice that said that if anyone from the HOA set foot on my property they would be trespassing, and this was their legal notice of trespass. that any violator would be PLACED IMMEDIATELY UNDER "CITIZENS ARREST"!!!
THE VERY FIRST THING I DO TO MY PROPERTY IS FENCE IT AND PLACE THE NO TRESPASSING SIGNS AT 1/2 THE LEGAL DISTANCE.
THE SECOND THING I DO IS DIG A BIG DEEP HOLE THAT WILL BURY A DUMP TRUCK!
YOU DONT MESS WITH A HILLBILLY THAT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH PSYCHOPATHY (THAT MEANS IM A REAL LIVE PSYCHOPATH) BACK IN THE 1970'S!!
What I fine most funny is that there is something in our psyches that wants to listen to these improbable situations so we can get upset and complain and say what we would do even as we know the stories are all fiction. :-)

Just a helpful insight to the story about the loud, Noisy neighbors being huge Januses!!?? LOL when the noisy neighbor story Ends 1 section Just before point 25:02, where you end that section of the story....Right at point 25:03, You end up re telling the 2 small sections that you had just finished telling for the story. Just thought you should be aware, I think this is the first time I've seen this happen on YOUR channel. there ARE other story retellers who do this repeating sentences and paragraphs. But, these are GREAT!! video stories.
Cool story bro
It’s infuriating that some HOAs like Story 1 basically resort to Mafia tactics like threatening someone’s life or vandalism.
Threatening others is a good way to get hurt badly.
The last story just brought up something from years back (though thankfully not as bad). There was a local record/CD/audio equipment store that had for a couple of years promoted a "Loudest Car in Town" contest. As you might imagine this got a lot of young men without a clue to go all in and stuff their glammed up rice burners with as much loud stuff as they could afford or steal. The last year I had the unfortunate luck to live about a block away from a house of young guys who were seriously dedicated to winning this contest. Don't get me wrong, I remember being young and dumb, but never anything on the nuclear level of acoustic violence these boys were perpetrating. After a week or so of their impressively loud music ramping up I finally lost it on one late Saturday afternoon. The bass notes from their setup were so loud I could feel it in my chest trying to rearrange my internal organs, and my young children were feeling the same pain. So I went all dad on them - drove around the corner in my cool family mini van and accosted a bunch of late teenaged boys throwing back the beers and, from the smoke haze, high as kites. "Who the f**k lives here?" I demanded. Surpringly, none of them admitted to ever having been at the house before. I yelled at them a bit in a way that taught them some interesting and creative vocabulary and said that if I heard one more sound I would be calling the cops. Then the more convincing argument. "Since none of you live here, just want to let you know that even the guy in that house is p***ed of with you. He's a full patch Hell's Angel (true) and he's not going to be calling the cops." Music was shut down and several cars that had been parked all over the lawn suddenly had somewhere else to be. Never happened again and that was, due to so many complaints, the last year that stupid contest was held. And I did lie about the HA guy being pissed off, but it was fun to see the punks suddenly realize that they had to visit a sick grandmother or something. Sometimes the best way to get the coackroaches to scurry is to shine a bright light on them or at least put the fear of stomping into them.
I had a friend who was a military man's son back in primary school. Before 9/11 i could go and hand out with him on military premises, but afterwards, I had to be picked up by one of his parents to be allowed to come.
Farmer should have threatened to convert his farm to a pig farm.
Story 2: just to be pedantic. Being the bottom of the totem pole means you're actually the strongest out of everyone because you are supporting everyone else on your shoulders 😎👍 so what people really mean when they say that is that they should be "the top of the totem pole"
In rural northern CA, my Sheriff says if someone comes at me aggressively on my property to shoot them and call him for body disposal.
