The Internet was cutting in and out while I was trying to chat with Maliheh yesterday. The fucking thing has driven me crazier than Jesse and his mutts ever could! But all they’d do if we called would be to tell us either everything was ok or that they’d “check into it” after keeping us on hold for hours. AT&T sucks! I cannot wait to be back on cable!
Really worried about Maliheh. sighs Seems like it’s a no-win situation with problem neighbors no matter what you do. You either keep your mouth shut and take their shit, or you fight back and you STILL take their shit.
She got a pig to cite her neighbor for letting his dog bark up a storm. The neighbor appealed, lost, and had to pay $100. Well, now the cock and his wife are getting revenge on her by stalking and harassing her as if her complaint was unreasonable. Yeah, how dare we make people take responsibility for their dogs or their children or pay for their crimes! I guess it’s only human nature to want to deny and counter-attack when confronted with any wrongdoings. Hey, I was 100% guilty of the prank calls I was charged with. I knew that, the phone company knew that, and the law knew that. Doesn’t mean I wanted to fess up and pay for them, though. I’m only human.
She’s basically going through what we went through in Phoenix. Can you guess their race? Yup, you got it. They’re renters but not welfare bums like what we had. The cock is 61 and retired, but still referees kids’ soccer games or something like that.
God help her if they have any cop friends to do to her what was done to me, but from the sound of it, he’s a known troublemaker to the law. Still, that doesn’t change the fact that whites are not only the new minorities, especially where she lives, and the fact that our society/laws favor blacks. Judges always find for the blacks when it’s a case involving whites no matter who was actually in the wrong. It’s been that way since the LA riots.
The cock apparently was in her backyard calling her names and for her to come out, etc. She recorded it with her iPad as she told the cock she would get a lawyer and sue him and his landlord. Well, that right there is more ammunition than we ever had since our troublemakers didn’t come into our yard to taunt and bully us. They were actually a little more sly and clever with their abuse. It’s a little scary to think that someone who knows damn well they’re being filmed would so blatantly break the law like that. Either they don’t mind going to jail or they know they can just play the race card and get away with it. That’s another thing that worries me – all they have to do is claim she made racial slurs at them (though just like with us, Maliheh would never do that because their color isn’t the issue as opposed to their behavior) and they’re automatically believed. It’s the magic word for blacks these days – he/she called me racial slurs. When it’s whites feuding with whites, no one cares. When it’s gays getting fucked over, no one cares. But as soon as it’s blacks and whites feuding, everybody cares…for the blacks.
While most employers pass over whites for blacks these days regardless of who’s more qualified, they don’t just do it because they favor them. Most of the time it’s because they genuinely prefer blacks, yes, but sometimes they’re afraid to not hire them for fear of getting hit with a discrimination suit they know damn well they’ll lose no matter what their true reasons may be for not hiring them.
I totally believe without a doubt that not only were OJ Simpson and Michael Jackson guilty as charged but that the jury was afraid to convict for fear of a riot igniting. A piss poor excuse if you ask me, like a mother always giving in to her two-year-old that is spoiled and takes a temper tantrum every time it doesn’t get its way. People should be held accountable for their actions regardless of color. All Maliheh ever wanted was for them to stop the barking. Knowing her as well as I’ve come to know her, I can’t believe she did anything to provoke or deserve the shit she’s getting from these losers, and I know she doesn’t give a damn about skin color or nationality. The only ones I know she has any ill feelings toward are Arabs. Yes, Arabs are the worst of the bunch, but blacks are runner-up with their tempers, IMO anyway.
She doesn’t like guns and it may put her at risk for some serious retaliation, but in some states, one has the right to shoot any trespassers, especially one screaming taunts and threats. I told her she should think about that if it gets that bad, but then again, the courts would probably still find a way to turn things around and make it look like she popped the bastard for his color and not the real reason.
Someone asked me if I liked dogs. I told them I had nothing against dogs themselves, just the racket they make. Well, I see blacks as I see dogs. I don’t give a shit about their color, but I sure don’t like the way so many of them treat others! It’s like they just don’t want to get along with anybody. As Maliheh herself said, some people are so rude and disrespectful to others and just don’t give a shit how their actions may affect others.
Yet blacks don’t want to hear you complain about them, and whites don’t want to hear you complain about them either. Instead, they are widely loved, accepted, favored and given all kinds of special treatment all because everybody seems to think whites owe them for what our ancestors did to their ancestors a million years ago – WTF?! There will always be some blacks that get picked on for no reason at all and that’s too bad, but no one seems to want to see or acknowledge it when it’s the other way around as it is much, much more often these days. Well, I have no sympathy for blacks these days. 50 years ago, sure. Today, no way.
I also don’t agree that we’re always 100% responsible for our own actions either. I think that sometimes we really do instigate, influence and provoke the actions of others and that we can be just as responsible for them as they are. I was the one that hurled myself out the window when I was 17. But did others have a hand in encouraging it? Many people think they did, not that they’d ever have been held accountable for it. Today they might because the laws have gotten tougher on that sort of thing, but this was back in 1983. The point is that one can only be pushed so far for so long. You know, sort of like the woman who’s been abused for so long who finally beats, stabs or shoots her man? Well, I’d say he kind of asked for it in the end. Let’s hope this cock that’s been picking on my friend doesn’t ask for anything similar! As much as she’d love to put them in the hospital, she’s trying to play it smart like I am with Jesse and his mutts cuz she doesn’t want the hassles of court, jail or whatever, no matter what the outcome may be.
She says they don’t blast music, but they’ve had kids pestering her, they’ve driven over her yard, and of course the barking has been rather maddening. I just hope they either leave or lay off the poor girl if the courts aren’t going to do anything to help her. The good thing is that she’s 55 now and has also wanted to be in a 55+ community, so she’ll be on the lookout once her lease is up in about a year.
Later…
There’s a beautiful doublewide that’s new and spacious just two miles from work. Only they may want a few more grand down on it than we’ve got at the moment. We’re still going to scout the area this weekend. It’s a 2-bed/2-bath for 42K. I don’t think we could get the down payment lowered, though because it’s not the park management that has the say in it, but the lender themselves and they’re not going to want any less than they ask for. If they have trouble selling it, though I don’t see why they would, maybe they’d agree to at least rent it or something. I’m still torn between owning and renting and between paying more for something nicer instead of saving tons of money with a tiny old dump.
I never expected any place to be totally silent, but I still think daytime barking could still be an issue even in a retirement community. I don’t see anything in the rules that stipulates anything against keeping dogs outside round the clock or from excessive barking. Maybe they won’t be out all day long, but for a few hours here and a few hours there when the owners are out running errands, wouldn’t surprise me. Well, if we did decide to go with the smaller, older trailer that’s really close to other trailers, where would they put the mutts since there’s hardly any yard space there? The only option I can see is to tie them to the carport posts and that would be beyond maddening.
I misunderstood Nane. She actually has 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a terrace and a garage. Now that’s not bad at all for what she’s paying.
The problem is that while there are plenty of gray areas, the gray areas are mostly apartments. We could have our cake and eat it too with one of those and be able to save money while we had something spacious and modern with plenty of amenities. But that’s not what I want. Therefore, that pretty much leaves the white and black options open; own something outright that’s a tiny dump too close to others or let a nicer place with some breathing room around it suck every last dime out of us. Sooner or later God’s going to miss picking on us and will want to yank the carpet out from under our feet. Well, when He lets Tom be laid off or fired by a boss who may be in a bad mood cuz someone spilled his coffee, I don’t want to be in a $1200 place when it happens.
