Yes, it's always people who "live in a very safe area" who have these dumb things. Why bother living in a safe area if you don't feel safe? |
Well someone is super judgmental today. No, actually. We have a Ring, doorbell and cameras, b/c we have a daughter who is starting to stay home alone and we want her to see who is at the door. We live near parkland, with no streetlights and homeless people and others have been seen wandering in the area on occasion. It makes us feel safer even if we aren't. Why don't you not worry about my Ring cameras and worry instead about your own flaws. There's plenty to work with there. |
| I was on the jury of a burglary case in DC that used evidence from several neighbor's camera systems including ring doorbell footage from the next door neighbor. The guy was staking out several places and would ring the doorbells to find out if someone was home. |
So your friends experience made you paranoid... |
What do you care if PP is paranoid? Or if I am? Stay away/off my property and my camera won't bother you all. |
Put in a request for a streetlight. We did and a few years later got one. |
Or try the poophole, which people have been using for years. |
This is exactly the problem with neighbors like you. So uneighborly and assuming something wrong with anyone who comes onto your porch. Why don't you move to Florida so you can shoot people who dare to scare you by knocking on your door? Just get the hell out of our neighborhoods, which used be to safe AND welcoming. |
That way the Ring video will be even more clear - good idea! Thanks. |
If you go to your neighbor's porch to drop off a batch of delicious homemade Christmas cookies there will be no worries. If you go to your neighbor's porch to swipe their Christmas wreath then that's a different story. Unless you are doing something wrong or weird who cares if your neighbor has a Ring doorbell? |

No rear entry, please!

Peepholes require users to come to the door and stand basically pressed to it. A) An individual can see or hear you on approach B) Its dangerous if its a predator as Jayme Closs' father found out The suspect said he began pounding on the family’s front door and that James Closs thought he might be a cop and demanded to see his badge. Patterson shot a single bullet at the dad’s head through a small window in the door and burst into the house, he told cops. https://nypost.com/2019/01/14/chilling-details-of-jayme-closs-kidnapping-revealed/ |

How about if you want a ring doorbell, get a ring doorbell. Use it and feel better. Don't try to pressure anyone else to get a ring doorbell.
AND If you don't want a ring doorbell, do not get a ring doorbell. Don't use one and be happy. Don't try to shame anyone else who has a ring doorbell. |
It’s not paranoia if it’s actually based in close-to-home fact. Worry about what you’re doing that you’re so scared of having caught on camera. |
