+1.  You say the neighbor is engaged in illegal activity.  Why are you not reporting this to the police?[/quote]

Y’all are profoundly stupid. There are many reasons not to do this.[/quote]

Well it's a sad commentary on society if we cannot report criminal activity, out of fear.  So the criminals run the place, and we just exist in their world?

We live in an upscale suburb, but in a small house on a street with small original houses (Cape Cod and ranch style) from the 1950's.  There is a family who'd lived in one of the houses for 3 generations.  The 20-something sons were under-achievers who were living with their mom, and started dealing drugs.  I did not even realize it, but many neighbors caught on.  They called the police on these 20-somethings.  It helped to get law enforcement involved, and eventually the sons realized that they needed to get legitimate jobs and support themselves.  Our street is 100x more peaceful with them gone.  (And their mom is probably less stressed.)  It made me realize how much of an impact a bad neighbor can have.  Many people on our street were ready to move. [/quote]
