Fuck them, my amp would be going up to 11 on the back porch every night with the most grating metal sound I could dial in

In.

Sounds like it's time to buy that super stock muscle car with exhaust cutouts he always wanted

What.  The  Fuck.

Is That?

Bricktop has the solution to this problem OP.

Damn.......sounds like a neighbor I used to have with the note shit.   She kept writing notes and handing out AA material cause she did not like me mowing my grass and drinking beer

People that fragile are awesome.   You can get the result you want simply by hiring an English tutor and sending them to her house with the note.    I am sure a local ARFcomer would be happy to play the role.

I'd contact PS about neighbor making threats and filing false reports with the police. Also cameras.


If neighbor escalates the issue, I'd invite everyone I knew over for a bbq every weekend for the next month. I'd also be outside checking the porch for nails during dinner.

You are my new project manager

Why would anyone have to do anything about that note.  Exactly what is supposed to happen if you don't comply?  People that leave notes like that go and complain to anyone who will listen, but nothing ever becomes of it.  
If I was going to do anything about it, I'd get together with other neighbors, and gaslight the idiot who thinks they can make you move.

old people and cursive handwriting  

Take the batteries out of her life alert

I'd write back and politely tell that person to mind their own business. I could read the whole letter- and it contradicts it's self at least twice.
YOU HAVE ONE WEEK!  Who the hell does this person think they are?!?! Seriously. Your brother in law has the same rights to his home, time with family, to rest and to PLAY- same as the writer- but who seems to think that right only applies to them.

I used to have a neighbor like that who lived 3 tenths of a mile down the road from me & he would complain about my music too & would also yell at me, giving me shit for walking through my own deeded right of way, which is a 20ft wide path on the edge of their property line.
He was a grumpy older man from NY who lived there eight months of the year and then would come to his place here in Maine for 2-3months of the summer. Anyway, I basically went through the same thing & he even attempted legal action, but didn't have a leg to stand on...
There is no way my music that far away could bother him the way he said it did and he'd even complain when I wasn't doing anything at all but watching t.v.-lol- When it first started though, I would just try to be polite, mind my own business & continue doing what I was doing.
But after 5-6yrs of it I finally had to say something to him. He was elderly so even though we had this disagreement, I still managed to keep respect for my elders in regards to my words with him. Well, that didn't work.

And then one day I just blew my top because he started verbally (cussing) & nastily attacking my 65yr old mother & 5yr old daughter, saying to them "Who the hell are you- You can't use this effing right of way!" I told my mom & daughter to keep walking, then I walked over to him and finally told him to get off my back in so many words; "I've been putting up with your shit for well over 6yrs now, you know who I am & my family, WE live here too and ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE, SO GET USED TO IT!  And I will have any family or friends that I want enjoying the summer- just like you come here to do. So stuff it up your ass." in so many words. After that I would get the stink eye for the next few years but he never bothered me or my family again. It's been 17yrs now total, but yeah it sucks to have people like that around you.

Cameras are a great idea...always!

Knock on her door at 3am, wearing a killer clown costume, make sure to buy up her good stuff at her estate sale.

I would be down for this

This. It's a threatening letter. Turn it in to the cops, get a camera, and live life.

i would set up a chop saw and convert a 2x4 into 1/4 inch slices every morning at 9am

It's the lady that posted on FB about the KKK knocking at her door.

Did you delete the image?  There is no longer a link to it.

As for what I would do, I would make my own letter saying...

STOP BEING CHICKEN SHIT WITH THE ANONYMOUS NOTES AND SAY WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY TO MY FACE

...and put it on her own door.  It's not intimidating so the cops can't do anything about it.  If the notes aren't coming from her then she will have no idea where it came from so no harm done.  If it is her, it will wake her up out of her La La old Woman world that she isn't hidden in the shadows like she imagines she is.  

Bullies are bullies because they get away with being bullies.    The only way to get bullying to stop is to let the bullies know that bullying will get painful for them quickly and they need to bully someone else.

I hate my neighbors and they respect me.

Former JBT here.

As others said, cameras first. Next time (there will be a next time) the police come over show them the note and explain the situation.

Learn the noise ordinances. They will be your BIL's best friend.

If your BIL does the above, he'll have no (legal) worries and the police will quickly get sick of the caller and go have a word with them (yes they can see who the "anonymous" caller is).

Personally, I recommend tuning his chain saw during daylight hours, play some music, etc.  I was dispatched several times to the same place for the exact situation. There was never a violation and the "perps" were cool people. Finally I talked to the caller and asked if they wanted to talk to the neighbor and work things out. He said "nah man. We at war!"

Report it to the police, they will send their top detectives and forensic team to get to the bottom of this.


Some of you guys are nuttier than the person who wrote the note.

There is a small section of woods behind them with a house that can be seen through there. I bet a big privacy fence and cameras would do it.

Maybe even a "security" spot light aimed at their window.

I recommend investigating who it is, going up to them and telling them to FOAD. he only ging to be there what 2-3 years before he moves on anyway.  Like everyone else. She old and a loser and knows it. BTW the note is evidence.

Something similar happened to us but our neighbor thought we were starving our pets for some reason? So they would come over and feed them people food and the dogs would shit all over our house. We thought they had some intestional problem so after a 200.00 vet bill later we found out the neighbors were feeding them. The nighbor neighbor came over and cut limbs off OUR tree, (they live 3 doors down btw) eventually tried to force their way into our house. My wife gave her the stiff arm and slammed the door in her face. Called 911 and had the lady recorded screaming obsentites through the door. Cops arrive and bust the woman on our back porch as she tried to run away and deny being in our yard. The police inspect the dogs and see that they have a 50 lb bag of high $$ food and seem very happy and healthy. Neighbor gets tresspass warrent. Oh the lay's husband was the HMO president for several years until he decided to go measure people's lawns with a ruler-no lie.

Crazy doesn't go away, it gets worse. If that ladys is making threats now and put it on paper the cops need to know just to CYA. It is only going to get worse.

This made me LOL.

They both bark here and there at whatever but they don't stay outside all day or anything. They just go out to pee.

Why bring innocent cats into this



 

OP, a leaf blower and lawn mower early in the morning and right at sunset.  Works great at warming up the neighbors.
I find it very relaxing to sit in a lawn chair with a cold beer and just continue squeezing the trigger on a leaf blower.  Rev it up and let go, rev it up and let go, you get the picture.

So when is the all night keger at the Bro-in-laws.  Do we need to bring any loud entertainment.

the police probably know of her already as a frequent caller.

outdoor speakers playing tina turner, nickelback and sepultura should be a good start.

Another vote for cameras...I have six installed and they are great (day and night vision).

Ooh, old neighbors who think the police are their personal conflict resolution service thread!

IN!

true but suppose his car gets randomly keyed or gas on his lawn.

I would like to let them know that i'm not crazy.

 

That's the only pic I have. Will try to get one later.

Get a permit from the city and have an all day party with a live band.  Invite the neighbors including her.  Repeat often.

Put up cams.

Get a Great Pyrenees.  They do not bark unless there is an immediate threat in the yard, otherwise they are very quiet.  This is a documented fact about the breed.   They are also scary as hell to people who do not understand dogs because they are big.  Walk it past the suspected neighbor daily.

Be sure that you are not doing anything to give her ammunition - I can guarantee she is keeping a shit list on everything you do (how fast she thinks you drive - daily, the slightest noise, cleanliness of your property, anything that can be considered against code, etc.).  You may want to consider practicing your guitar someone else, or at least keep the volume down - maybe build a soundroom so that you can defend any of her complaints about noise.

Befriend your neighbors and look for opportunities to provide service.  You stellar reputation against her battiness will prevail.  Do what is necessary so that your credibility puts you above her reproach.

As already stated, file a police report about her note.  Tell police you feel threatened by it and would like an investigation done as to who wrote it.  

Hold an emergency cola warrior in his back yard asap. Crotchety old bitch will probably have a heart attack.

Document everything and be ready for a restraining order and no contact order.



I empathize on the barking dog issue but only in so much of yapping piles of crap that no joke bark 24/7.   After a year of putting up with it I finally called on a neighbors dog.    I didnt handle it myself because I dont feel like getting Arocked by a neighbor calling my employer(LE) and making crap up or even legitimately complaining.

But dogs that occasionally bark or howl at sirens dont bug me.   But that dog that barks every 5-10 minutes because it is bored and nobody comes outside to deal with it?   And when I have talked to neighbors who share a fence line and also hate that dog, sside from lynch mob neighbors collectively knocking in the door the complaint to police was easier.

Not even remotely suggesting brother in law situation with two weiner dogs is close to the same.

Old lady is out to be the hitler of the neighborhood.   She likely has years of practice at being manipulative and vindictive.   She might even be a sue happy sort that has nothing but free time on her hands.

He is already in a band. Plays/has drums and guitars, etc.

Only one thing to do in this situation...Toga party!

Nothing, but at least it is documented and reported to the police.  He can probably fill out a report online if his PD has that ability.  Otherwise he can file a counter report.

Given that she had to go on to his property to leave the note, he can also have a trespass notice served on her by the county or city (depending on who does it).  No charges are likely, but at least he can get the "threat" documented.
