trashcan theif
« on: July 12, 2011, 03:51:33 pm »
recently we got new neighbors and they are african american and i dont mind but when our garbage cans came up missing and i seen they were on their property i had a fit and went over there and took back what was mine and now they have disappeared again and my fiance doesnt want me to do ne thing about it coz they are just trash cans but this has never happened to us and our neighbors have never taken ne thing from us until they moved in. i am gonna talk to the landlord about the issue as soon as i see him again. my fiance wants to move out of here as soon as possible coz he doesnt like them and he is prejudice but ir not like he calls them the "N" word. I dont like that word and i wish it wasnt used but we have freedom of speech so i cant do nething about it.

Around here, everybody writes their house or building number on the cans.

Strange that they took your trash cans. I would call the police and have an officer go speak with them about it.

Maybe it was an accident and they do not know that it belongs to you, I would write your address on it and if it happens again then call police.

Aye, just write your address on the cans. If they end up on your neighbor's property after you do that, then maybe you should consider having another good talk with them or keeping your cans in another place.

sorry to hear what has happened to you. but it doesnt really matter what thier nationality is. Hell I have white neighbors and they are just as bad. Ive taken pictures to document stuff and called the police several times and we were told their hands are tied. the only real way to make them stop is to sue them. so far this year the worst they have done is cut down a tree and have it land on the electric poles and then not clean the rest of the tree branches out of the road. I live on a dead end road so we have no choice but to drive past their house. sounds like you might be just as prejuidice as your husband

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. J/K! This is an odd topic. Perhaps your new neighbor doesn’t know whether they have their own trash can so it is recommended that you speak with your landlord to resolve this peacefully. Good luck with you and your neighbor.  :peace:

What?????  She didn't say anything about being prejudice, but said her boyfriend was. Sounds like you are judgmental and want to apply racial accusations, when none were coming from kangagirl1321.  And if your going to accuse someone of prejudice, at least learn how to spell it.

You sound like the biased media concerning our President and how they want to paint the public "racist" when they don't appreciate his leadership. Get real, I could care less if he was green. The color of skin has nothing to do with intelligence or common sense. Of which he has neither.

wow that's weird lol who steals trash cans - and no, it is a big deal because say your trash cans cost $15-$20 and you make minimum wage, that's about 2-3 hours of your time being stolen too!
