So let me get this right. Texas moves one of their crazy thug POS's to LA and government officials won't do anything about that... you don't see any irony in that?

Nothing you can do about an annoying neighbor if he isn’t breaking the law. Not everyone in the world has to conform to your way of life.

That’s nice - but OP lives in Central Texas

Plus, if he’s not yelling at anyone in particular, the cops will tell him to shut up and move on. ETA: if they even show up

We had a few schizos frequent the public library - nothing was ever done until one whipped out a box cutter

Agree, cower inside and never leave.


Who said cower? I said ignore. Unless the walls of said house are paper thin or the guy has a bullhorn I don’t understand how one could hear what he was shouting? Between the TV in the house (or radio), other noise like the A/c blowing, kids doing whatever etc I doubt I’d hear anyone screaming unless they were on my front porch. If I was outside and the guy wouldn’t shut up I’d call the cops and hope he ended up tazed, probably antagonize him while I awaited their arrival to ensure it.

My grandparents used to live next to this big hollering retard. He'd walk around with his arms out like Frankenstein and kind of moan and lunge at you. Scared the piss out of me as a little kid

I always love the audacity of these kinds of snobby comments. Like OP is abnormal and out of line for wanting his neighborhood to not have a crazy person disturbing the peace all of the time.

It would be a shame if someone ran him over while he was walking to the store one night. Especially if none of the Ring doorbell cameras were on when it happened.

Not a fatal hit. Heavens no. Just a thump that would confine him to his home or a hospital.

sounds like the entire neighborhood has tried to get this guy tied with with some sort of charge with the local jurisdiction and it hasn’t worked…. So I’d err on the side of caution in saying he’s ‘disturbed the peace’

Call the police and say he threatened to commit suicide.

If hes so unstable he will react poorly and end up getting into an inpatient setting where they will get him back on his meds.

Good idea


You could also tie him up and poke him with a stick

You should try to out crazy him. Ask him why the lizard people are always going around the neighborhood sticking their forked tongue out at people.

I understand where the guy is coming from. I too, enjoy Jamaican women, fricking love cocaine, and have all kinds of ethnicities in my neighborhood.

It’s not like he’s hollering blasphemy.

Stuff dryer sheets up his dryer vent. Then light them on fire. Untraceable.

True story.

I have cousins that had a neighbor with over 2 dozen dogs. They approached them about it, and the guy got aggressive. Cousins called police and they ordered him get rid of some dogs to comply with law. Went to court, and other neighbors testified.

Neighbor started cutting down trees on cousins property. Tires slashed. Graffiti on cars.

Cousin confronted them, with audio recording and the nut pushed an old lady and threatened to burn their house down.

Their house burned. Kooky guy arrested and convicted of arson.

Long way of saying… get cameras. Avoid him. Crazy people do crazy shiat.

Middle aged guy living alone in a house. Was a nice neighborhood all 9 years we've been here. Will try to be quick & to the point. His family own a house across street & about 3 down from me. Their 50 yr old unstable son has worn out his welcome at various apartment complexes over his 3 years here (Central Texas) since coming from Los Angeles. His brother told me he stopped taking his psych meds. No car. He walks to local gas station to reload for beer. Struts down streets blocking traffic ignoring sidewalks. Screams very vulgar cusswords all hours of the day & night. He's been here 10 days & multiple neighbors, me included, have called the cops 6 times & counting. Before I knew he was psych I approached him to dial down the language as kids were walking home from school one street over & he went off on me so I just walked away & called cops. All the cops tell us is unless he gets violent they can't do anything. They assure us he's never been violent. No perv records. His brother who I texted apologized we're putting up with this & said he'd try to get him to take his meds. Now he doesn't reply to texts. I gave our HOA all the info on this guy. Frustrating as hell. I feel for the guy because he's disturbed but it ain't right for my whole subdivision to put up with this BS.



You have two options.

1. Wait it out. Eventually as schizophrenics when they go off their meds do something that gets them hospitalized.

2. Since he is a paranoid schizophrenic you can try to speed up the process by parking your car in different locations on the street but facing his house. Leave your blinds open in random windows.

Personally I would recommend option 1 but it's your life so the choice is yours.

Catch him when he’s walking in a hoodie, then shoot his arse and plant a bag of skittles on him

You’ll get off Scott free
