Neighbors Videotaping

[Postman]

This pedophile thing is getting out of hand. put your kids in burkas or keep them inside. Walmarts stores have an hundreds of video cameras, even in childrens wear. By your deductions Walmart is a pedophile.

To the person who last posted, who has the 9 yr old daughter and the female pedafile neighbor-

The cops won't do anything but you can by simply going to the police station and filing a complaint against her because BY LAW YOUR PRIVACY IS PROTECTED, her video taping public view is not against the law, but if she is video taping your back yard, your private property then she is breaking the law!!! I don't care what state you live in the bottom line is, when you call police to come out, they are limited to what they can do for you, it is up to you to go to the station, file a harrassment charge including destruction of your property, violation of privacy and harrassment with video taping your children. In the meantime, plot that when the girls are out there and see this wacky lady video taping them, you then take YOUR camera out and video her taping your kids, you don't have to do this, but in the event the judge needs proof, you have it. Gather as much evidence as need be.
Know that it is never too late to press charges, if this happened 2 weeks ago or a month ago, you can still file the complaint and go to court.

We have renters who carry on something awful, this is a nice neighborhood aside from these "animals" there are numerous complaints to the police, so many that they were summons 2x of $400.00 and still continue to act like this, we were informed that we can video tape for proof, but that we must be careful as to where we video tape, cannot tape their back yard, only what is in public view such as the street, their sidewalk MAYBE their front yard depending on what activity is taking place, for example when they try to use our yard, theirs, and their next door neighbors yard as a football field then I can video all activity including their front yard because it is them coming from their yard, running on ours etc..

Also, cops don't really know legal advice because I went to the station and informed the chief clerk officer that I did not need them on my lawn, if they get hurt they can sue us, he said "sue you for their own stupidity?" I said "well think about it, anyone can sue anyone for anything now days and win, look at the woman who spilled coffee on herself and sued Mc Donalds? and how many people slip on the ice in front of other people's homes and businesses and sue for that?" he still didn't believe we would be responsible but yes, if these kids get hurt on our property we by law are responsible which is why I want them to stay off!
Just as the twisted law is that when your car is in reverse, even if someone deliberately slams into you, it is your fault because your car was in reverse.
If someone backs up at a red light and hits your car, you are liable because their back is damaged. any damage to another car's rear is the other persons fault. Screwed up isn't it? Just as we were taught to look both ways before crossing the street, now? children and adults just walk out in front of your car, never look, just cross, if they get hit, you are at fault. The laws are screwed up, laws are not for the innocent anymore. You have to fight with all you have, do whatever you have to because if you don't it will get worse, and very ugly. I am at the point right now of pressing charges against these neighbors, you get pushed to that breaking point enough times, you just do it without a second thought. As leary as you may feel and I may feel about taking action, no one will protect ourselves but ourselves, knowing this, we have little choice, the next time there is a situation, action must be taken to show we won't put up with this crap anymore!

Many hugs

When I said my neighbor was video taping my kids, I didn't say anything about "pedophile" .. I merely said it was a violation of privacy.. Other people I have spoke to did mention the word 'pervert' when I told them about my neighbor.
It makes me wonder why after reading what I wrote, you would come up with that deduction yourself...

You seem like a negative person making the suggestion to leave the kids in the house or dress them up in burkas. Not a fan of children? you were once one yourself, and I'm sure your parents would have been just as concerned for your safety.

I for one don't condone the morally wrong acts of peering perverted adults.. unlike yourself.. Kids like anybody else should have the freedom to be able to play in their back yard with out being video taped, and thats all there is to it.

Many police depts will not allow you to point a camera at your neighbor's yard and film etc.

And they will require it be stopped. This can be for reasons of harassment, questions of purpose, even sexual questions etc.

Bottom line you do not have a 100% right to film anything you wish as to your neighbor. If it is purely for harassment they can be stopped.
