Hope you made those security cameras nice and noticeable for them. I'd say flood lights but that could screw up your girls.

Do you understand meth heads?
Let me explain it plainly..
They are completely fucked in the head. There are thousands upon thousands of stories about metheads doing unthinkable shit to people for money and or drugs.. This particular group has already tried to strong arm them for their shit, you think their not stupid enough to take it to the next level? That kind of thinking is what creates meth head victims..
Did I say it was easy to move? If I was living next door to meth heads that knew I was growing and was threatening me, you can bet your ass I would be concerned and on very high alert..
To each their own.

Best of luck to you and yours.

We installed video surveillance immediately after that. We could never prove it, but we know they had been coming over and cutting branches off our girls for years. And this was when everything was supposedly "cool" between us.

Glad you are taking precautionary steps...
"cool" really doesn't exist in meth heads, some would kill their own mothers (and have) for money or otherwise..
Truely best of luck and glad to hear the raid wasn't a bad story for you and yours.

Yep, flood lights were obviously out of the question. My original point was that from my very personal experience, I was able to see that (for the most part), it's not the cops on the beat that have a problem with marijuana, it's their anal-retentive superiors who make the rules.

Cops are pretty decent for the most part, they're still people.

Glad to hear your stuff was left untouched!....Fuck Tweekers!
I had something like that happen to me 2 years ago. (The cops just came!)
Police haven't been back since!

I understood, no worries. When "Danny" made us the offer he didn't think we could refuse... THAT was when we actually did think about leaving. But then we realized if we did that, we would be walking away from a life we had spent almost 20 years putting together, our growroom, our outdoor grow (which we totally enclosed), 20 years of memories. And besides, there was no one who could guarantee us that we wouldn't have tweaker neighbors AGAIN. At least we know these idiots. My radar is so good with them now that I always know if something's up. Although even with surveillance, my husband and I actually now take turns "sleeping" with our outdoor girls once they begin to "smell". Wow, nothing like sleeping outside with your plants.

Yes! We also looked into that before we decided on surveillance. I was very hesitant at first to tell the security companies what I needed watched. Imagine my surprise when I was told over and over again...."Oh yeah, we get calls for that all the time". Not a single one had an issue with it.

i have to agree with the above statement, it is simply the unvarnished truth, i hope you folks are armed........at the same time it is deeply ingrained in many of us (who have lived and loved in the black market for years) to NEVER call cops, NEVER......if we are not strong enough to survive nature's dangers without crying for help, then perhaps nature will do away with us in her own time anyway....thugs in black, thugs on meth, beware of both.......thank goodness, you and your husband survived both so far!!

My husband and I were smoking waaaaaay back in the 60's. Yes, it was rooted deeply in our souls to NEVER trust a cop..... NEVER. We felt that even if we could prove extortion (which we couldn't), once we called the cops out that they would turn on us instead. Forty years of looking over your shoulder while you're getting high is hard to shake off. But once those police came, saw and left without doing a single thing..... It was the tweakers who were left being paranoid, not us. It was the best thing those psychotic idiots could have done for us.

Apparently we're about the same age.
I did a lot of Meth in the late 60's but got lucky and left the whole scene when strangers started appearing at friend's houses. Clean cut guys with lots of money. Three weeks later, EVERYONE I knew was in jail, except me. It was a major sting, that scared me silly.
Twenty years later, I ran into a few of my old friends. They now were identical to your neighbors. I'm very thankful I had that one lucid moment, 40 years ago. Most of those guys were dead before they reached 50.
I'm another that has no faith in police.
One thing I did learn is that thieves do NOT like being told by a cop that they are aware of their adventures in thievery.
I strongly recommend that once you are confirmed in compliance, you make a point of mentioning incidents like the one you mention. Our police were appalled when we told them why we didn't call them about being ripped. "We don't trust you" was our comment. They include such things in their reports, which might be helpful if the idiots do something, down the line.
They went next door and told the thieves what they thought about thieves calling in complaints.(Did I mention they were "Ex cranksters" living with their elderly mother?)
I still wouldn't call a cop if I got ripped off, again. If I get lucky, the thieves would wish I had.

I am not saying or suggesting anything, but meth heads have a habit of burning down their crib sooner or later.
Just saying if they are threatening you or your family's safety...just saying I never heard of a meth lab being burnt down due to arson.

30 years ago, my husband and I also lost our souls to meth. When it began to destroy our love for each other, we both (at the same moment) said "I think it's time we quit". Never touched the shit again. But you never forgot the tweaker lifestyle. We can spot a tweaker a mile away because we were there once.
We have taken other precautions and once again feel safe in our home. We have a plan if attacked and it covers every accessible entry. Can you say "Kill Shot"????
