>>64447587>look everywhere around propertyI was doing this from inside looking out windows by the way, I'm too much of a pussy to confront someone with the balls to stand on someone's property and stare at their house in the middle of the night.
>>64447587yeah, it be like that sometimes.

The fact you yelled at him probably spooked him into running off. Chances are there could be some kinda homeless enclave in the woods or some shit. Especially if you live near major urban areas (particularly ones with serious drug problems...)
>>64447587That was me. Sorry I get lost sometimes.
>>64447620Couldn't find him anyway >>64447624Live in the middle of the desert in meth town nevada.

>>64447631>Live in the middle of the desert in meth town nevada.Buzzards and 'Yotes gotta eat too, bud.
>>64447587Set up some perimiter lights and install some cheap security cameras, you could even put some of those sensors that say you are being recorded. >>64447631>meth town nevadaYea, it could very well be some homeless tweaker camp. I doubt the tweaker was doing anything other than fucking around. Still better than it being some carte l shit or whatever, but also gives you a reason to be prepared, for all I know they could be scoping out places for theft.
>>64447635Are your door screws the short ones that came with it or actual full length screws? If full length, then you're fine.>windowyou little weirdo lmaoImagine him slowly sliding it open with the focus only a methed out man trying to get a score can manage.

>>64447724>Idk bro who checks their fucking screws?The strike plate on most doors is installed with 1/2'' screws which means the only thing holding your door closed if someone kicks it is 1/2'' of pine trim. Go to a hardware store and get some 3 or 4'' deck screws. Those will reach the studs around the door frame and make your house much more secure.
>>64447587Cops literally don't give 2 shits about your safety. They routinely show up 3 hours later after a trip to dunkin and watching an entire LOTR movie in their car if there's even a remote chance they might be in a potentially dangerous situation.They'll show up right away if you say "there's been a shooting and they're gone/come take a statement" to berate you like a child in typical cop fashion while trying to get you to incriminate yourself.
>>64447587This type of intense paranoia ans suspiciousness is a surefire sign of a developing psychosis. I'm willing to bet that the tweaker didn't even exist and is just one of OP's hallucinations.
>>64447620Whats up big guy?
>>64447793Wendigo anon, sorry it had to be you
>>64447639I can Imagine a tweaker freaking out listening to "you are being recorded" and trying even harder to break in, to recover the recording or some shit. Maybe I am paranoid, but you have to think like one of them to plan your defences accordingly.
>>64447793I feel like having night vision would have made this easier. Just turn off all the lights and sneak up on the guy.But I also think your story is fake, because you stated the temperature in celcius.
This is why people don't celebrate Halloween anymore. Take your meds
>All these posts saying tweakers are harmlessly tweaking and don't pose any threat.You people are insane or naive. At best they are there to rob the place. They are looking for anything expensive that they can pick up. They will walk into open garages and through open doors if they see them. They can attack you if they're cornered, because all they care about is getting their next fix. Tweakers are not senile old men who escaped their retirement home. They're dangerous drug addicts.
>>64447793>>the nearest town is over 30 minutes by car and the only drug addicts are seasonal backpackers picking fruit and vegI refuse to believe there's a town in rural Australia that doesn't have an ice problem.
>>64447724>>64447811This, but PRE-DRILL THE FUCKING HOLES. 2x4s in the wall have a long long time to dry out and get easier to split when in your wall, especially in the desert. The coating on pic related seems to have gone to shit in this color so maybe go with the green version or another good brand that has the same color. Don't go to Tractor Supply because holy shit they want like $25-30 a box of these things last I asked. Half that place is reasonably priced, the other half like 3x what you should ever pay. It's certainly something.
>>64447724>>64447811Also security strike plate. Moar screws moar better. Still pre-drill the holes and full depth. Should know how to pre-drill but if not, basically get a drill bit about the width of the shaft of the screw or slightly smaller. That means the shaft won't spread the wood out anywhere near as much and the screw threads should be nearly the only force being put on the wood. Wax, like candle wax or beeswax can also help screw threads go in smoother. Not sure how that trick is seen when it comes to building codes.
>>64448475Yes, everyone is out to get you. Everyone wants to kill you. Everyone wants to steal your shit. Also the DEMONcrat federal agents glow in the dark in your nearest treeline. This is of course 100% objectively rational and not at all psychotically paranoid.
>>64448475>They will walk into open garages and through open doors if they see them. They can attack you if they're cornered>Not senile old menHuh?
I saw someone 30 metres away from me, so I called the cops
>>64447724There was a guy who was posting here a couple weeks ago about how to defend himself against a pimp that he had stolen an underaged prostitute from and returned to her family. He claimed the local cops wouldn't help and the LVPD, while sympathetic, couldn't do anything due to jurisdictional issues. The logical advice was "shoot him in the head and make it look like a gang feud" but apparantly he would rather deal with a pissed off criminal and his goons than LVPD shrugging and going "a known violent felon got got, such is life in the zone". It was a good LARP.
>>64448558The stories and information posted here are artistic works of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take anything posted here as fact
>>64448512>Moar screws moar better.in picrel case it might be so, but it's not always true
>>64448562Which makes it so fun to play along with. We know it's all a gag. The feds know we know they're reading our bad fanfiction.
>>64448460I was still researching optics for hunting pigs at the time, and the cameras were all ancient, so their night vision was total shit.>>64448501We did some time between 2000 and 2015, but then a group of junkies living off the dole set their house on fire while playing with fireworks and killed themselves and their friends, which caused the fire to spread and nearly set off oxygen tanks at the rear of the adjoining property. After that the police just hounded the survivors non-stop as massive safety risks until they moved away and the rest of the town aged out. Now more and more elderly neighbours are selling their properties to FIFO and remote work couples, so I expect to see it come back.
>>64448563I say it humorously but the additional screws do spread that force out over a further distance along the stud; the longer strike plate is also harder to break off and probably has more resistance to not only twisting forces (look at it flat on and rotate) but also front to back forces like if being kicked in. Not to mention the longer screws will also go into the stud immediately behind the first as IIRC they're doubled up in a doorframe for strength just like windows. You can absolutely go overboard with screws but most (not noname chinese) doorframe reinforcements shouldn't be anywhere close.
>>64448607yeah i agree completely. most shit you buy nowadays comes with the absolute shittiest screws and/or rawplugs, i immediately just toss them and use bigger/longer ones and fischer plugs only
>>64448475its nuts people dont know how dangerous tweakers can be. when they are up for more than 3 days their thoughts are very bizarre and they are very agitated. some of them take benzos to come down which are the other druggie to be afraid of. benzos make people utterly retarded and violent and not remember anything.theres an interview on 'soft white underbelly' where a meth user talks about burning down a random person's house because he was hearing voices that said to save someone inside. that's the type of shit tweakers can do. completely random arson is a tweaker thing. i saw another interview with a meth user who talked about committing arson and masturbating to the burning.most of them probably arent violent, but theres a significant amount that are.a lot of heinous murders in the US have been people completely fucked up on drugs. like that cop that got stabbed in the throat by a tweaker, the hifi murders, the 'san francisco vampire' serial killer. theres tons and tons of these happening everywhere. a lot are reported just as 'schizophrenic' because they have delusions, but its often a much simpler case of them frying their brain. their schizophrenia appeared after getting into meth and it gets classified as 'schizophrenia'.
>>64448622A lot of genuine non fuctional schizos are on the streets as well. It's been a problem since the Reagan administration shut down government run asylums. If you're already dealing with schizophrenia and other debilitating mental disorders and don't have access to treatment you'll take just about anything to try and ease the pain.
>>64447587Try anything without a gun other than self defense when in fear for your life and you'll have a college educated DA who looks like a faggot with a gas power strap on yanking the pull string start before you realized you might possibly be in trouble.
>>64448912Try anything with* not [without] this website and its [no] edit text, boomer style retardation
>>64448919No I like this version better, the DA on the prowl for anyone defending themselves with a gun, or anyone going about all other daily tasks without one.
>>64447631>Live in the middle of the desert in meth town nevada.In all likelihood, got spooked and ran off into the desert brush looking for the road again. Maybe went in the right direction, maybe not.Cops fucked off because they don't want to be fucking around in the desert brush in the middle of the night, and probably have better things to do than stepping on a rattler anyway or falling down an abandoned mineshaft or well in the dark.Write down a record of the time and day you saw the guy in case he went missing and someone actually comes looking for him.>>64447838>They routinely show up 3 hours later after a trip to dunkinNot that there aren't shitty cops anon, but this is bumfuck Nevada. There is no Dunkin or Starbucks for hours, let alone one open at night.
>>64447730>"If I catch you here again, there'll be a 6' hole waiting for you" Wtf? Why is your asshole so wide?
>>64447587You could just infra red laser systems to covertly signal you when they encroach on your territory.This can be expanded to sell as drone defense systems.
>>64447594Umm it doesn't take much balls to do that. Just a little bit of LSD or a bunch of alcohol and needing some time to recognize whether it's your own home or not...
>>64447730Based. Fuck drugoids
>>64447587Are you really this scared of a random druggie? How sheltered are you?
Get a trail cam with night vision, theyre like 40$. You can attach it to the top of a pole and use it like a night vision drone view.

>>64448558If a pimp was beefing with you over a bitch and gets killed, wouldn't that make you top 5 on the suspect list? Or does it not matter to anyone because he's a pimp?

>>64448919go back faggot
>>64447635>Head of the bed is backed up to the window like a sociopath.y tho
>>64447587>I live in a rural community, why the fuck is there some fuckhead near my property?Where do you think meth gets made?Most of my family is rural and they have to deal with crazy people bothering them all the time. I figured I'd mitigate that by living in a small town with more of a police presence but then a big city ate my small town and now I have the worst of both worlds. Go figure.
>>64447587Your mistakes:Didn't have gun on youDidn't have phone on youTook eyes off threatDidn't have GUN ON YOUCalled policeDidn't have GUN. ON. YOU.Feared, fear is the mind killer it is the little death that gets on the floor and opens the door
I love the cold. I love the night. Th quiet darkness swallows me up, makes me feel safe from all the judgmental, vicious people. One night not too long ago I was out in the wilderness, nothing for miles. Almost pitch black. A thin sliver of moon among the empty vastness. As I was walking - suddenly, out of the void - a sparkle in the distance. It was an Earth mover. My favorite kind, an excavator! Pure bliss emanated from my spirit. At that moment, all was right with the world. One small chain-link fence was all that separated me from my Precious. A sense of peace like I have never experienced flowed through me as I stood next to its majesty. Suddenly, a blinding light filled the sky and a booming voice bellowed from behind it. It commanded me to change my ways or face certain ruin. I never touched methamphetamine again after that night. Bless you, Crank Jesus.

>>64448622schizophrenia is revealed by drugs, not caused by iti would, most likely, have been declared anyway later on, at the death of a relative, after an aggression / traumatism...sometimes, maybe not in the us given your living standards and the lobbies to keep peoples high, the drugs starts because of the onset of symptoms, to evade or relief ityou can see people fried by drugs, but they are just stupid and impulsive, like alcoholics, because yes, the fried part is your brain losing more and more capacities : addiction is the disruption of the part of your brain that allow to control a behavior (often only toward a specific substance)as a side note, i have tried meth, albeit at low doses and not smoked, and i can see how your can do weird shit from it, like going weird place, behaving like you are being zapped, but absolutely not how your can want to start eating the brain of your neighbor - so mental illness amplified by drug abuse, not mental illness induced by drug abuseremember : 10% at least of the population is plagued by mental illnesst.

SORRY OP JEHOVAH SAID YOUR HOUSE WAS THE TABERNACLE WILL CHECK BACK TONIGHT A LOT OF WORK TO DO FOR THE KINGDOM
>>64447587that sounds more like the guy was either drunk or tripping which is both pretty low on the risk scale compared to other substances and probably was just confused and then left
>>64447587he's either harmless or he's going to break inthe correct response here is to tuck your AK into bed with you and just trust that you'll wake up if he knocks a window or door in
>>64447587Man, you literally just saw one guy. Could you not have the same fight or flight response as a coddled woman?
>>64450098if you put LEDs in them it burns out the LED so you need to remove the glass titty
>>64447624>Especially if you live near major urban areas (particularly ones with serious drug problems...)No need to be coy, just tell it like it is.Democrat-majority cities is the word you're looking for.
>>64450703Im the exact same way but without meth
>>64456395NTA but there's actually LEDs that are rated for enclosed fixtures (porch lights, titty lights, etc) but they still probably have reduced life in those fixtures. Real question is why they don't just put vents around the top rim of the glass.
