Hi Juan..
I am writing to tell you that I think it is great that you have come up with this idea of letting the people of Palo Del Amo Woods express their opinions in a way that will get something done and hopeful get these idiots out of our neighborhood. Although I would like to remain anonymous Id like to say that I am a resident of PDAW and am a 20 year old female.. with this said having these people coming in and out of the house makes me feel very unsafe and uncomfortable with living here. I feel as if I cannot go to my car (whether it be parked in the driveway or on the street) without feeling like i am being looked at and watched. It may be somewhat of a paranoia but I do not like going out of the house with shorts on, tank tops, dresses or anything that may draw attention to myself for people that live to see and potentially do something to. I am constantly looking out the window seeing cars come and go, trash being thrown into the street, smoke coming from the backyard, hearing the screams of the dogs that stay there at night, cussing and screaming and yelling, transient looking people walking all over the neighborhood, constant watching of our homes, and even the man in the blue saturn (whom is absolutely disgusting & from what i have seen a worthless piece of -) saying things to women when they get out of their casr, harassing them! Baskets from local stores thrown at random places in the community, going through our trash cans, parking cars in front of our homes (something i personally hate) putting us out of the way when we have to find other places to park (which is absolutely ridiculous when we pay to live here and they DONT!). The other thing i dont understand is why the police get called out here.. arrest these idiots.. and then let them go after a few minutes. i just dont get why they do that. Isn't there something that can get these people gone???? aside from paying taxes or whatever else they are trying to use. The fact that they are disrupting our community, wasting the money WE pay through taxes to have the police come out, doing drugs, animal cruelty and prostitution should be enough...shouldn't it??? I just dont see why it has taken so long to get these people out of the neighborhood. are the police even doing there jobs! it just gets me so upset that people like them can live here perfectly fine and have us, the residents, who actually pay the bills on constant alert and worry from the actions they do. How can they live there while Ben is in jail???? He killed a dog with a hammer!??? does that not scream for help.. shouldn't they all be put out because of this. It really doesn't seem that Ben is the bad person in all of this.. it is the low lifes that he puts up with. If he or any of those other people ever approached me.. i will honestly think about severely hurting them. Every night around 10:00/10:30 or so i hear a terrible scream from the dogs in the back yard..its terrible. So basically to wrap this up.. How can we get these people out of here?!! quick! I am very willing to help and to get these people out. I am here mostly all hours throughout the day since i work from home and i will take pictures...video...call the police every time i hear the even slightest thing. These people are ruining our lives.. there are children, young women and the elderly that live in this family oriented community. They do not belong!!!!!!!!!!!! I absolutely detest these people (Esp. the man in the blue car) and the many people that come through the neighborhood. Together we can get these drug addicts out.. and finally be at PEACE! Feel free to email me anytime.. i will also keep you posted with daily events that i hear and see over the next few weeks regarding ben and his friends. thankyou again for starting this!
best.
