Here's another set of comments demonstrating that most people get pretty angry and annoyed when a neighbor allows his or her dog to bark:
The only people in the wrong are the people with the loud dogs. Shut them up

Awwww, poor ladies....now you know how others feel about your obnoxious dogs!!!!!!

Dog owners are the top of the list of people who need to spend time in a re-education camp.


Shut the dog UP. It drives people crazy and it's horrible. No one should have to get these devices especially if they file complaints. She should train or get rid of the dog. Period.

Ohhhh so it’s not ok if the noise caused by their barking dogs bugs them but it’s ok if their barking dogs bug the neighbors? My gawd how do they not see how hypocritical they are being

A little after 3 am I knocked on the neighbors door and told him as long as I was wake, he would be too.

Then muzzle your dogs from barking. It bothers people's right to peace and quiet. Look up the psychological effects of barking dogs on human health. The barking should not have to be tolerated. Quit protecting the ones in the wrong!

The real problem with 99 % of dog owners is they are selfish ppls.they don't care about anybody else but themselves and their stupid dogs.they all know their dogs are disturbing the peace of other's around them and they really enjoy it specially when neighbors start complaining that's their climax they feel like they are the center of the world.

Rat poison in minced beef, mix well then throw it over the fence, to a corner in the dead of night. The Colonels secret blend of herbs and spices hee! hee!

The last solution is the one that the dog owners deserve, but unfortunately it is not legal, but it would be true justice!

What is particularly striking about many of the posts to this thread are these collections of comments made which come from YouTube demonstrating just how fed up many people are with irresponsible dog owners. In a normal non-dysfunctional neighborhood you seldom if ever hear a barking dog. For that matter noise in general is not a problem, which is why the simple slogan "KEEP YOUR NOISE TO YOURSELF" is such perfect advice for everyone to follow. One of the more interesting ideas proposed is a noise-offender registry similar to the sex-offender registry which now exists. Most reasonable people would admit that noise offenses are a real problem whereas most sex offenses are quite simply overblown and exaggerated. This leads us to the comment listed above which I emphasized. Many people feel that some sort of incarceration would be appropriate for noise offenders and some would even go so far as to suggest that re-education camps are inadequate to deal with the problem and that something more like internment or concentration camps would be more appropriate. That might be "overkill" (so to speak), but many people feel quite strongly about the issue.

Here are some more comments to add to your list:

now if there were only a remote control barking dogs, screaming kids and loud cars.

My neighbor use to have drinking parties sometimes until 5am I called the cops a few times but then I reverted to my days of hunting. I purchased SKUNK Spray in a 3 ounce bottle and got creative with my sons paintball rifle.

watched your video and ordered the Ninja Remote. I turned the azzhole neighbors tv ON while they are sleeping and turned the volume way up. They had a party with alot of people over to watch soccer and I turned it to a Christian station and locked it.
When they mentioned all this to me I told them the same thing was happening to me and I blamed in on the govt. They moved!!

Its really terrible to have noisy neighbours. There should be tougher laws on this. You expect to hear some noise, but constant noisy neighbours its hell . I understand fully what good people have to put up with.

I wish that it worked on all stereos /radios too. That would save me from the semi-annual call to the cops.

Get one of those directional speakers and aim it directly at their bedroom window at night. Give them a dose of their own medicine!

I had some noisy neighbors who worked metal cutting and grinding machinery all night. I thought they were working on a car. I finally called the cops after not sleeping for three nights and I could hear the cop say to them, "Now what are you fellas up to?" Apparently, they were "secretly" re-plumbing the second floor of the rented house so they could grow pot to sell. If they did it during the day they could have made all the noise they wanted and not been caught.

I had neighbours that would play their instruments badly (screamo stuff,guitars, drums on six foot high amps) in the back yard about three or four times a week. They would start around lunch time and finish around 4am.
They couldn't understand why it bothered us.
That was ten years ago and I'm STILL traumatised by it. I can't bear noise of any kind from neighbours.
All i want is to live on acreage with nobody near by.
I'm normally a peaceful person but I loathe these inconsiderate dolts.

People raised in dysfunctional neighborhoods think that dysfunctional is normal. Combine being raised in a dysfunctional neighborhood with a low IQ and you get a person who refuses to be a considerate neighbor. That's why serious laws to deal with noise offenders are necessary. And yes, the idea of a noise offender registry combined with prison time, fines, and confiscation would be an excellent way of motivating recalcitrant repeat offenders to change their ways.

California resident sets up trap for would-be car thieves
If you live in a high-crime neighborhood, you might try something like this. Most of the time booby-trapping your property is considered illegal, but this is a case where I don't think you'd have any legal problems. Or at least I would hope not. It seems that nowadays often the criminals have more rights than do the victims of their crimes.

Neighbors need to be extra considerate during this time where people are being urged to stay home in order to help stop the spread of COVID-19. Remember people are more or less stuck in their homes and the noise you make may be irritating them. Don't make this situation any more stressful than it needs to be. The basic rule of neighborliness applies especially during these stressful times: KEEP YOUR NOISE TO YOURSELF!

Here's a little alert for parents, especially those with daughters. The word is that a family with some serious issues moved to Trona several months ago. Apparently the father of the family was under investigation in Kern County for molesting his daughters. He moved to Trona to put a damper on the investigation and then as a result of the covid situation has been able to remain under the radar. The case hasn't actually been dropped, but it's been sidelined at least temporarily. My understanding is that the father of the family has a job with the plant in some capacity and so he appears to be a respectable member of the community for the most part. There are several other details I could add, but suffice it to say that it would be a good idea to not allow any of your children to play at the house of this family.

That's a hot topic! A lot of talk and there's a lot more to talk about. Without giving away any details, the interesting thing is that this new guy has buddied up a bit with a prominent Trona resident who has a teenage daughter. I won't go into the implications of that, but there were rumors regarding the prominent Trona resident and his teenage daughter before the new guy even arrived on the scene and now people are talking about the possibility of a little daughter swapping going on behind the scenes. Not saying that any of this is true, but while some people are merely amused by the possibilities, others are totally disgusted!

panamint_patty: There's a lot to the story. I got the inside scoop from a former school employee. She said it's a really sad situation, but I'll try to be circumspect in what I write here since it's a delicate issue. Most people would be shocked to find out how closely this "prominent resident" is connected to the school, although he is not actually an employee. The crazy thing is that not only has he encouraged his daughter to make accusations against school staff, but he has actually told friends of his daughter that making accusations against teachers is a good way to get out of work. There is another troubling issue involving possible litigation, but I won't go into that. The bottom line is that this guy really has no business being in any way associated with the school and if the speculation about "daughter swapping" turned out to be true, I wouldn't be surprised in the least.

Wow! That's really messed up. I think I know who you all are talking about and I must admit that there's a lot of creepiness there, but incest is even worse than I thought. Why is covid stopping the cops from doing something? I mean I get it, but this is serious.

There was a similar situation involving a "prominent resident" just a few years ago. That case involved a volunteer firefighter and a girl who reportedly was thirteen at the time. The firefighter guy was married to a school board member and the girl was a friend of the guy's daughter. There was some other guy she messed around with too from what I've been told. I know the firefighter guy did some time in the slammer, but I'm not sure what happened to the girl's other customer. Not that she whored herself out or anything, but I'm sure she received some kind of compensation for her services.

It's not like the best and the brightest usually move to Trona and so it's not surprising that some reject who has an incestuous relationship with his daughters wound up in Trona. There are some respectable people still living in Trona, but their numbers are diminishing as more and more rejects move in. What respectable person would want to stay when they're surrounded by rejects?
