Lurkers
No not that kind of lurkers! I am talking about the S.O.B. (s?) that keep(s) lurking in the alley behind our place....
Whoever it is I want them dead because I'm tired of it waking 1. my housemate, and then .... 2. me.
I'm back in house hunting mode again because my housemates really are country people at heart.
The GOOD thing about the country is if someone is near your property at an un-Godly hour, you are pretty safe legally in just shooting them. All you basically have to do is post 'No Trespasing' Signs here and there and you are good to go.
In the city however someone in the alley may actually be innocent. They may be homeless, nuts or drunk. They may NOT be interested in what you have that they can lift. So you can't really do much, even calling the police may not be viable. There's always the damned slow response time. There is a REASON Americans are so gun obssesed compared to other peoples! We have a lot of random crime related to drugs.
I can't be a country person, that whole not being able to drive thing. Living a ways out is less problematic in BiH than here. BiH is crossed by a decent system of affordable bus lines and situations like Lukomir are rare actually. Here you are almost worse off because at least they WILL do an airdrop unlike here, where if you are out far enoug tough $****!
Here if you can't drive you are not even a second class citizen, you are something like fourth class. Not being able to drive has been the bane of my entire adult existance.
