The Paducah Kentucky Neighbor Wars. Seriously

Somebody sent us these vids as models for how neighbors sometimes don't get along. Maybe a shared cup of tea or a Sunday brunch before church would help? Not likely.

There's some language here. Also some excellent pre-MTV cinema verite filmmaking. But, really, the guy here (the auteur) is pissed as hell and the woman ... it's hard to say what exactly her problem is (other than being odd); she does seem to have issues. But, one way or another, this doesn't seem like a relationship heading toward reconciliation gift-and-egg-nog exchanges by the Christmas tree.

This isn't funny really. We know. It's sad and ugly and trashy. And shit, you know what, it is kind of funny. It can be all that, can't it?

If ever there were a model for forced intervention counseling -- forced emigration out of a neighborhood, or the country -- this might be it. Of course, more likely they'll be given their own reality TV show...

[Note -- this vid series is really a "trilogy". But the 2nd is is so full of foul language, we've tagged it last, at the bottom, only for those who really want to "endure" the full experience.]

He's yelling at her about getting a life and not having anything better to do than take pictures; all the while he is video taping every move she makes. Am I the only one who sees the irony in this?


She was already taking the

- submitted by Anonymous on 11/15/2009

She was already taking the pictures, and in his yard, after he'd started the filming. My guess is he's preparing evidence to try and get a restraining order, or have the police do something about it. He certainly not handling it well, but I don't think it's fair to say he's 'video taping every move he makes'. I think she's certainly got something wrong with her, if she put up a fence, and then doesn't stay on her side of it.

But, we're only getting part of the story- who knows what really going on.


hmmm

- submitted by JAR on 11/16/2009

Not sure I saw 1 frame of video which would give the impression that the woman was doing anything "odd". Instead, the entire duration of these videos shows an obnoxious guy not wanting to listen to anything this woman is saying. Seems like a case of some drunk dink who's simply looking for an excuse to bitch at his neighbour to make himself feel big.

But again, we don't know the whole story so really all these videos are are a lady being yelled at by someone loud and possible drunk.

Final verdict: this guy's annoying.

It seems to me that he is the one in the wrong. Did he not hit/kick her fence in the beginning of the 3rd video? He does sound like he's slurring his words. If he doesn't want to be on her camera, he should go back in his house. Wow! Glad I don't live on their street.

She put up the fence but still does not stay on her side. That right there says she is nothing but a nosy bitch who doesnt respect a neighbors privacy. "Good fences make good neighbors" means just that. Mind your own business


glad they don't live near me

- submitted by Candy on 11/19/2009

Looks to me like he's the crazy one. First video, she is on his side of the fence, but said she was picking up limbs. I'm guessing they fell from her tree. If he's that psycho leave the things there for him to pick up.You know he's just going to throw them on to her side of the fence. They need to have someone from the county come and survey the property, stake it and put up a fence completely dividing their properties...before someone gets shot.

This WOMAN is just plain sickening, SHE is acting like an idiot. I don't blame HIM for defending his privacy, I'd do the same thing. AND BTW: WHY should he have to go inside HIS HOUSE when SHE invades HIS PRIVACY??? Its HIS PROPERTY, HE can do anything (lawfull) on it that HE wants to do. Regardless of what HE might be doing on his side of the fence, SHE is harassing HIM with all of the camera crap, and being on his side of the privacy fence. If she'd stay away and ignore HIM, most likely HE'D get let the whole thing drop. I don't see HIM as the Agressor. It would irritate the crap out of me to have a noisy neighbor documenting every little move I made. This is MY property, and God Love the person how invades my privacy as she keeps doing to HIM. HE keeps telling her to go away, but SHE ignores it. If I were HIM, I'd get a restraining order, and try to get a few days Mental evaluation of HER for HER actions. At the very least I'd press charges for Harassment...SHE is a mess... Sure am glad SHE doesn't live by us. AT no time did I see HIM on HER Property, or being the aggressor. I think SHE needs some serious mental help. What HE does on HIS property is HIS BUSINESS, and visa/versa. If He disturbs HER rest, then call the Police and let them handle it....Other wise there is nothing to much to complain about. SHE is obviously NOT AFRAID OF HIM. If he is renting, perhaps HE should move and sue her for the entire cost of the move, and any additional rent increase it would cost HIM. Or if SHE rents, she can move. Personally I think SHE should be thank full all HE does is yell, a lot of people would have become physical over the crap she is doing. Isn't there something called Aggravated Assault???? Or STALKING???? Go for it Dude, you need to get this woman and her crap stopped, the sooner the better! My Sympathy is with you.


hillbillies

- submitted by Anonymous on 11/19/2009

We were deprived of a perfectly good hillbilly sighting because this website didn't do its due dilligence in reporting this story. They needed to get the photos that the old bat took of "Bubba". One can only conjure up images of a hobbit, wearing oh too small t-shirts stretched over a more than ample gut. All topped off by a mangled toothed cranium with crooked yellow chicklets covered by a mega-mullet partially covered by a "Southern by the Grace of God" hat....


Obnoxious neighbors.

- submitted by ConnieJ on 11/19/2009

I heard in video #1 that the woman put up the fence, well inside her property line, to screen out the obnoxious man. If you look at the video, the fence corner is in front of her outbuilding, and she probably placed the fence to allow her room to cut the grass on her property that is on his side of the fence, probably because she knows he would not keep that side trimmed. I'd hate to see what the woman had to put up with when she felt compelled to go to the expense of putting up a fence for privacy. I'm just glad that I'm not cursed with such a foul-mouthed neighbor.

Angry neighbors

- submitted by Anonymous on 11/19/2009

I'm pretty sure no matter where you live when a fence is put up it has to be so many feet away from the neighobrs property. So when the lady came around the fence and said she was just picking up limbs she was trying to keep that side of the fence cleaned up knowing that it was still her property. I think they told her that when they put the fence up. He sounds unreasonable and that is most likely why the fence went up in the first place. His property is not taken care of and hers seems much better. Her picture taking seems to be just a childish return to his video which won't help things either but I suppose after years of arguing it turned to that. I'd bet he's a heavy drinker, loney, with nothing else to do but be mean to people. She's taken care of people and things all her life and now a widow and still wants things to be nice in her life. Church going, quilting, and know everyone and every thing in town. She can't get him to take care of his property or himself or to stop irritating her and it is a daily task to irritate each other. Should one of the die I think they really would miss the other because it has become something to fill a void in their lives even though they hate each other.

The fence is not installed correctly. If you put up a privacy fence the "good" side must face your neighbors property. Check code.

Seems to me that HE is the problem, not her. If she wants to take pictures in her yard who cares? He was out there egging her on. I am sure she is no saint in all of this, but when it comes to harassment, it looks like he is the guilty one, not her.

First off the guys an uneducated, white trash hillbilly. The woman needs to move or just wait till the broke dick asshole gets evicted from the house. prisons full of idiots like him that can possibly harm her. She needs to install a gate with a padlock so he can't go off on her and she won't be tempted to go round and round with him.


Giving Thanks

- submitted by Formerly From The Ozarks on 11/19/2009

Each and every day I thank my God that I married a northern lady and packed up and headed away from the beltline of the nation...along with gaining the happy little side-effects of tripling my income, finally having health insurance, and being away from the depressive pall of itenerant social nonsense such as this.

I GLADLY accept higher murder rates, outragious property taxes, the general crassness of attitudes, over that of putting up with various and assorted junkmongering alcoholic yahoos and intrusive fundamentalist busybodies. These videos only solidify the reason why there are so many gated communities down that way!

They both act like typical rednecks. They both have a complaint but neither knows how to deal with it. Instead they both are being petty. He should be happy she put the fence up, but he could complain to the city about the way it set up. She is subjecting herself to his abusive talking by intimidating him by going on his property, putting up the fence incorrectly, and just trying to aggravate him. He is a fool for not ignoring her and/or by not filing a complaint about her tresspassing, or illegal fence.

- submitted by Anonymous on 11/19/2009

Maybe if she would have consulted with her Pastor about living next to such a deplorable man, the good pastor would have suggested starting out with a friendly smile and "hello neighbor!" Obviously now, the man just wants to be left to his privacy, hense his reactions. A friendly hello is usually welcome and doesn't prompt the kind of reactions seen in this man. The woman needs to tend to her own garden and if she can't do that, at least leave his mess alone. She installed a fence and still can't stay on her side! What a control freak.


fence line?

- submitted by Florida Jim on 11/19/2009

Lets be fair. Maybe the fence is not on the property line. Maybe she owns the land on both sides of it. Maybe her front yard slope eroded on its own, or was 'helped' by the neighbor from hell. Maybe he started the filming crap or she did. We just don't have all the info. to take sides here. One thing, though, legally, if the fence is on the property line, and SHE put it up, the cross beams must be on HER side of the fence, leaving the 'finished' side on his side.

Seems two morons just happened to find themselves living next to each other. I think they both are lucky to have found each other because it seems that they thrive off each others' drama. It must give their boring lives some substance.


He's the Nut Job

- submitted by Anonymous on 11/19/2009

Many municipalities require fences to be placed inches or up to a foot from the lot line, so she's probably on her property. She had a nice fence built and has the "pretty" side of it facing into her property, just the way its supposed to be. The guy never says what the issue is with her, other than that he's a redneck fool. He's probably cooking Meth in there HAHA and doesn't want her snooping around!


If he really wants to mess

- submitted by get back at her on 11/19/2009

If he really wants to mess with jer he should put his own fence up right on his property line, that would probably leave about a 2 or 3 foot gap between them, good luck with mowing that.


He's telling HER to get a life???

- submitted by Anonymous on 11/19/2009

This man is one sick puppy. Doesn't even seem to understand that he's chastising her for doing the very thing he's doing at the time. Not only is he mentally ill, he seems to be carrying a pretty low IQ as well.

For those who said she's on his property so is at fault - there's typically an easement for fences, so the fence isn't on the property line. It's a foot or two in to her property, so she owns the land she's walking on in that first video.

I guess I am hard pressed to believe that taking pictures would create this kind of hostility. Also she apparently put up a *Spite* fence. I don*t know about KY* but in most states* the unfinished side of a fence must face the owners property* not the neighbors.


Jerk

- submitted by Kathleen on 11/19/2009

The fact that this man's voice is in each of the videos tells me that he is the catalyst in this situation. He seems to have all the neighbors upset with him because of the way he acts. He is so arrogant he thinks that taking videos will some how prove he's right, the problem is his words speak louder than the neighbor's actions. What an uneducated dumb ass!


2 sides to every story

- submitted by Cat on 11/19/2009

If the videos are watched carefully, it will be noticed that not only is the lawn cut where she was picking up limbs on "his" side of the fence, implying that the fence was inside of her property line, in addition to the placement of the outbuilding, but later in the 3rd video it looks as if someone from his side had been using her front yard to turn a vehicle around and his vehicle looks to be over the property line since the front right fender is slightly in front of the corner of her house. I think it was the woman who was gathering evidence and he was abnoxiously trying to show that he had a camera too.

Check the laws the fence is not on the property line it is inside her property maybe by 2ft or so , so the good side of the fence can face her property not his .

The man sounds like he grew up somewhere north of the Mason-Dixon Line. Rude and obnoxious. Clearly, the woman put her fence up incorrectly and should not have left a gap in the property lines. But to say the she is crazy, that is way off. Seems to me that any man that stands and screams at a woman is a jerk. She didn't say one foul thing and he's over there goading her. He came to her front lawn and was taunting her. Notice that the woman didn't back down and said nothing. Based upon this, who is the crazy one? Also, what's up with calling her an old bag, and many other mean things? You should be so lucky to live that long.

I feel blessed when I see things like this. I live on a street with 8 houses. EVERYONE gets along. We all watch out for each, yet everyone minds their business. 99% of the time it's a 2 minute conversation driveway to driveway. We get together 4th of July or New Years Eve or maybe have a swim together. The best was after Wilma. We got hid hard. Everyone just pitched in and helped everyone out. It's a good feeling. If I had one of these pains in the ass filming me, I would give them something to look at.


She needs to stay on her

- submitted by Anonymous on 11/19/2009

She needs to stay on her side of the fence. Also, in most neighborhoods the person who put the nice side facing him because: 1)a construction team did work on his yard that he didnt pay for OR 2) His property was cut short.

She's a lonely idiot thats looking for drama.
