Any one here who lives in north Phoenix is seeing this or is hiding their head in the sand. All the loser homeless druggies are taking over our streets. I patrol my street at night usually 5-10 times with my dog but I can't be up all night.
We have panhandlers on the freeway exits and people are giving them money, hell I even saw one guy with a sign that said my drug dealer makes me stand here and one who is too honest to steal and too ugly to prostitute. Stop giving them anything, no water, no food and especially no money. If they get nothing they move on. When you see them call the police. If you see them behind a shopping center call the police. If you see them camping cal the police.
Next is too lock your crap up, I ran off two guys yesterday at 4:25am who were breaking into neighbors unlocked car. Lock you car and they stay out as it is more serious of a crime if the door was locked and you admit it was unlocked. Stop leaving your garage door openers in your car, they are getting into the garage and since it was in the unlocked car mush less of a issue if they are caught. Keep your damn garage doors closed at all times, you can walk in your house to take a leak and come out to several hundred bucks worth of stuff missing.
Next is get a locking mail box and empty it every day, they have broken into two locked boxes this week so far and as more locked boxes are added they will hit those. It is important they get nothing for their efforts, if they hit 200 mail boxes a night and come up empty they move on after a few weeks. Every night they are hitting my street, sometimes I catch them and make them leave but some nights I don't. I mean how hard is it to empty your mailbox every day? Stop receiving financial statements and if you need a new bank card have it delivered to the bank
Package deliveries. They are following Fedex, UPS, Amazon and so on. I have stopped several of them and even took packages away from one guy. If you order something send it to your office, have it held at a UPS, Fedex office, Walgreens or at a Amazon drop box. If you are home grab it the second it is delivered. We can't let these people have one package they can trade for drugs.
Get a alarm, if you don't have one have a friend who does order signs and window stickers for you, not a single home on my street that has a alarm sign has ever been robbed, several of the houses that don't have signs have been robbed multiple times. One house without has been hit 10 times and another 5 times.
BOB's BOB"s are burglars on bikes as we call them. If you see a 20-30 whatever color male with a hat, a backpack, gloves and a bmx bike 99 times out of a hundred they are a BOB or a spotter for another one on bike or in a car. I have gotten in the faces of hundreds of these pieces of crap and never have been challenged by them, they are almost all felons with records and just leave. If you see them during the day watch them and photograph them if you can. If you see them at night put a beam of light on the cockroach and watch him scatter. There are also guys on foot with backpacks that look nirmal from a distance but hen you get closer you can tell they are a user.
When you see BOB's if you can follow them from a distance see which house they go to, another BOB or better yet their drug dealer lives there. Get the address and call it in as a possible drug house. I have turned in several in my area that have all been shut down. Some times it takes a while, sometimes it can take a year or more for police to do something but the more calls they have on a location where these people hang out the sooner they do something. There is most of the times a lot of cars coming and going.
Parkers. They usually park at ends of streets in the dark at night but sometimes they do it during the day. They are either tapping into someones wifi and downloading God knows what, doing drugs or my favorite they have a hooker. I have ran off hundreds of them with only one who ever challenged me until he saw the dog and the gun then it was all cool and he left. They usually like to do drugs close to where they get them and like to hide while they get high, I have seen cars idle for 6-8 hour sin one spot with engine running, I run off every one of them by either commanding the dog to bark non stop or I get in my truck, pull up behind them flashing my lights and honking the horn, they do not like the attention and leave, most never return.
More people harassing these people will make them go somewhere else. Stop being nice to them and stop feeding them. If you see a man on a childs bike follow them and make it obvious and don't talk to them, they will think you are a undercover and leave the area. If you see them sitting run them off, they are probably spotting.
We need to take our streets back from them, if we don't do it now it is only going to get worse, there are just not enough cops to go around and it will be years before there are.

) that folks feel they are driving off the edge of the earth when only half way down my dirt road, while coming to buy critters. So, I don't have a homeless/vagrant problem here.
