I live on several acres. My next door neighbor is a half a block away. She is the local "chief of police" of everything she doesn't like. There are 17 families on our mile long, dead end road and all live on acreage. I have had to put up with this "chief" for 47 years. I tried to ignore it all but finally the cork blew and I told her off in spades. I have had peace for 20 years.
She had sued, called the police or animal control, took out injunctions and had arrested 3 neighbors. Not me. I told her if she ever bothered me again I would beat the h--- out of her and bring my four sons to help me. It worked.
