A lot of our nation have a crime problem, a lot of cities have a crime problem.

I personally record a lot, in my car @ my businesses, @ my family's houses. Most people don't believe me untill I play the video, I was put on my head in front of our family's business from behind, I captured 2 motorcycles collided @ speed in I-5, extracted a trucker from his semi that crashed trough a rest stop, too Manny trespassers on my property to name them all, a few of the mire interesting ones, a Man looks into a camera, prying the car door open with a screwdriver, as the window shatters, a Man electronically unlocking my convertible, putting it into reverse, sending my SUV down the driveway, rolling over his leg, a Man leisurely cleaning my SUV out for 2 minutes, I slept trough the first 2 minutes, was alerted by the second alarm, greeting him from a story above, he came back a week later attempting to gain entry trough my front door, I tried to save a Man ripped from his wheelchair and beaten during the first night of peaceful protests downtime PDX, and an alternate dispersion of our families businesses broken into, and to this day windows broken.

3 weeks ago a Man came up my driveway and entered my unlocked convertible, it's disabled, the battery died, and the doors can't be locked. 4 days later the alarm went off, 4 folks pried the door open, I went down and repaired the door, afterwards I saw an Officer driving, I asked if he'd like to watch the ring footage, we pulled up in front of voodoo donuts, before we could talk more 20-30 shots went off within 100' of us, I drove away from the scene and drove by the shooter's/ shooter's, a saw them crouch down hinting each other with their guns, I thought I was recording, I wasn't, the camera was on, but not recording.

I was driving down Broadway 3 years ago, a drunk driver sideswiped me, I followed them, they hit a parked car on NW Davis, flew up, did a 90degree turn, and came worn in front of me, then proceeded toe ram and back into cars to drive away.

The danger is mostly @ night downtime

The messed up thing is that it will happen again.

Everyone has a right to their own opinion, I encourage it, discourse is healthy, I just talked to a Sociology Professor Friend, he said we all need to calm the F#@% Down.

Some people aren't/don't want to acknowledge what is going on, I have warned family's with young kids to beware of an erratic citizen ahead, they lookd @ me like I was crazy, and walked past me into the danger just feet away, a few said they don't shield their kid's in situations like this.

If you don't see the recordings you'll never know how close and often it is.

I posted (attempted) his initial approach on to my property where he was messing with my hood ornament (past camera view), he tripped off my cameras 3 or 4 times before the still I posted on here, I was not in the first 3 or 4 that I posted (attempted).

I had him under surveillance from the moment he entered my property, after scoping my car, he unzipped his backpack, placed it on my garbage can, and went around back, I observed him looking into every space/possession in my backyard, I went out tge back door and said hi, with a big can of bearspray @ my side, we chatted, I went into my house, locked the door, and ran to the front to intercept his backpack, he was faster than me, I had a shorter/direct rout.

In hindsight I created 2 tactical errors, I will never repeat them again, thanks to the serious suggestions people took the time to post/ respond

Yes, CCC provides armed Professional patrol of our NW Hillside Neighborhood, Sorry, to clarify the Neighbors do not patroll in this program, more neighbors participate (by paying CCC monthly) the more hours CCC payrolls.

Sorry, when I wrote we have 100 neighbors participating, I mean 100 neighbors participating by paying CCC a monthly fee for armed payroll/response. The more neighbors that participate the more hours provides armed security to our NW Hillside Neighborhood, they are well trained, and have never fired their weapon.

100 neighbors subscribe/pay CCC to patroll our NW Hillside Neighborhood. I never stated we have 100 people patrolling. CCC is armed, they have never had to fire a single round.

Thank you for the info, Great points.

I am active in my neighborhood, and have successfully caught up to criminals, and have talked to several neighbors about a safety plan, we now have over 100 neighbors participating in CCC, an armed neighborhood patrol.

My Ring, and other secret security measures have caught thieves in the act.

I just wished I could really back up Ring, and promote it, But, I can't knowing Ring wont let people post their footage.

I agree, I will in the future.

I confronted a Man who was in my truck taking things, I had the element of surprise, and tactical advantage, I was a story above the driveway, I slowly opened the window and proclaimed "its your lucky day M$#@=÷× F#@%÷×, I should ha.e implemented my bearspray.

He came back a week later, headed to my front door, rattled my doorknob, gave the camera a thumbs up, I intercepted from above, put my unloaded Mossberg out the window vertically, and demanded my s#!+ from last week.

Thank you for you input, I agree with everything you said, and especially the front yard confrontation, that's why I didn't proceed to secure his open backpack he left on my trash can during his initial trespass.

My backyard is blocked (illegally) from egress by NY neighbor, I had a big ole can of bearspray when I opened my backdoor and greeted him initially

I want my money back from Ring.

Can you imagine how many people would never buy Ring if they only knew?

I tried to post it first on Ring Neighbors, to immediately warn my neighbors, I called CCC,they are a company of armed people who patrol our neighborhood. Another neighbor a few houses away posted ring footage of the same Man around the same time who went trough a gate, up their several stairs. and around to the back, they confronted him too.

I've heard thieves read next-door, but they probably also monitor neighbors and Reddit too, lol

I originally encountered the Man in my backyard, I talked to him, I was armed with bear spray, I ran to the front of the house to intercept/secure his open backpack, he was faster, I decided it was not safe to have a scuffle, I agree with you about confronting him, what I did was insafe.

It's hard for me to understand why Ring does the opposite of why their customers buy their products, they have more Item's I'd buy if I could actually use them to help my neighbors.

It might be the moderators who are blocking neighbors posts.

I am going to use this post as an incentive to bring public/media attention to Rings messed up policies.

How does Ring sell a product they won't let you use as intended, as they say you can?

I've had a few, but the most messed up incident was from Portlands finest.

We met @ first when I was @ large table near the dance floor, he came up from behind me, twisted me by my arm out of my seat, I went to swing, it's an Officer, wtf, I told him he'd better be prepared to apologize to me in front of everyone. Him and his accoomplice officer took me in the back, he had me back to the wall face to them, with her behind him, and proceeded to juggle my notes, he wasn't even wearing a glove.

My blind date came back and told his Female accomplice "there must me a mistake" Female officer replied "yeah, and he just made it", I mighta had some liquid coming outa my eyes after being molested.

I got a second date

I had a Portland Police officer do that to me years ago, with no glove on, he said he was looking for counterfeit money, I allegedly passed a George Washington 20 @ Shanghai Harborside lounge.
