Fuck cops. Particularly, fuck the cops in my city (in the US). But who do I call if I am in a situation where I’m not in danger, but I can’t deal with it myself either. My apartment complex is full of fucking douchebags that blast music all through the night and shout all through the night. I’ve talked to security at my apartment and they try their best to handle it but there’s only one guy and he can’t stop 20 college douches from doing what they want. What I don’t want to do is call the police because even if they make the noise issues go away, somebody is liable to get hurt… but what other options are there? I’m sure the apartment will send these rich pricks some sort of fine in a couple days but it doesn’t stop them from doing it over and over. I can’t go anywhere else and I can’t sleep with this shit always going on
You can take them to small claims for nuisance. You represent yourself, so make a recording of the noise, and/or get some depositions from other neighbors.
Some states require you to file a complaint with the police first. Don't worry, police almost never investigate noise complaints.
I hate to say it, but might makes right in situations like this. If you're outnumbered, you're either going to have to get used to it or move.
If you try to do something, the retaliation could be a lot worse than sleepless nights. A lot of people are so shitty and will double down if they have the advantage, and they'll call you a killjoy while keying your car, stealing your packages, etc just because it's "funny"
