Yeah, when it has a statistically significant chance of ending up in your death, they do.
I dont know how you can recognize the problem with America, and still have the audacity to say such a bullshit line.
Its called common fucking sense. You know how loud you have your music, and you have some basic fucking decency to go "Oh shit" and turn it down. You are more than capable of enjoying music, in your own home, without bothering other people. I do it all the time. I dont need anyone to come banging on my door because I have consideration for them so they never have to.
Because you're exaggerating the issue, and the issue with Americans is exaggerating the risks of everything to justify having guns and invading other countries, which actually increase the problems you claim to try and avoid.
You don't know how loud it is. Having seen what sort of buildings you guys have, it really doesn't need to be loud to be audible to another apartment. Not everyone is bothered as easily as others. That's why it's important to let the people know.
An anonymous letter in this specific instance would definitely be the first choice. Honestly, what the hell is hacking the BT gonna do? Make them buy a new, possibly even louder speaker? How would they know it doesn't work because someone is annoyed at the level of noise in the morning?
Oh and you also read minds, so that you know for a fact that no-one is bothered by you clomping around to music they might hate, but they're not coming to say anything, because they think there's a "statistically significant" chance of getting murdered for doing it?
Ah yes, So you hate Americans so you are just going to be a cunt to anything and anyone related to America, and to justify that you are just going to straight up reply to your own imaginary conversations to justify it, since nothing I actually said would give you ground to say this shit.
Not even worth replying to the rest of your stupidity when your agenda is this obvious
Why would you say I "hate Americans"?
You live in a country that has a lot of issues and crime, yes, but as I always keep hearing in gun debates, "it's not most of the country". So are you really saying America is in such a state that trying to talk to a neighbour is too dangerous for anyone? That's horrible. I would help if I could. Which is for instance why I very often argue for reasonable gun control which would help with your situation.
And again, doesn't change that an anonymous letter informing someone that their morning music seems loud will work better than disconnecting a speaker.
The latter will only confuse the person who will fix the speaker connection or get a new one.
Dude, as an American it just sounds like you have an anti-everyone else hate and fear boner because you're antisocial, scared, and paranoid. The other dude is absolutely right that there are more civil and diplomatic ways that will be much more effective than not. At my girlfriend's last apartment there was a dude who lived below her her apartment who would occasionally play music really really loud. I had seen him openly carrying his pistol in the building. I went down there and knocked, and when he opened the door his gun was hip holstered and ready to be drawn. I just asked if he could turn down the music a bit as we were trying to sleep and he apologized and all was good. He turned down the music and there was no confrontation; he may like his music loud (as do I sometimes, my hearing can be bad at times) but sometimes we need a reminder to be considerate of others. You can argue we shouldn't need that reminder, but we're all human and to be human is to be fallible. At the end of the day, communication will always be the quickest way to solve a conflict or issue. It is only not an option when one or more sides refuses to cooperate in communication. But that's honestly not as common as you'd think and it doesn't help you nor anyone else if you immediately close that avenue of resolution.
