NIMBY
Sometimes I can understand people who have a "Not In My
Back Yard" attitude......In all fairness there are certain 'things'
which should not be build in certain areas.....
But I cannot understand people with the 'opposite' point of
view......These are the people who complain about a problem
with a certain 'thing' after they move in right next to it.....
Here in Jabunyaville there are three examples of complaint.....
An outdoor gun club with a gun range, a rock quarry, and a
small stock car race track.......
People buy a house knowing full well what is nearby
and then complain about the noise or other problems....
Why in 'heck' did they move next to it in the first place?
If they were deceived, it was due to the lack of information
provided by the real estate agent or their own lack of research.....
In the case of the race track.....It was built in the middle of
no where in 1947......Now 'no where' is full of houses built since
then with people, living in them, that complain about its
existence......How stupid can some people be?........It is like
those people who buy a house on the edge of a golf course,
because they golf, and then complain about broken windows
caused by poor golfers off the 7th tee.......Pumps
