See, this is why you never get high on your own supply.

These people are trouble! They need to move out of town. I see them out front all the time and all the random people coming in and out. Good team work MVPD!

Two 64 year olds and a 61 year old?!

OK, boomer.

So many thoughts come to mind. Such as, this is what happens when coffee just isn't enough. I feel sorry for them, meth is a hard life. Especially at that age, they probably have tried to quit before and couldn't. I wish them well and hope they are able to quit the drugs. I am also sorry for the other people whose lives are affected.

@ Thoughtful - I feel sorry for them too, to be that age, and wasting life's remaining precious time. @ Paul C - I get to say this, as a mid-septuagenarian.

I thought I read somewhere that the sergeant was helping us with our homeless outreach and reducing our RVs in our neighborhoods? But I guess drugs in houses are important too. Just home these two sixty years don’t end up on the streets in another RV. Sad.

@SAD. These people had two RVs at the house for months. I damn near hit one because it took up the road. The house is disgusting out front. I wish I didn’t need to see it every day.

Just *knew* putting that Breaking Bad show on the air would lead to this.

I glad Something is getting done about this resident. Unfortunately this is not really news. We’ve been watching and complaint about this location for years. We’ve watch a couple generations of cops arrest people at this house. Nothing seems to work. I can not agree with the article quote and it doesn’t sound genuine... removal of dangerous substances from the streets of Mountain View.. They may have grabbed a small amount of drugs but the person shown in the photo was back just the other evening. @Sad - I don’t know what outreach means but it wish someone would get code enforcement, building officials, city council members and the fire department involved and work together to resolve this problem on Church. Simple law enforcement actions just don’t have any impact because drugs are practically legal. This may be a rant but it is called frustration.

MVPD thanks for the effort but it is only a temporary fix.

The whole world is NOW watching, all the time, with photos likely.
I'd think about moving, Meth-Man.

@ We know where you live.

That's just mean spirited. They could quit the meth and be good neighbors, you never know. You are not even from their neighborhood. Keep your nose clean and mind your own neighborhood.
