It sounds like you're dealing with a biker gang. If that's the case then you're not going to be able to reason with them. They're further entrenched in their lifestyle than in regular society. I hate to suggest narcing, but next time you call the cops, let them know that they're running gang activities out of the house. Cops care more about gangs than they do noise complaints. If you're in a really bad neighborhood then they still might not do anything about it, but they're more likely to mobilize if they think that there's the possibility of a big bust. Be careful though, if the gang suspects you ratted on them, it can be a hard time for you.
Seems like a bit of a leap. They're probably just regular ol' white trash.
Doesn't seem like a leap at all to me. What they described is a gang flop house, not some po-dunk family. It should be fairly easy to tell the difference though. Biker gangs typically wear patches on their jackets indicating their membership.
OP never said that they're white, and there are many different ethnicities that ride Harleys.
Huh. Here I thought it was trashy old white guys and their fans.
The Mongols are a huge gang and they're predominantly Hispanic. There are plenty of African American motorcycle clubs that ride Harleys on the West Coast.
Also when the cops find out you lied about gang activity, to manipulate them into moving against non gang members, you’re fucked.
