General / Off-Topic Neighbour Paranoia?

So, my weird nextdoor neighbour just got a whole lot weirder.

When we moved in, we was made fully aware he's a "recovering" drug addict, and fully fledged alcoholic. Although, I don't think he's recovering at all. Lol
It was also obvious by how he acts. He wasn't too bad though. Had the occasional fight with his girlfriend, usually at 2am, and usually involved some hilarious insults and whatnot. It was rare enough to be entertaining.
We basically ignored him, and kept to ourselves.
Anyway, we've lived here almost a year, and no major incidents.

Until a few weeks ago. He had a massive fight with his girlfriend, and we've not seen her since.
We assumed they broke up. There was police and everything though. But he wasn't arrested.

Since then, he's been having... Err.., how can I say this without being politically incorrect/racist?... dodgy looking middle eastern friends over, all the time, day and night. (He's very English looking himself though)
He's also started loitering at the local train station. But never buys a ticket.

Then, this morning, I woke up and noticed a sign in his front garden.
I assumed it was some sort of 'for sale' sign, or garden sale, and carried on with my morning routine. People kept stopping and reading it, so I decided to pretend to do some gardening out the front and took a look.


It just said "Islam" in big, red letters. Nothing else.

I'm not religious at all, and have nothing against any other religions, but where I live, is very Christian, there are churches literally everywhere, which explains the looks on everyone's face who read it...

With everything going on, and his new odd behaviour, it was quite alarming, so I immediately reported it to MI5. Using a handy online thing... Of all things.

An old lady then came along and destroyed his sign. Lol

Am I being paranoid, or vigilant?

First muslims don't drink as it's against their religion. if they drink to get drunk they are not muslims.

if he is a darked skinned person, someone could assume he is a muslim and place the sign, then it's a case of ignorance and plain idiotic.

Just be observant, and get a big gun :D
 
Be vigilant, but do not be ignorant. Read up on who your friend is, or what he is not. Make sure you are safe. It may be hard work, and you might have to snoop just a little, but better safe than dead. Make sure the Po-lice know about your fear, suspicions and plan for your security. If something bad happens to your body, they will then understand what may have happened and may save other people from the same fate.

Have you tried speaking to him?

I am not sure speaking to "it" would be the best advice to start with....

But then again... "it" might be friendly!

He's not very chatty.
Probably because I'm not very chatty either. Lol

When we first moved in, he asked if he could borrow our internet.
I said I didn't have internet.

Which was kinda true, it was still being transferred. :p

But other than a passing nod, we don't talk.
 
UPDATE:

So, had a fun evening.
At about 6pm, he appeared from somewhere to find his sign gone.
So he sat in the middle of the road (it's a quiet street), and made a new sign, spent a good 30 minutes making a stake, hammered it in to his lawn, and attached his new hand written sign "Vote Islam" to it.

This got the attention of the pub across the road. (Yes. I live a 3 second walk from a pub, and I don't even drink!)
After a brief argument with the pub, about how inappropriate the sign is, and how he's entitled to put up a sign, he went back in his home.

Then the pub stole his sign, and hid it in the inside.

About 30 minutes later, he appeared again, and went around asking where his sign went.

Someone from the pub mentioned it's now inside the pub.
When he tried to go in and get it, the landlord told him he's a Muslim, so he can't be in a drinking establishment.

Pure. Genius. :p

It's currently 21:45. He still has no sign.

No one really knows why his sign said "Vote Islam", and why he put it up today (general election in the UK today), but as far as I know, there is no Islam party...?

The police turned up, and basically told him to stop being a pillock, but nothing else. They didn't retrieve his sign.
His girlfriend is also back.

It just gets stranger and stranger.

And that's how I entertained​ myself this evening. :p

A sign with just one word and in big red letters, is alarming; no matter what it said.

You did the right thing and hopefully so will the people you contacted. I would say; not to take things into your own hands, if things get loud or silly next door. Just call the old bill and sit well back and watch. Keep your house secure as well, there is little else you can do really, without putting yourself at risk; of the unknown.
 
Sure sounds like he has
- impaired brain function from toxic substances
- exposure to an ideology associated with recent attacks
- general hostility to the neighborhood as he's trolling everybody

Britain doesn't permit citizens to carry blades or guns generally, so when I was there I (redacted) complied strictly at all times.

A pair of Redwings with steel tips, and rubber soles is good footwear. You can't "drop" those, they dont slip easily, and a low shin or ankle kick will nuke the tibia.

I'd endeavor to avoid going to that pub, and having any but the most casual contact with him.
If you can surreptitiously get photos of his associates and their vehicles, it would help the authorities.

Well, I mean bad muslims drink.

Lived next door to a prostitute once. An honest to god, charlotte the harlot type prostitute. She had a pimp and a young protege and everything. That was a pretty colorful year of my life.
 
Start drinking and go watch "The Burbs" and then sit outside your place and enjoy the show for real...

I think he felt like he was being "watched" and then got paranoid. He realized people was staring at him because of his Muslimity. So he went bananas about it. Girlfriend probably got worried and left for a while.

Neighbors are quite silly sometimes. Making each other do crazy stuff just because of intent. We are all telepathic you know, somewhat. Think good thoughts towards him and he will come around again.

I regularly fly around middle east on various trips. It makes me laugh how all the Saudis will be getting the drink down them then the announcement will come over the tannoy that they are flying over Saudi and they'll suddenly revert to regular muslims then.

Religious me ars...
