Earplugs

At some point earlier today I discovered that a bunch of foam earplugs had been stolen from my bedroom drawer; I had bought a pack of 20 or so months ago and still had many left over as I haven't been using them. I keep them in the same drawer as my sleep eye mask and some other stuff so I’m often going in the drawer, and frequently have to tamp the bag down to slide the drawer back in. I am therefore always reminded of how full the bag is as I have to tamp it down to close the drawer. I therefore noticed almost immediately when I opened the drawer to discover there were only four sets left in the bag, meaning I didn't have to tamp it down at all. This means at some point someone came in to take the rest of them. It isn’t the monetary value as you could get them cheap on eBay; as usual it’s the abusive violation of privacy. It also a reminder that the people speaking to me remotely likely have someone on the ground in the nearby vicinity, whom they work with to do things like that, as the people speaking to me remotely know what I’m doing and where I am at any given moment, so they can be sure whomever is coming in won't be caught. I live in a cul de sac and I know not everyone is involved with it, just a rotten few spoiling the drive for everyone else. However people couldn’t come in my house without a bit of noise, and I think some people around here know more than they’re letting on. I speculate that it’s because the same people could come into their flats too if they got on the wrong side of them. We shouldn’t have to live in fear because the police won’t crack down on a criminal group. I got on my PA speaker system in the early evening, around 8pm, and spoke to the drive, told them about the theft, told them how it made me feel, told them whoever is responsible for it is deteriorating the drive with behaviour you’d more likely find on a council estate, and sabotaging our efforts to live like civilised people and appear to others to be civilised people. All I can do is try to make people here see that how we live here depends on us, so we need to begin to stand up to these people, as the police are failing to help with them, and they’re really changing the quality of the environment in a way that is detrimental to everyone who lives here. I further added that the comments they were making in light of my discovery, just before I got on the PA speaker system in fact – ‘we’re hateful to you’, ‘we’re how you must feel’, are disgusting moreover because they seem to be getting off not only on the crimes but also on the victim's reaction to the crimes, like perverts or rapists enjoying their victims pain and fear, and so they were trying to draw more of a response from me than I was providing so they could savour the reaction to their abuse, which is an utterly disgusting thing to do, or even want to do, to anyone. I don’t know who would have heard me but I said what I had to say and got off the PA system.
