I'm a black doctor. My neighbors called the cops on me for listening to Biggie.

60. The problem here was calling the cops instead of talking to the neighbor

I've had this happen several times. Sometimes people don't realize they are bothering neighbors or it doesn't sound very loud but the vibrations shake the wall when there's a lot of bass and a subwoofer. I've politely asked neighbors to turn it down, and neighbors have politely asked me to turn it down. It's a very normal part of life and nobody needs to involve police.

It was a big problem when I had deaf neighbors above me who couldn't hear it but they loved feeling the vibrations. I had to write them a note and they agreed to turn it down.

It's also interesting to see which DUers have lived in apartments vs houses. People are much closer together in big liberal cities. It takes a certain type of person and attitude to handle this effectively.
