I live in a college neigborhood. I have lots of drunks smashing stuff and stealing things in my yard. My idea is to mount digital camaras on my turff. Many people stop to piss in my yard due to darkness provided and the location of my house (3 blocks) from the watering holes. My idea is to create a web site and post the pics of what happens in my yard. Legal?
Guaranteed that they will end up peeing over themselves and unlikely to return.
Alternatively have a garden hose ready and when they start peeing put the hose on and soak the bstards.

However, I would also recommend keeping a timed/dated log, supported by the photos, and present the dossier to the powers that be (police and local authority). And don't let up providing this evidence, and hassling them, until they do something.

Security lights will generally stop people peeing, set up your security cameras to go on at the same time and you'll have any evidence if they try to do anything else...

Why can't you take a picy of anyone, anywhere and post it? Paparazzi do it all the time and they even lie about the person in the picy. You have no expectation of privacy out in the public especially when you're draining dragon in someone's back yard.That's Granny's legal position and i'm sticking to it.

That draining person has given up his right to privacy and may be picy'd And posted for ever and ever, or until such time that Granny gets bored of the above aforementioned thingy. FACT! If you expose your toot-a-loo in front of Granny you certainly have no expectation of privacy. You will, at very least, be posted on my wall.
Celebrities are different than normal people in this respect beacause they are public figures.

The solution came in the form of broken milk bottles melded to the top of the wall, and (if my memory on this is correct) the thought of using live stripped metal wires(!), plugged into the mains electricity, ready for the first attempt at a splash. The latter an attempt that was abandoned.
