Also try any of these:
the Belmont Law Center at 503-234-2694 (they are local activist lawyers that have helped many people in the past. They are located in SE Portland)

or the ACLU at 503-227-3186.

They might be able to help you. Also, if you can video tape or take pictures of any of the cars that are following you or have someone do it for you, it would be extremely helpful. Try setting up a video camera or web cam to record any strange activity.

If you are an activist or have been involved with any organizations or have been outspoken about an issue (antiwar, social justice etc.) this can happen to you. It is a tactic used by Police or even the FBI to intimidate you. If for some reason they have singled you out, they use such tactics.

I am not sure of your exact situation, but the above contacts might be able to help you or direct you to people who can.

Any numbers on the unmarked cars can also help. Usually they have numbers on the roof or behind the rear view mirror. All police cars have a number to identify them. License plates or anything. That way you can file a complaint.

My personal advise... file complaints with the police department, so at least they are documented and keep copies of them. Contact a lawyer if you know of one, or at least contact any or all of the above numbers I listed.

It sure sounds like they are trying to mess with you for some reason. Continue to be outspoken. Document as much as you can. If you can go to any local newspaper and have them write an article about your situation or even investigate it, this can help stop the intimidation.

Maybe start filling complaints about your neighbor above you??? If he is moving things all the time then you can start complaining to the manager or even call the police and file complaints. Make sure you keep the names and budge numbers of all police officers involved in filling the complaint. Time of the reports or when you call the police or make a complaint. Keep as much detailed information as you can.

Get copies of them and the notes of the officers as soon as they are available. You can go to the police department and request them. They don't cost much. There is a form you can fill out and turn it in and they will give you copies of officer notes and filed reports on your issue. That way if the police is not doing their job you have a record of it. Always have witnesses when you do any of these.

Hope this helps. Good luck and keep us updated.

Number one: take a breather.

If some agency or another really is watching you, there is not much you can do. However, chewing yourself up with anxiety and worry won't do you any good. Relax. Surveillance is a really frightening experience, but it's best to avoid caving in to their psychological environment. If you have reason to believe that you can be charged with crimes related to evidence from surveillance, or if you simply want to light a fire under their collective ass, then get a lawyer.

Regarding theft of property, keep your wallet on you, ok?

Regarding movement following you around the house, surveillance equipment is sophisticated enough that no one needs to trace your movements, let alone lug around some furniture sized piece of hardware to the exact place you happen to stand. In this case, you likely have an eccentric neighbor.

Take some time off from your normal activities. Take up an enjoyable hobby/project that has nothing to do with social issues and get your mind on something else. Just for a change in pace.

Keep this in mind, their is nothing they can do to you that you're not already doing to yourself. You are obviously not enjoying life very much, and seem preoccupied with the doings of persons you cannot identify, and whose motives seem, at the least, a bit vague.

At last, people are harassed, controlled, watched, tracked, imprisoned, tortured, and/or otherwise abused by governments all over the world at every moment of every day. For those that I know, the only solace is the relationships we have with each other. So, throughout the ordeal you're going through, remember to lean on your friends. Listen to them.

I've had similar experiences [  http://portland.indymedia.org/en/2004/09/296845.shtml ].

I've touched on this subject quite a bit on portland indymedia. You can find lots of articles about the "less lethal" technology that sounds like is being used on you on by browsing the technology pages.

It also sounds like you are being gangstalked. Eleanor White has websites dedicated to this kind of torture and harassment. Check out  link to www.multistalkervictims.org . Greg Szymanski writes a lot this kind of thing on his arcticbeacon.com website:

Government Use of Microwave Weaponry Is Zapping People To Death
Nancy Taormina, 53, of Spokane, adds her name to the growing list of people being electronically harassed. Unable to sleep, she claims to be imprisoned in her own house.

Microwave Weaponry Used on Montana Carpenter and 9/11 Researcher for 'Getting Too Close to Who Knows What'
Dan Nelson says he's not sure exactly what piece 9/11 evidence he uncovered triggered the government assaults, but says once he tried to go public, 'all hell broke loose.'

I confess I don't know quite what to do about it either, except that meditation and anything that combines physical and spiritual practice like yoga, tai chi, qi gong (anything that helps cultivate subtle energy, frankly) should be of enormous help to you. There is no question the technology exists, yet people are reluctant to believe it's actually being used covertly on private citizens. But ask yourself: why *wouldn't* the people with access to this technology experiment on private citizens, if their ultimate goal is to use it to suppress freedom of speech, assembly, etc.?

I agree the stalking could be real. And these are all good tips - especially to lean on your friends and family. Do not let yourself become isolated. Think about moving into a group home where you will have lots of help.

As you keep a log of occurences, also list the other people who are with you. Witnesses will help you in court and help you prove the reality of each event. Simply asking others, 'Did that just happen?' will go a long way in relieving your stress.

The stalking can also be 'not real'. Please consider a mental health check-up even if you believe you are sane. A close family member lost himself in exactly this kind of delusional thinking for years and no one could convince him otherwise until the day he took his own life.

What are your credentials, x? What do you do?

Quite a while ago, I suffered from the "delusion" that I was under surveillence. I believed I saw clear evidence of it. To date, I do not know whether it was real or not. I was so flipped out that I accepted heavy medication from psychiatrists who were sure I needed to be hospitalized.

After a while I calmed down. One psychiatrist told me that when I was better, I would know it was a delusion. So either I'm not better or it wasn't a delusion.

But what I wanted to share with the author is that the way I was able to return to functioning was to finally tell myself that if they were watching me, I didn't care. One psychiatrist asked me why I contined to do things that would bring attention to myself if I didn't want that attention. However, instead of quitting activism, I accepted in my heart that I may be watched and I emotionally allowed it.

I don't know if that is any help. If you are feeling like I was, I was so unnerved that my life was virtually distroyed. I felt like a mouse in someone's laboratory experiment. Unfortunately, I have come to accept that any of us may be under surveillance at all times. It's a strange thought, but it set me free.

I have limited time on the Internet and don't *always* read through the links I provide ... I just got around to reading the first couple of links from Greg Szymanski and one of the guys he talks about has some pretty weird ideas about 9-11, to say the least. So yeah, there's a lot of disinformation out there, and there are people who have serious mental problems that naturally latch onto conspiracy theories and that muddies the waters as well.

But the point I'd like to make in *my* case, is that someone who has a history of getting good grades in college, having friends and holding a steady job doesn't suddenly become unemployably schizophrenic in their thirties. Cynthia McKinney held six terms in congess. Now suddenly everyone thinks she's a kook. Dr. Steven Jones was a very well respected physics professor at BYU, and now some people want to paint him as a crank. Michael Ruppert, author of a bestselling book "Crossing the Rubicon" just went through what seems to be a mental and physical melt-down  http://fromthewilderness.com/members/110206_living_mike.php . What's the common denominator here? A willingness and a certain effectiveness towards debunking the "official story" of 9-11. Not that I place myself anywhere close to the caliber of those other people, but if you wanted to experiment on someone I'd be a pretty good guinea pig, living alone as I do and not having an established career or connections. You can judge for yourself how articulate I am on these matters:  http://fromthewilderness.com/members/110206_living_mike.php . What's the common denominator here?

If you have a political opponent, short of locking them up you'd want to destroy their credibility. Making them look crazy is one way to do it.
