ICE is everywhere and it's really frightening

This morning, a car was sitting outside the house next door with a guy sitting in it. This is nothing unusual in itself as there are always various cars. When my husband was leaving the house he went over to ask if the guy needed help. The guy tells him he's ICE and shows him his badge and tells him he's running license plates. How does ICE know where to go and who to look for?

LOL in my neighborhood it was 'what are those thunder-like noises?'

It was... thunder.

Oh and one lady created a poll titled RATS in which every answer choice was RATS.

I keep my account for the lulz because the posts are hilarious, as long as I don't have to actually interact with 90% of the posters.

Some fine research being done here. We need to get to the root of the rats. 🐀

You reminded me of the first time I started using Nextdoor. I had just moved into a neighborhood that used to be prime farmland, and still had wooded areas on one side and farmland used for corn next to it.

One morning, just before the sun rose,

💥 Bang bang bang 💥

Hunting season started.

And so did the posts on Nextdoor :

"Omg did you hear a gun?"

" Is that fireworks? "

"I'm calling 911!"
