Stupid things you saw on Nextdoor

[Gman]

Like clockwork, some idiot posted up they heard "gunshots" at 8:45pm. I did find out I have some pretty funny neighbors.

"Sounded like an Uzi. Do you think it was an Uzi?"

"Have you ever actually heard a gunshot? Fireworks sound exactly nothing like a gunshot. This is Highlands Ranch, not Compton."

"Sounded like an Uzi?"

"Definitely a friggen Uzi near 4th of July. Oh lord."

"I know the Highlands Ranch crips and the Lone Tree bloods have been fighting over turf. It's probably them. Hard to tell."

"Put your phone down, go outside, and enjoy the show."

"Hide your wife, hide your kids, the Ranch is getting shot up!!"

"Own a calendar???"

"Yeah, definitely an Uzi."

"Ah, thank you. It had been like 4 days without a 'anyone else hear gun shots?!' post. I'm so glad we got at least one more in before the 4th. Happy birthday America!"

"Totally a fire fight...thought I even caught a M2 and Mk19 volley of fire."

"I heard a bomb go off! But I'm pretty sure it was my wife exploding after I told her the salad tastes horrible. If I were you I would hide behind your Prius, I heard the batteries are eco friendly."

"I heard a cruise missile fly overhead but no gunshots."

Now that's damm funny!

I have managed to keep my mouth shut on Nextdoor so far, but it is very hard. Boulder libs aren't quite sure what to do when somebody takes a dump in their echo chamber

Must be an echo in here.

Gman — I keep hearing gunshots, sounds like an Uzi, should I call the police?

911, ASAP.

Neighbors really stepped up their game this year. Much more enthusiastic this year.

...although whoever that was that was still going at 12:30am needs to chill.

It was ~1:00AM here on the east side. I purposefully stayed up late to bask in the freedom (no point in trying to sleep) and no kids to worry about this year.

Intermittent rain/sprinkling helped with the fire risk. It was a good night to party. I'm sure I'll hear leftover tonight!

Not on NextDoor, but have been watching the new and actually read yesterday's Gazette (newspaper) where they indicated "authorities will really be stepping up enforcement of the fireworks ban this year".

Not really sure what/how they are enforcing the ban as I sit on my back porch while typing this it sounds like the entire city of Colo Spr is under a Red Dawn attack.

"Got myself a Uzi and brother a nine!"

[CS1983]

I think my entire neighborhood was launching bottle rockets from 30 round mags with binary triggers and bumpstocks -- or whatever the fireworks equivalent is.

It's still going.

I think most of the "violators" have DV plates and dogs, too.

[OtterbatHellcat]

Yeah, there are some around here that are also not letting it go yet, even at this hour.
