They came back yesterday after a brief detente Archived Message Posted by Sounder on March 27, 2025, 13:21:41, in reply to "have the troublesome middle schoolers deal with them*" and we finally called the cops last night after they pounded on a side window at 7 pm. We filed a police report and asked for an officer to come in person. The officer didn't show up until after midnight and knocked on the door when we were already in bed.
