A carload of gopniks would get my attention
I'm pretty sure if I reported a carload of gopniks to the sheriff I'd have to explain what a gopnik is.
Life as a gopnik looks hard on the knees.
A most disquieting experience.

I think that warrants the M4 Carbine with my fanny pack full of Magpul 30 rounders loaded with M885 green tips
The man was sitting on his front porch soaking up the ambience, what's next a howitzer? Sheez...

Ah yes, the good old pre GCA 1934 days. With my tremors, a sub-machine gun make things a bit easier than aiming. Spray and pray.

Something like this happened in my tiny town. One day an SUV parked next door at the Jr. High and five guys got out. They walked down the sidewalk and fanned out down the streets. I called the cops and told them what I'd seen and in short order every car on patrol was going up and down looking for them. Turned out they were canvassers but they could just as easily have been up to no good. They walked back to the car and left. I have no regrets for calling. If you see it, report it.

Why no. No the Thompson Submachine gun wasn't the most effective portable firearm in existence.
NGL though, neither was the m105

They could have been diverting attention from something else that was going on.Yesterday I assumed my position on the porch swing. Around mid afternoon Ruthie was at Wal-Mart, Logan was across town doing a large lawn job and JR was inside creating yet another art masterpiece.
I heard the sound of a kicker box thumping coming towards me. It was an old beat up light gray Honda Civic occupied by four young people from south of the border. They crept up the street at 5mph. I thought it odd.
20 minutes later they came back crawling at the same speed. My spidey sense went off. I believe they were casing the neighborhood for open garage doors, porch packages or other targets of opportunity.
I went inside and grabbed my little pocket companion, my LCP.
30 minutes later they came back. I didn't brandish but I stood up and glared at them. They sped up and took off.
Today, an hour hour after I assumed my porch station and they came back. I called the police and related my experience with a description of the car and occupants.
They thanked me for my concern and said they would notify and give the description to all their patrol officers to have them identify themselves and see what they are up to.
I got a call a little while ago from the police. They spotted them, pulled them over and asked for ID. Surprise, surprise they were here illegally.
ICE, ICE baby!
