It is 1:34am and there is a helecopter hovering over my house.

[SmileyRose]

for the last 5 or 6 minutes.

In the dark? They don't have a search light on. My street is not loaded with cops.

Is it creeping me out.

[cutlassmama]

1. i'd be freaking out too. Good luck

[SmileyRose]

6. 7 minutes later and they are still there

Dang it - left my tin foil hat in the other room. Maybe I should go out in the front yard and show them my bed head. That'll scare um off.

I didn't even know a chopper could just sit in one spot for that long.

2. Is the helicopter black?

:tinfoilhat:

12. It is at night.

3. Happened to me/my street some months ago.

Never figured out why.
Good luck.

4. Drug helicopter

Searching your neighborhood for heat lamps for hydroponic gardening with an infrared detector. :evilgrin:

5. Are you smoking a joint?

That's probably why.


We may be experiencing budget cuts and austerity measures, but we can still fund helicopters and swat teams at $1 Million an hour to bust pot smokers.

8. LOL

I tried smoking pot once but I couldn't figure out how to get the Revereware to light up. :+

[Skip Intro]

14. Mmmmmm...joint...nt

[blkmusclmachine]

7. That's what you get, posting to DU and all..

:evilgrin:

[SmileyRose]

9. IT JUST LEFT !!! 17 minutes!

My husband said they were probably watching the newlyweds next door getting their freak on.

[Warren DeMontague]

15. Your tax dollars at work nt

[Warpy]

10. It's Saturday night, nearly midnight

and there isn't one over my house. Now that's something different.

[Mr Deltoid]

11. Maybe they think you are a Medical Marijuana patient

[PurityOfEssence]

13. You are guilty, it's all your fault, and you deserve it

Go to bed.

[chillspike]

16. It was probably a news helicopter

Is there a major road near you? After the hurricane on the east coast there was one hovering nearby my house because route 9 was flooded in a section. Probably a news traffic heli. Or a police heli monitoring the end of a police chase or accident.

17. if you think they're looking for IR sources cultivating drugs, time to fire up the grill! n/t

n/t

18. As long as your name is not Bin Laden.......

....you are probably okay. With a little luck they only wreck your house and hold you at gunpoint for a few hours. Happens all the time. No biggie.

19. Hope the OP doesn't have any dogs.
