It's silly to call the police over this noise we've been warned about for nearly a year.

Um... What exactly do they think the police are going to do? Issue tickets for noise? Go around with cans of bug spray? Flamethrowers? Call in the National Guard? To do what? Go around with huge flyswatters? I mean at what point do you hear cicadas and say I think we should call the police, the noise is bothering me.

They probably think the police can give the cicadas a stern warning.

This was a very horrible story. Like it was put together by a high school drop out, or a covid graduate.

The police department has put in an order for thousands of super tiny handcuffs in case the cicadas refuse to pipe down.

I live in upstate South Carolina and it's been quite here..my guess is that a few ppl may have called not understanding what these bugs sound like and somehow the media made it sound like 1/2 the state is calling 911..smh
