(I asked one of the at-large city councilors if he was going to say, you know, anything, about any of this and was mocked for it).

You just need to keep an eye out. lowell's internet is like 70%fb, 20% reddit, 5% bluesky, but we have massive blindspots.

I don't call cops for literally anything so I don't really have any advice here other than don't assume cops will do anything useful for you, ever, even by accident.

This would be the first time Ive relied on the police ever were I to do it lol. I'm just tickled by the concept of using the police state against itself.

That didn't go so well for Worcester a few weeks ago.

I only know Boston, not Lowell, but I've never known cops to improve a situation. If you call the LUCE hotline they'll dispatch volunteers near you to evaluate/help ASAP. Sibling's friend did this a few days ago; they were there in 5 or 6 min.

Thank you!

I like the symmetry too lol but they're as likely to show up, realize it's ICE, and hug it out.
