Dadgum people with nothing better to do - someone called the police

I was showing my son some cool stuff. We built a water rocket (pressurised air into a two liter bottle inverted with a small amount of water) and made into a rocket. We were getting 150 - 200 foot launches with a release I built, along with the electric air pump.

Someone called the police.

The police were real cool, and one guy wanted the run down on how he could build his own.
 
Your neighbors must have figured you for a terrorist?

"Hey, Emma! Looky what that guy is doin'! Whaddaya mean, 'mind your own business'? Sure, he's shootin' it in the air NOW... and tomorrow when he's packed it full of some explosives, he'll be firing it right across the ground like a dang cruise missile! You could be taking Mr. Cuddles for a walk and BANG! I'm callin' the cops!"
 
My brother was using a potato launcher a few years ago and the police showed up at his house, too. Of course he was launching over the house of the guy across the street....
