My first interaction with Next-door in Cupertino:
Neighbor: "There is a suspicious man walking around the neighborhood!!" (includes blurry picture)
Me: "What makes his suspicious?"
N: "He's black and wearing a hoodie! We don't have people like that around here"
M: "Being black doesn't make him suspicious. Would you say a white man in a hoodie is suspicious? Because we don't have a lot of those around here either"

Then I muted the thread.
