Help: Crazy Neighbors

OK, I am freaking out because I was actually having a nice day today. Heaven forbid I actually try and relax and have a nice day. My kids are out in my front yard riding their bikes on the private drive. The Dog goes crazy when she is locked up and the kids are playing. I, by the way, after having a neighbor show up at my door at 1:30 in the morning when Nate is out of town to threaten me because she is barking, just went out today and bought a park collar. Now she discovers the neighbors have chickens. These are not in a pen chickens, no these are free-range chickens that are always coming in my yard, etc. So the dog, being a dog, chases said chickens and as I yell to get her back and throw her in the house the angry, scary, long haired pot smoking son starts yelling that two chickens are missing and one is badly injured. My kids are scared, he starts threatening to shoot the dog, which increases the fear factor. So now we are all hiding in our house with the doors locked and the dog inside. So much for me "good day".
