You’re implying the police would give enough of a fuck to do their job in the first place. I called because I saw my car was smashed into while walking my dog and the burglars were literally still there. Suspects ran when I saw them hitting another car. Cops were like ‘oh there’s not a present danger and since nobody was assaulted just file a police report’. Report was closed a day later.
What should I expect honestly. There was deadass a house here getting shot up every few months and not a damn thing happened. But it’s okay they only have the largest budget line item in the city by far and whine about it not being enough so the struggle must be real.
Nope that requires them to do the job they signed up for instead of collecting OT and extra pay as a security guard on the side. Someone on Reddit a year ago literally had camera footage with the faces of everyone who broke into their car and it wasn’t good enough. Hell, the dealership I just bought my car from had three employee cars broken into two days after mine was.
These criminals are playing with fire though in Texas with how many people own guns. Plus our penal code technically allows you to shoot to stop a crime in specific circumstances.
Give them 10 minutes, tops. (lemmy.world)
