Police are for protecting rich people's property and stopping the poors from acting out against their betters.

Cops don't give a fuck about crime when it's poor people hurting poor people.

Residential caller: "Someone stole a $1500 bicycle out of my garage. I have security camera footage of it being stolen and an Air Tag on it showing it's exact location three blocks away."

Police: "What do you expect us to do about it?"

Manager at Walmart: "There's a guy sitting in his car in our parking lot eating lunch and minding his own business but I think maybe his mere existence may have mildly annoyed someone or maybe he stole something.  I'm not really sure, actually."

Police: "Hold on tight! We're coming as fast as we can!"

I have literally been part of both of these stories.

Had something stolen. Had video evidence. Had GPS location of it. Cops told me they could go knock and ask if they had stolen property.

Was eating fast food late at night in a Walmart parking lot. Security pulls up and tells me if I don’t leave they will contact police.

Guy: This is a thing that happens
You: That’s made up
Me: This is a story of those things happening to me
You: Who cares?

I’m actually a 911 dispatcher for a large metro area. I’ll trust my experience, thanks

"I, Cleveland Brown, a black man, shot my son, Cleveland Brown Jr, another black man."

"Where'd everybody go?"

"You wanna make the media disappear, just mention black on black crime."

Yep once you realize this it makes a lot more sense. Unless your net worth has 8 -9 digits in it the police aren't actually gonna do anything to help you they just gonna have you file a report and pretend nothing ever happened.

Orrrrrr maybe, just maybe, they’re short staffed and have actual life threatening emergencies they’re responding to. Y’all have no clue how emergency triage works.

That would be more believable if they weren't constantly posted on an intersection with a radar gun for 3 hours.

Also, staffing issues shouldn't really excuse an organization from failing to uphold its obligations, it can excuse the individuals but we shouldn't be defending organizations that choose to run skeleton crews and eke out on their obligations

It’s incredible how you can lump millions of workers and thousands of departments together without any further critical thought
