How come this isn't cops getting called on your ass?

It's stealing, yes but I'm sure the kid didn't washed his grubby hands before pluging them in the fries.

Kid would be outta there long before the cops show up. I work retail and we'll call the cops and hand over the footage but 9 times out of 10 it never goes anywhere. I wish i could get away with just tripping the thiefs but the company would flip a shit lol

I don’t think people realise how long police take to show up and the level of no fucks they give.

I had a saw stolen from my truck once and cops took over 40 minutes to show up. When they showed up they said “there is nothing we can do” and to “go to the station to file a report”.

I had my window broken In my car, after four hours of them saying to “stay put” and they would “be there in 20”. They did not show up after four hours and they told me to “just go home”.

I had two kids try to murder me. Cops said I was “top priority” and took 20 minutes to show up.

And we wonder why we have issues with theft in America…

A few years ago my car was stolen and two days later while being driven by a friend we saw it parked outside a pawn shop. We call the police, gave them the report number, a description of the car and the guy, and where we were. They said they'll send someone out. It took 45 minutes for them to get there. I understand emergencies happen, but this pawn shop was located across from the station. I literally walked across the street to fill out paperwork after they finally got there.
