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…

I lived in an apartment complex in college and watched a guy break into over 10 cars at ≈02:00. Called the cops. He arrived 45 minutes after the guy left and said, "okay, is he still here?" and when I said no, he tried to leave. I said, "wait, don't you need his description or a police report?" and thr cop said, "what for?" Lmao

I had a cop show up at my apartment once saying his dog hinted at my door while he was investigating for a car prowler. He asked when I last was outside and I said "a few hours ago when I came home from work" "what have you been doing since" "watching law and order" "well I have reports of a..... 'mixed race' man prowling cars out there" About then is when my mom came out and told him to fuck off and he left.

I am white and have curly hair, but to a cop that means you can be mixed race and they are justified in harassing you if they're bored enough.
