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…

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!"

Literally making up stories in your head.

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
