I remember a few years ago when I was walking in my own apartment and my downstairs neighbor kept getting angry until he eventually came upstairs and started repeatedly kicking my door down and threatening to kill me.When I called the police, they took their time to arrive, like about an hour, and it was only one cop, no lights and sirens, and he acted like it was nothing and only told the neighbor to be mindful of others.How come the police didn't take this more seriously?
>>34783376did you film them doing this?since you weren't hurt and i'm guessing the damage wasn't on the door, there wasn't much evidence for them to make a case. i think you have to press charges too depending on where you're at in the world.
>>34783388>did you film them doing this?eh seems like a requirement these days but no I had no camera
>>34783430idk then. cops were probably being lazy and shit at their job by not interviewing the person. next time film it.buy some pepper spray if someone is nuts. if i had to rely on the cops where i live, i'd be dead so i make sure i can protect myself if someone attacks me.i think studies show cops would have to be at the scene of the crime within 40 seconds of a person breaking in and finding a homeowner, so unless you live in New York City, game over.
>>34783443yeah I need to pick better places to live instead of ghettosstuff like this never happened to me when I lived in nice apartments
>>34783376Why do people want to kill you?>>34783388Nobody uses film anymore.
>>34783467>Why do people want to kill you?I don't fucking know the guy was insane. I was just walking in my own apartment, it's not my fault the floors don't have sound deadening cause it's an old building from the 1950s.
>>34783376>How come the police didn't take this more seriously?Cops are under no obligation to protect you, OP. There's literally been cases where a guy is getting stabbed by a homeless degenerate, and the cops just hung back in another subway car.https://prospect.org/2022/04/18/police-have-no-duty-to-protect-the-public/Also, this is doubly true if you are perceived as poor or homeless. If some homeless fuck trespasses on the property of a well to do man, the response is very different than if a homeless man attacks some renter in an apartment.
>>34783503That is dystopian...
>>34783503So... the moral of the story is be rich and the police will care about you?
>>34783532It's the reality of living in a major city. I live in Denver, a pretty woke, progressive shthole, and if it weren't for family being here I would have moved away like the rest of my old friends long ago. Probably to a more...right wing place where rule of law, order, conformity, and gun rights are respected. And I've seen how they deal with bums in places like that. Much nicer, cleaner, friendlier cities.The reality of the situation where I live is that the Denver metro areas various jurisdictions are so utterly gimped by political pressure that the average citizen is fucked. Are nightlife is restricted somewhat; people don't really explore around here like I used to in 2016-2019 because the streets in downtown Denver are basically open asylums. Our public transport is currently being defunded because nobody but the most desperate ride it regularly. Why? Homeless druggies sit there and smoke up in the bus or the train cars, or they have a mental episode and harass people and the security and police do NOTHING. And if you do stand up and fight back, like, say, push a homeless guy or punch them, a bunch a wokies are going to film you, you'll be arrested, and you'll end up a villain on the 6 O'clock news. Even though those same progressive retards "don't feel safe" in thier own city.A tweaker can, and I have seen, them steal cars in the apartment where I live. The DA does nothing. But if you, a working stiff, do the same thing, or try and stop somebody stealing your car, you get arrested and you catch a felony. The DA hjas been a revolving door for crimes for nearly 6 years now. The guy who stole my car had 8 prior thefts on record .>>34783576That's historically how it always has been dude.
>>34783576if someone wants to kill you fbi stats show 40 seconds. i don't think cops can do much in that time. all you can do is protect yourself, live with others that will, or hire security if you're rich.sgt bart here >>34783467 said they don't even admit film evidence anymore so... buy pepper spray or a firearm
>>34783586>they don't even admit film evidence anymoreWhat the fucking fuck?!
>>34783586>>34783612>digital recording >filmBeing thrown out since before AI was a widespread thing. Recordings alter themselves to change lighting and erase anomalies, among other tricks.
>>34783532>>34783576born yesterday? yes, current day usa is a dystopia. police do nothing to help regular people and police budgets grow every year
>>34784458>you saged this shitfuck you and bump
>>34784481double bubble fist bump
>>34783376On a night with rapes and murders going on all over town, a neighnor complaining about noise didn't quite rank as an emergency
>>34784723So if I go and try to violently kick your door down saying I'm gonna beat the shit outta you, you would be okay with that?
