When I needed the cops, they showed up to late, I'm not blaming anyone for it, but I've lost faith.
When I needed help with a violent drunk family member, my neighbours showed up to help, I talked with our lawyer friend and he told me everything I needed to tell the police they needed to hear to take the drunk away, after hearing the stories they still didn't take them away. After I told our lawyer friend what happened, he called them lazy.
Last week at a party I had some idiot cop tell me he's going to "arrest me for being drunk", while I JUST showed up and cracked my first beer
I understand the job is hard, but get a damned system in place.
