A friend of mine is getting phone threats.

That's pretty astounding. You'd think there'd be someone on duty who could at least take down the information, even if they were unable to investigate it right away.

It's really upsetting but that's how the police departments operate. Unless you're under a physical assault, they take it down as a complaint report. If you're under assault, you're supposed to call 911.

It's why so many women with protective orders wind up dying at the hands of their abuser.

I love when they try to make stupid rules/laws. Reminds me of this:

CUGNAUX, FRANCE
In 2007, Cugnaux had two cemeteries with only 17 plots left between them. Unfortunately, because of a high water table, the only land available to expand the town’s burial ground was on the nearby military air base. When the defense ministry decided against letting the town bury its dead there, Philippe Guérin, the mayor of the southern French village, decreed dying illegal for anyone who didn’t already have a crypt prepared to be buried in. His protest worked, and the defense ministry caved.

This world is so evil

911 has open hours ? 😱

Cops are useless. They don't protect anyone; they clean up the bodies and find someone (anyone) that they can reasonably convince a jury is guilty
