I suspect some of how the police asked is a result of too many crooks ‘crying wolf’ while being arrested. Lie to good cops, using proper techniques, about fake injuries and fake complaints enough, and they won’t believe you when you really have something wrong. And that ‘you’ may not be you personally, but some other generic thug who has real injuries but is ignored because of others’ fake complaints. Cops inevitably get many more hours ‘training’ in the ‘hood’ than in their classrooms. Don’t blame them for what they learn there, blame their ‘teachers.’
Asked=reacted. Dumb Siri.
