And never call for those huge fire trucks and ambulances! Uniforms are scary.

Never saw/read the follow up but people who did read it were incredulous over it. Almost as bad as those traffic/litter wardens in the UK.

...In the face of theft, some say “it’s only money” or jewelry, or whatever,
but the theft is not just a crime against property or an individual...
it’s a crime against civilization.

The proximate harm of all sin is to the sinner
They just don’t know it yet

The harm to others, community, civilization are all secondary concerns
Like throwing a rock in a pond, waves roll out disturbing all around,
But the big “Bloop” is the sinner

I did help an elderly lady change her tire (couldn’t afford road service on her insurance) and afterwards went to lunch together. She’s been a good friend for years now.

There’s a Constable’s husband in Houston who wishes he had followed #9. I guess he thought when his wife was off duty the authority passed on to him.

If I ever find myself in a community like this - I would GTFO.

Pronto.

Law and order in America is crumbling at the highest levels. Removing police from society, let alone weakening their ability to serve will lead to anarchy in most communities. There are 2A demographics and regions that can withstand minimum to zero law enforcement and a SHTF but outside of that the leftists want America on fire by design for their control.

My mother’s neighbour got a seatbelt ticket while still in the private drive of their park. The cop “justified” it by telling her that he figured she only put it on after she saw him.

Highwaymen indeed.

Responses to this article went in a strange direction. Folks who don’t hesitate to call cops on neighborhood disruptions and roadyway hazards are being very quiet.

It’s as cowardly to be paranoid of the cops as it is to expect them to defend your home, business or church.

I’ve probably called the Highway Patrol 50 times to report hazards and people in potential danger.

My neighbor is a forward Tactical Air Controller (retired USAF). He can have the black helicopters in range in under five minutes.

The responses did go off in the wrong direction, didn’t they?

The entire tone of this article was to ENCOURAGE ghetto/slum/illegal immigrant/criminal type behavior.

To be tolerant and accepting of lowlifes.

After all, it is far better for 12 illegals to be holed in in a house next to yours, than to call ICE, right?

Never call the police ever for anything ever.

Call the police only if you want someone arrested or shot including yourself.

Had a NC trooper come into the hospital I was taken to with multiple fractures and give me a ticket for driving in NC over 30 days without getting a local license.

The old man I smashed into the side of after he turned in front of me was not cited, last I knew about it.

Should have said was just visiting or something. Wouldn’t your insurance company have sued?

Calling the police

This is easy, pass no law that requires police. Make murder legal, especially among gang bangers.
