This is the real reason crime is down in Los Angeles
Samantha lives in LA and has had to call 911 for the police four times
Call 1: A homeless person was trying to break into her apartment building. She was outside of her building while it was happening. She called 911, βI was placed on hold for about 10 minutes, and then they told me that since the person was homeless, they would not be sending the cops out, that they would try to get like homeless intervention people out, and it would take no less than an hourβ
This was no help
Call 2: This one's really messed up. She watched a 80 year old man βget the sh*t beat out of himβ by like a 20 year old. βLike bad, repeatedly, and this kid had his phone out the whole time, was recording it, like beat the shit out of this old, old, old man in the middle of the street, in the middle of Sunset Boulevard. This old man is like lying there bleeding everywhere, and I called the police and nobody came.β
Call 3: Her car was being broken into and someone was attention to steal it. βI waited on hold for 40 minutes before someone picked up and said, "Oh, you have to do that online." She was told how to categorize the incident. They told her wrong and it her police report was rejected. She called back and they said βThereβs nothing they can doβ and βnothing will be doneβ
Call 4: βA tweaker was loitering and tweaking outside my apartment for hours and eventually trying to break into itβ After he was in the process of trying to break in she called 911 and after 3 hours nobody showed but but they called back to check on her. The man was gone, the cops didnβt help
Crime rates arenβt down in Los Angeles. Residents are just no longer reporting them because this is the response
We see this over and over again
