    How is it law enforcement to show up hours after a crime and refuse to file a report?

      I don’t know, but as a citizen you collect evidence & file a complaint. Refusing to take a report of a crime is certainly an issue that should be reported. As citizens we have to hold police accountable & try to vote for people that will help hold them accountable and create systems to ensure that issues are dealt with.

        Filing complaints is a good way to become a target of a gang that is shielded from any legal repercussions.

        I’m voting as hard as I can but the country is both gerrymandered to fuck and has allowed unlimited funding from wealthy interests (both foreign and domestic) to run whatever propaganda they want. The last time the vote went big in favor of sanity was 2008, even then we still had shitheads like Lieberman preventing real progress.
