      You’ll change your tune when you get robbed and you need someone to show up 4 hours later and shoot your dog

        My car was stolen last week. 48 hours later my partner tracked it down and went to get it. The police hadn’t even requested the carpark CCTV in that time. We had to call the police to actually enter the place it was at so we didn’t get arrested for breaking and entering ourselves. The police will count this as their win, their solve even though they did practically nothing. They didn’t even arrest the guy who had our car. As useful as a chocolate teapot.

        Four hours, wow, such fast response times.

        Usually they tell you to come to the station and fill out a report.
