This is getting stupid.
Yes there are some bad cops, but overall we need to get away from this I’m scared of cops bs.
If people are truly scared of cops why are they always calling them? Next time someone tries to rob or murder them, they should call BLM or LGBTQ to help them. I’m serious, if you claim to be scared of the police, you can’t just be scared of them at school right?

To be blunt, if you're in a life and death situation calling the cops isn't going to do you much good, particularly if you're already in your own home.

Whats the saying? When seconds count, the Police will be there in Minutes.
Police investigate more crime than they actually stop. They do stop some, but mostly it's a after the fact deal.

American police are scary compared to cops from other countries.

Here are ten major US cities and their average response time, ranked best to worst:
Chicago: 3.46 minutes
Los Angeles: 5.7 minutes
Seattle: 7 minutes
Dallas: 8 minutes
Miami: 8 minutes
New York City: 9.1 minutes
Atlanta: 9.5 minutes
Houston: 10 minutes
Detroit: 12 minutes
Denver: 13 minutes

Calling the cops is typically more of an after the event type thing; accidents, theft, property damage, etc.
