So why don't we call the police?

[Husar]

I repeat, I haven't seen anything that says or suggests that the police didn't go after the robber. If you have, show me.

I haven't, but a chase wasn't mentioned either.

The shop-owner should have known that he was breaking the law and has no reason whatsoever to whine about it. If he asked a permit like he was supposed to there'd be no problem, and the police could have been more alert on robberies (or you'd have good reason to accuse them of not doing their job)

Well, that's right, he should have gotten the permission.

The fact that cops give some cases of theft more priority then others has less to do with laziness and more with cost-benefit considerations. Spending hundreds of man-hours to solve every petty theft equals pissing away tax money.

That's very nice, but also means that those who cannot always afford to get a replacement for what was stolen will be left with nothing while others who could easily afford to replace the stolen goods, get more help. Which is very anti-Robin Hood.

I also agree with Louis, very well said, but police, as most other "agencies" is usually underfunded.

And IA, those videos were hilarious.
