This argument did not go well

You can't convince people to do their job with logic when they just don't want to do their job. After minorities, the thing cops hate most is doing their job.

Come on, don't disparage our hard-working Boys in blue. Without police who's going to come to your house to take notes about the crime that you have sufficient evidence to prove, and even have a likely suspect for, and then never follow up?

when they just don’t want to do their job.

It might also be a matter of getting a directive from their management not the care, because there's not enough cops to go around for the 'important' stuff.

They don't want to waste their limited time for simple property theft, which is ironic considering that's what police are supposed to be doing (stopping theft).

The answer would be then to hire more police, but unfortunately that would mean higher taxes for the citizenry, and that seems to be a hard glass ceiling.

WRONG! After minorities, it's poor people. Then doing their job. :P
