I know Lemmy has the ACAB sentinment, and I get it, I don’t trust them either. But real talk tho, there are some scenarios where you might not have other options.

So… the question is: When, if ever, would you call for law enforcement? And if you distrust law enforcement, is there ever a situation where it gets so bad that you just have to risk involving law enforcement?

    If your spouse is abusing you, they’ll side with your spouse.

    Well this depends. If you are a woman, they are more likely than not to side with you, if you are a man… yea just don’t bother, since you are the one getting arrested. (Exception to this rule is if you are a woman and your male partner is rich and already has the cops on their payroll, then probably don’t call) If you are in a same-sex relationship, it seems like a 50/50 of who’s getting arrested, or even both getting arrested.
