I Have to Call the Police, and I Feel Like a Booger

Bread Styx · Bad Bread!!

Come to think of it, I have never had to call on the big dogs for anything....Thank God. I called campus police once on a guy who would not leave me alone, but that is a looooong story.( The new guy Shooter knows the story).

If the phone company says you need police authorization to do what they need to do , then its should not make you feel stupid.

I have had the cops out my way many times...thing of life, nothing to be ashamed of, it's part of their job. Not everything is life or death for a cop, sometimes you just need them to help you through the legal channels!

I call the cops whenever I am on the road, if there is a speeder that is driving reckless, well I would rather call them now then to call 911 later and report an accident.

I have also called them for a public intox in front of my house to. No big deal, just thank the officer and they will be on there way.

entre new · Et tu, Brute?

Well, I think I'm going to call them in half an hour or so. Then they can hit my house on their way from briefing to Starbuck's. Thanks, guys.

EN-

Dont ever think that doing something like this is silly or worthless. There are alot of people doing illegal act over the phone and unless people like you call and reort, and give the cops a chance of catching them(and prosacuting them) it will continue to happen. Just becasue its not "exciting" or life and death...its still needed to be done.

there was a ring that was busted like a year ago, that got a list of numbers and they appeared to be an exterme group- then they would bully and harress people untill they ethier gave money, change the number, or gave into them more.

one person turned them in and got a reward from crime stoppers due to it. They were wanted in other areas for illegal wiring and harring people. the ring had 6 people, they all walked in to prison with no less then a 35 year term.

That's disgusting. In this case they've sent me a petition I'm supposed to sign and return. I don't intend to sign it so they keep calling me.

Unfortunately the police said that in this case, it's a "good faith" call so they can't take a report. The officer did however call the number and leave a very authoritative message saying that they are to stop calling me. I hope that works.

texaschickeee · Seductively Sassy

I hope it works also.

I came home late one night after being away for a few days and almost immediately the phone rang. I answered it and while I was talking, the display on the phone lit up and showed "extension in use." Since the only other extension was upstairs in my bedroom and I hadn't been upstairs yet, I ended my conversation and left the house, going straight to the police station which is maybe half a mile away.

Two officers followed me home and went through the house while I waited outside in the car, nothing was amiss so it was probably just a glitch in the phone. I felt incredibly stupid and told them so, lol, but as one officer informed me, I did the right thing by removing myself from perceived danger and coming to the police. I still felt stupid, though.

I've been getting annoying phone calls from a special interest group and need police authorization to have a trap put on my phone. Yesterday they said they'd send an officer out to take a report, and to call them when it's convenient for me. I feel so dumb about calling officers out for such a dumb thing, and I will be embarassed. Has anyone else felt stupid about a call to the police?

How do you survive the day, with all these fears and feeling stupid all the time? No wonder you don't leave your house!

Well, now..there is really no reason for that. She is merely asking for advice. There is simply no need to be a jackass about this.

Why would you assume that I don't leave my house? Because someone said I should get out of my house and meet women, you conclude that I don't leave my house? I don't know what your problem is with me BeeJay, but it's getting old fast.

you may have felt stupid, but it was a smart move.

trust me, they would rather go thought he house like this, then to find you....welll you know.

YEARS ago...I saw a show, prolly oprah when I still watched her. and the topic was home securty. the guest that was given tips had done time, and talked about they people came home while he was there (up stairs....) and he went under the bed.

he was there untill they left in the morning and even made a sandwich before leaving. He said. always look under your bed, also checkl the dark corners to see the floor of the closet.

I do it with passion, and listen for barks.

I am not ashamed to admit that I was scared. Lol, when they told me no one was in the house, I even asked if they'd checked all of the closets.

I would have too. I hope you didn't have any embarassing lingerie in there.

I don't even want to think about what they may have seen.

I didn't even care, though. Embarrassment about that wasn't even a consideration. Then one of the officers left, but the other stayed behind and asked if I minded if he used my bathroom. At that point, I was so grateful to them I woudn't have minded if he'd just gone right there on the floor.

Ok, that's a bit of an exaggeration

OK, ready for a funny.

I was living in Texas. I got up in the middle of the night to go to the bath room. I never turn lights on when I do this, how else would I piss all over the place like every other guy? Ok, that wasn't the funny part.

So, here I am walking back to my bed and I can see thru the cat door that the garage light is on, I am like hmmm... so I start walking over to open the door and turn it off and I am about 15 feet away, and the light goes out!!! I didn't have a garage door opener or a light on a timer so, I am like OH SHIT!!!!!!!

OK, USA think... You are not working, your radio is out in the car in the garage and you don't want to walk in on something, so call the working guys. I find the house phone, a cordless. I push the button to turn it on.... nothing OH FUCK THEY CUT MY PHONE LINE!

So, I go get my cell phone and call 911, I tell them what is going on. I can here half the county comming over the phone as officers, deputies, even two troopers call E/R. This is a cops house getting hit and the suspects are there now, we aren't standing for this in Texas! I have grabbed my gun, and have snuck out the back door, I am over two fences and have made my way accross the street so I can watch from a good advantage point. By now I can hear tire screeching in the night, engines racing and I hear all of the radio traffic over the phone.

Once I am outside and accross the street, I can see that my garage door is closed, so I am like ok, they are inside, I need to go back to the back side of the house so they can't get out that way, I would hear the garage door open if they open that. So, back over one fence so that I can watch from the neighbors yard. Did I mention I am doing all of this in my boxers and nothing more? Let me tell you, the snake was trying to get in the grass too! OK, so here I am watching and waiting. Yep, half the county did show up. 9 city cars, 4 county cars, and 2 troopers in a pear tree. They make entry, and nothing.... no one. they call me over to ask what was going on, and as I walk into the house I flip the light switch, nothing. hhhmmm, I try to turn on another light.... nothing. OH CRAP THE POWER WAS OUT!!!!!

You see, my side of the block was on a different grid then the other side of the block, so when I went outside, I didn't notice that there was no power, and of course the cordless phone wouldn't work without power. My big caper in my own house was that I caught a power failure in progress. I felt really stupid!!!! And you know that I still hear about that and I have been gone and out of the area for 4 years!!!

Hahaha, that is a great story! I can imagine that they do still give you shit about that.

They certainly do have an impressive show of force, so to speak, when a cop's house may be violated. When I still lived with my parents (my dad was a cop), one night we thought someone was breaking into the garage and called 911 - there were cops swarming all over the place within minutes.

LOL. When one officer used the bathroom at my house it was right after the cat used the litterbox, and he kind of smelled afterwards. I think he might have stepped in it (small bathroom) because I was in his car with him after and he reeked. Ha ha. Serves him right.
