I've always admonished ppl not to call the cops, bc they tend to make bad matters worse. My neighbors watched a man break in + try to steal my vehicle & just looked but took no action. An active neighborhood watch is a good idea. Also cmty patrols on a regular basis might help

Here's an idea... put criminals in jail and keep them there so they can no longer prey on innocent people! It's not rocket science... why obey the law when there's no meaningful penalty???
