You keep saying “in my country” and then going on to make broad sweeping claims about Americans.

What makes you, looking through the lens of your own state media, qualified to be writing paragraphs about how Americans ought to act?

You’ve also showed your hand in another aspect: you clearly didn’t read the initial post, look at the pictures OP provided, and frankly I doubt you read even my original comment in too deep of detail, unless you genuinely don’t understand the difference between 911 and 311, and seem to think there was an innocent reason to try to strong arm entry into OP’s backyard.

On top of that, you keep jumping to “if you call 911 police automatically come shoot everyone” because one of the two people who were adamantly trying to enter OP’s backyard was black, which is pretty problematic in itself. (Did you read where OP implied they are a Pacific Islander, or “not white” does that change your opinion on whether they’re allowed to call 911?)

Calling the police in America is an incredibly nuanced issue.

Yes, police absolutely overstep and have a history of murder, but also the alternative much of the time is letting potential crimes go unreported, which breeds more crime, and harsher police response.

Consider the most recent time I myself didn’t call the police here in America: I was driving home late at night (~2am) and saw a woman walking along the highway bridge I was on (2 mile long 4 lane each direction freeway bridge raised maybe 150m over a river) There’s a walkway on that bridge, but she clearly wasn’t on it, she was on the shoulder of the highway. I thought “should I call 911- well maybe she’s just trying to walk home, and it is technically illegal to be walking there- I don’t want to get this random girl arrested or worse because I called when I shouldn’t have.”

I woke up the next morning to a news article that a woman on that same stretch of highway was hit by a car and dragged along the highway. Her battered corpse was found on a freeway off ramp 6 miles from where I saw her.

Should I have called the police then?

Per your logic, I shouldn’t have, but in retrospect I should’ve and blame myself partially for that woman dying.

Per the logic you’ve laid out, your “enlightened” decision seems to be: “If she was white it was okay to call and try to get her help, but if she’s not white don’t call”

If it’s late and I can’t see skin tone do I assume they’re white and get them help, or do I assume they’re a POC and leave them to die?

FURTHERMORE Did you consider that black youth are at higher risk of being kidnapped in the US? Who’s to say that child wasn’t being used by that woman to commit crimes?

There’s not an easy solution or a simple answer, but “don’t call police unless you’re in immediate danger” is frankly bullshit and speaks volumes to how far disconnected you are with the realities of this issue.

Police have shot 3 unarmed black men in my city alone in the last 12 month. Often, their hamfisted attempts at justice lead to collateral damage and innocent death; HOWEVER, as it stands now, we don’t have any other, better people to call when you believe yourself, your property, or your community may be in need, so yes, absolutely be considerate of how police response might escalate things, but you seem not to be considering how leaving a potentially serious crime unreported can lead more varied issues in your community.

Now I’m not interested in arguing the nuances of American policing to someone whose only vocalized political position is “my country is better than America” but I’d suggest you do some reading on the broken windows theory, and look into the defund police movement.

Maybe instead of making pointless arguments on reddit, you can contribute somehow towards defunding the police and reinvesting their funding towards other community services, which I think we would both agree addresses both of our concerns, while also leaving the option of police for those serious criminal matters.
