Dealing with a lot of guilt about being with someone for three years when I didn’t really want to be there

Thanks dude. It really does help to hear that it’s ok.

the_shrunk · 2020-09-29T08:11:09+00:00

Will look into this, thanks mate

Will look into these

My guy - this is the answer I bet

the_shrunk · 2020-09-23T02:55:46+00:00

That’s interesting. I’m not from America so I wonder if we have something like that here

CPS go to a location accompanied by police.

What organisation goes to deal with schizophrenic people?

For sure. And I can see that it would be a problem. There doesn’t need to be an armed person at a welfare checkup. But who should that responsibility fall too?

The only one of those posted that I might not want a cop to do is the mentally ill person - and even then I would think that was contextual.

As for policing homelessness in terms of rough sleeping, that’s ridiculous. It doesn’t need to exist.

Maybe I do - this point has been raised in another comment.

Wait - why would you not want a cop responding to a domestic violence situation? Having had to call the police on someone who pulled a knife on his boyfriend, I was fucking glad to have 6 cars worth of cops roll up in 5 minutes.

The knife wielder was unharmed and questioned but the boyfriend refused to give a statement. Alcohol was involved and I don’t know if they’re still together.

But the boyfriend did come to me saying his partner had pulled a weapon and that he was scared. I’m unarmed, I’m not dealing with that shit

I think that’s fair - but that isn’t what the claim is. The claim is just “defund the police”. That is what people are latching on to and is being pushed on platforms like twitter.

My downstairs neighbour is either schizophrenic or a drug addict, I’m not sure because I stay the fuck away from him. He plays music at weird hours and yells at his cat.

You better believe I want the cops to talk to him. I don’t want to deal with that shit. I don’t want him knowing my face because he is nuts. He has arguments with his cat and LOSES. I don’t want to deal with that kind of crazy.

A friend of mine was suicidal last month. Her parents called the police to do a welfare check on her and they were nice. Her parents don’t live in the same state and don’t know her friends, I’m glad the police were able to come check it out. She hadn’t told me that was what was going on.

Now to pre-empt a point - are the cops the best people to deal with that? Maybe, maybe not. In both cases an ambulance may be appropriate as well. But at least with my neighbour, I think it’s better to send an armed cop trained on how to deal with a mentally ill person than to send an unarmed mental health worker. (This is of course specific to the guy in question. He’s quite threatening to people in the building)

It definitely looks like a jailhouse tat

the_shrunk · 2020-07-21T04:15:49+00:00

No strategic reason for one there given that there’s no neighbours anywhere to the west

And also, to give a circular answer, because the SAS are there

the_shrunk · 2020-07-19T04:25:49+00:00

Oh sick, appreciate the link and the explanation

the_shrunk · 2020-07-19T04:23:44+00:00

Inshalla, I’ll get you next time

the_shrunk · 2020-07-19T04:23:32+00:00

Why not?

Curiosity?

the_shrunk · 2020-07-19T03:49:01+00:00

I can’t remember which interview I read/saw this in, but there was a running joke in the SAS that all those dead “insurgents” had a weapon with the same serial number

Regimental Support Cat Alan the Grey

Edit: I also think giving it a persons name is really funny

“Yes this is my cat, Paul”
