It sucks, but it's likely because of one scary scenario for police officers;
- Annoying busybody makes lots of complaints
- Police have enough, don't respond
- Stupid busybody makes bad decision, goes over because "police won't help him"
- Dude has enough, does something stupid
-Newspaper headline "Elderly neighbor with mental illness assaulted after call to police yields no response", or some other such headline.
