It's still debatable if it's a good use of police resources.

Well they didnt seem to keen on using many of those resources either time. Probably spent about 10 minutes of their time on the phone between both calls and about 30-40 minutes of my time being on hold. I have no idea if they even looked for the guy in the first place so that part I cant account for. Its a simple call about an attempted assault and a follow up one because I saw the guy and thought maybe this would be helpful to let them know. Perhaps he was a person of interest if he has had this type of behaviour with others. I dont know, Ive seen the streets why pretend this kind of thing cant be adressed. Maybe the guy has issues and could use some help. Maybe someone else could be hurt in the future. I made a judgment call trying to be a good citizen. Im not out for justice.

Dont worry Commissioner Gordon your resources weren't wasted on this one. Batman did your job for you.

I can't believe the knobs in this thread.

We just had a thread about a random act of violence resulting in an elderly lady being paralyzed where the majority of posters were calling for severe punishment of the guilty party.

Some piece of #### threw a giant rock at OP's head because he said he didn't have a dart to spare. The OP felt it was extremely dangerous given the size of the rock and how hard it was thrown (and what was aimed at..). And some people seriously question why he might be concerned encountering this same deranged jackwagon again? Are you effing kidding me?

Seriously what is going on in this thread?

I've never seen so many people question random #### so much. Like the guy is under the impression that he could have been seriously hurt by the action of some mental case. Why exactly do we need to find video footage of it to believe him?

We’re going to need some video evidence to back up this claim. You have until tomorrow.

Lou you said this place is by your work - are you able to do anything to feel safer such as avoiding the area, or going to it accompanied by others as opposed to alone?
