Nothing. Not even talk to them. Being cordially distant.
Pretty much how I am with all of my neighbors anyway…
Same.
Mostly mind my own business, but expect to have to record and report a domestic abuse.
Just ignore them? I already ignore my neighbours that aren’t pricks, ignoring a prick is no different
We had cops for neighbours at one place and one down the street in another. Both great people. Used to get together with them, kids played together, etc.
Great people don’t remain cops for long, so I really doubt it
I still know one of them. Have been an acquaintance of another cop for 15 years. Still great people.
Until they witness their coworkers do awful things and say nothing.
And I can tell you with certainty that’s what they do, because the ones that do try to do the right thing are fired at best, and literally murdered at worst.
!! What country do you live in?
The US. Look up Christopher Dorner for just one, high profile, example.
I don’t think you can judge cops worldwide by the cops in your country.
Ok.
Cops can be fine, many of them want to do good. But law enforcement also attracts/breeds a certain type of thumbhead person that either loves or hates you.
Cop lives somewhere down the street.
I ignore him.
But I also have talked to the neighbors on purpose like. Twice. In almost twenty years lol.
I wouldn’t really be able to just up and move so I’d just avoid them as much as possible and hope for the best
A bunch of social media accounts with their name and address may start attacking Scientology and right-wing crazies.
I did have one down the street at one point. We each minded our own business and I considered it good for my family’s safety to have a police car always parked nearby
I’d be more discreet about my moonshine operation, that’s for sure.
Not american here, cops here are actually a trained job with multiple years of training before going out. 3 years pure training minimum and the slightes missbehaviour can get you fired and suspended from your job which will be marked down
Things are more strict in America, they hold up a mirror to you and if you breathe on it and it fogs up, then you are hired.
I hope earnestly you don’t mean German cops.
Lol no i dont. Augsburg City Club got raided by 500 police just so the state could show their power again
Yeah, I thought your name narrowed it down to DACH and there’s a lot of German cop apologists out there, because they’re white and only interact with cops during traffic stops.
Oh hell no. Germany is racist af all over
I would go out of my way to avoid them
My neighbour growing up was a cop. He and his wife were Christian fundies who had like 8 kids.
I literally never had a single bad interaction with them, and by all accounts he was an alright dad to those kids. I still see him when I visit my folks for the holidays, and when I do, I see his kids now all grown up with kids of their own visiting their parents
Helped my cop neighbor move his gun safe into his house. We mostly keep to ourselves but I’d rather him on my side in a crisis.
Helped my cop neighbor move his gun safe into his house.
You left your fingerprints/DNA on the gun safe… 😱
I watch too many tv to know what’s coming, he’s a dirty one and he’s gonna frame you for something.
Would that be worse than the crackhead who lived there before them?
Yes
