oh definitely american.

i’ve had the cops called on me frequently for stuff like breaking into my own house?? they’re also really on edge, i’ve had them shout at me to take my hands out of my pockets which… fair i guess?

not to stereotype, but America just has lots of SAHM busybody types

To clarify, you would prefer the cops not be called if someone is breaking into your house?

It sounds that the neighboirs doing those calls, did it to cause problems for the poster above, not to be helpful (basically harassment via fake calls to the police).

I bet they would NOT call the cops if real thieves showed up.

Some people try very hard to be assholes.

i think i would prefer if people had a little more evidence. i wasn't even entering my house, let alone breaking in, just outside with a flashlight
