Some people, for some reason, consider their day wasted if they don't make at least one person they perceive as lower on the totem pole than them suffer. And they consider themselves good guys, helpful guys and pillars of their communities. Which is too fucking sad and infuriating to put into words..
is the implication that Americans might not be the most moral beings in the world that scary?
dude, small towns are filled with some of the most vile and spiteful people I have ever met, literally hold grudges their entire lives, and think themselves better than you because their great great grandad did something in the area, they are exactly the people who would call the cops that fast
counterpoint, how about you get a statement from the police about no one calling? oh wait, turns out police don't give statements like that AND don't actually release who called for what (and for good reason)
but wait, you're just trying to put up some proof that you know isn't possible to get because you can't accept that small towns are where hate lives
to be fair, there are a lot of priests who don't do anything to children, meanwhile the hate of homless people in America is so high several states have literally outlawed being homeless
