There's this scene at the start of War of the Worlds where the hero races his classic muscle car up this tiny neighborhood street at full tilt, exhaust notes at full blast, and I think he even screeches the tires by slamming the brakes pulling into the driveway. Then he walks up to his neighbor and they're all chill with him. In any other world, the neighbors would have him in handcuffs.
You have a really optimistic view of how the police would respond there. I'd wager that they would be more likely to be mad at you for bothering them with that complaint than actually do anything about it. In my experience, helpful cops are rare.
They said the neighbors, not the police. I figure it means that consensual bondage time was interrupted, so they took matters into their own hands.
This would be pretty acceptable around where I live. Not in my neighborhood but around here.
