    It’s public money, why waste it when you could provide it for them.

    But argue fallacious points.

      Okay so genius, are the cops going to provide the footage for the person to watch themselves to narrow down the time?

      How the fuck do you expect this person to work it out if the ones with access to the evidence to do so refuse to do so?

      And further fucking more, how is doing their job, wasting public money? There’s a lot of money wasted on police, investigating a robbery for a real person is not one of them.

      So when there is a pothole in front of your driveway, you’re going out and filling it in yourself, right? Because why waste the city’s valuable time when you could do it yourself?

        If it’s in your driveway it’s your problem, yes.

          They said in front. So right after you go out

          Even if it was in your driveway, unless you’re a cement construction worker you’d probably have no way to fix it and contact somebody

      Who is “you” in this sentence? I mean, I could probably write security camera software, but I don’t, and have no plans to. I imagine most of the people here are the same.
