Prioritization of Crimes..... (Score 2, Interesting)

One of the things about this that really irks me is the fact there are so many unsolved violent crimes in the world yet these governments spend so much time and resources on these "white collar" crimes. For example, about 530 am one morning at a store I was working at a man came in with pantyhose on his head and robbed the store at gunpoint. It took 40 minutes for any police to show up. They took a statement from me and two customers that were in the store. They also grabbed the tape of the robbery. That's the last I ever heard about this. I mean where was an enforcement of the law there? What kind of manpower did they devote into making my city a better place to live and getting that guy off the streets? Then a few months ago i was sitting at a red light had a sunburn and reached down to fix the sandles I was wearing. There was a slight grade to the road and my manual car rolled back and bumped the lady in a suv behind me. Of course, she calls the cops.... guess what there were 5 police cruisers there within 5 minutes. They inspected her bumper and couldn't even find a scratch. Doesn't that seem strange that I could get robbed at gunpoint and it takes 40 minutes for a cop to show up. Then I bump some lady's bumper and 5 cops can show up in a minimal amount of time? Gotta love the society we live in these days.... /end rant
