    Please do not call the police on the homeless in the USA.

    there is no possible good outcome from doing this

      You’re calling a state funded death squad to your door. Bare minimum, they’re shooting your dog.

      There are situations where indiscriminate violence actually makes a situation better, unfortunately, and in those situations you should call the cops.

              Imagine a situation where there is already brutal violence being done to you or someone else. In that situation, the worst case scenario when you call the police is that you or that other victim have brutal violence done to them by the cops. But that's not a downgrade, that's just what was already happening. Best case is they stop the violence.

                Yeah if you're getting murdered, you don't have much to lose, and even the worst cops usually just want to have a belt notch of stopping a murder, in which case they will often attempt to actually target the correct person. No guarantees though!

        What you need to do is call different police departments to the same spot, then set off firecrackers and initiate the indiscriminate violence in which all actions of the officers are their own
