So I called Arvada police. Its vandalized and things stolen. So its been an hour and a half with no one showing up. Called dispatch he said they will get around to it verbatim. Everyone says imagine a world without cops I say imagine a world with cops who did their fucking job instead of filling quotas. Btw if a cop shows up do I have to tell him I'm carrying?
If the burglary isn't in progress, the call will not be a priority. At this point, if Arvada has an on line reporting system, you may as well use it. The report number will be useful for your insurance company. You do have insurance right?
I'm sorry you were victimized by someone who believed their need was greater than your right to be secure in your belongings. I hope you will recover quickly from your loss.
The police will never end crime. It is not likely anyone will ever be prosecuted for the crime. Hopefully, it will help the detectives identify some suspects and assist the cops in either driving the criminals into another jurisdiction or establish a pattern that will help catch them during a future crime.
Criminals suck. [Rant1]
Much agreed. Insurance check. Just a different feeling when its your house not the others you hear about. I'm over it just pissed. Criminals suck indeed and thanks for kind words
No, you don't have to inform them if you're carry.... but if they ask, don't lie. I'm sorry your house was broken into... No respect.... Hopefully the true valuables were in a safe. Let us know if we can do anything for ya.
Huge thanks Big Bear. I think I'll be ok.
Really sorry to hear that man. There is nothing worse than a fucking coward thief. I hope they find him. Actually I hope he wrecks his car on the way out of your house and loses use of his legs and he has to learn to cope with life from here on out.
Or maybe a spinal cord injury and he has to live with the humiliation of his mother wiping his ass and the humiliation that goes along with that.
Again Im sorry for your loss and violation of security at your home

Someone told me that a long time ago, "When someone comes into your home, its like "Rape" of your security.
That cant be replaced. But you CAN do things to prevent it, cameras, IMHO, are the best thing you can do. Or an Ipod touch with a laptop and webcam left on
I've got a dollar that says if you told the police when you called that your house had been broken into and that you weren't sure if the burglars were still in there and that you were armed they would have been there in about 20 minutes.... thirty, tops. [Coffee]
I know, which is why I quoted you - I just added my two cents.Quote:

Sorry for the intrusion. Does make you feel vulnerable. Anything we can keep an eye out for that was taken?
f'n thieves...
Nothing will come of it. My wifes wallet was stolen out of her desk at work(no longer works there) back in April and I still haven't heard a thing from the so called detective in Wheat Ridge. I even gave them video survailence of the fucker and yet the fuck tard detective won't do shit!! Unless something is happening to you at that very moment, police just say "oh well we tried"....such fucking bullshit!!
Trent sorry about your loss. To bad they didn't try breaking in when I came by yesterday...
Sorry to hear man, if there's anything you need help with lemme know.

To sum it up, fuck thieves.
Damn, sorry to hear this Trent. I am however relieved to hear that a bunch of guns walked out on ya.
I'm not bashing anyone. Only speaking from experience...that's all[Swim]Quote:

Ya buddy. I just didnt want to come across like what you were sayin was wrong in any way. I appreciate you opinion. Words on a screen can get misconstrued pretty easily. Just makin sure.Quote:

What it means is that no matter what the OP was he has to get his two cents in. Anytime the thread even remotely turns to something a LEO or staff or dispatching might have dropped the ball on in any way, shape or form he is on it.Quote:

Sorry for your loss LoneStar. Having your home invaded is no fun. Only had it happen once and it was very heartbreaking. You did say that they took your Plasma? Did not one of the neighbors see anything? I know I have one that used to call and go " your cat just jumped out of the window 30 seconds ago"
I would go talk to them and see if they saw anything.
Everyone else has said everything I could say ........Quote:

Danger you're one hell of a stand up man. I greatly appreciate the offer but I am one of those that has been blessed with a job in this economy. Just wouldn't feel right. Again many thanks. Ill shake your hand someday
Thanks man. I dont know about that, I just know how I would feel, or hoow I felt when my stuff got stolen.
I was in a home invasion when 2 black kids came in an robbed us pretty good. I was pretty pissed.
Thanks for the kind words. Offer still stands if you change your mind
Get let down by a detective with plenty of evidence enough times and you'll start to understand. It only took me once.Quote:

I hope the thieves get what's coming to them when they try to sell your stuff for drug money.
F***ing bastards, I would love just LOVE to catch one and break out my game shears on his ass and start popping digits off. Sorry about your place man.
Hate to hear that my man, hopefully it all works out for you.
God help the poor SOB that tries that at my house, if they get through my wife and I, they will deal with my 11 YO daughter!
Best of luck with all that! [M2]
Late arrival here, but damn I know what it's like... I had my motorcycle stolen years ago from my apartment parking lot in Arvada- took Arvada PD about 25min to show up (after calling dispatch asking if it could have been towed). Parker PD recovered it about 2 weeks later destroyed out SE of Buckley in the middle of nowhere! Needless to say, I feel the same way, thieves suck! I really wish I had been home when it happened, I would have gone out and said "Step away from the bike or my Glock will make you wish you had!"
