Happy Friday everyone. Also ACAB. Especially the ones in Texas who stood outside of an elementary school and let children die.
I had to call the cops on my mum the other day. She’s been abusing my younger siblings for years and CPS refuses to do anything. I’m still trying to get the kids out of there but I knew there was an incident happening in the moment so I called the cops.
The police showed up four hours late, told mum which kid contacted me about the incident, and left. Putting that kid in even more danger than before.
The moderator on the phone blamed me for not doing enough to help the kids. When I told her that I’m a disabled 20 year old who’s already reported to CPS many many times, who’s already made an official complaint to CPS when they didn’t listen, who’s already contacted a family hotline, a legal hotline, red cross, lifeline, Vinnies, Legal Aid, my local member of parliament, and the minister of CPS for our state, she told me to just try harder.
“Who controls our streets?
When the police dictate the nature of the opposition, there can be no opposition, only a police state."
