Someone tried to break into my moms house last night...

High on meth and screaming that someone was chasing him at 4am trying to bust her door down. It was the neighbors who we all know cook and sell drugs but the police won't do anything.

It took them 20+ minutes to get there this morning. She called me screaming and crying that he was going to kill her. We don't even know these people. I got there around the time the cops did and they arrested the guy. But only charged him with public intox. he had needles in his pockets AND was breaking into a home. Why the fuck are there not more charges?

They've made so many arrests out of that place it's not even funny. This guy has been arrested so many times I recognized him from the inmate list.

This isn't the first time they've done something and it won't be the last I'm afraid.

I can't get her fear and her screaming out of my head. She's all I have and I swear to god if someone ever hurt her I don't know what I'd do.

The police don't take anything seriously, half the time they don't even dispatch the calls. They informed us last night that they've been doing surveillance on her house and not theirs because the information that dispatch is giving them is that it's her house. Every time we've called we've given them the address of the neighbors, a description of the house, the people we see, everything. And you tell me that for a year you've watched the wrong house despite having dozens of arrests out of that place? What the hell is going on? Somebody needs to get their line of communication straight!

This neighborhood has become nothing but drugs in the last year. We can't afford to move and we shouldn't have to! We were here long before them. I live on the same road a few houses down from hers and I'm so tied of all the drugs and overdoses.

If you do drugs, I have no sympathy for you. I've tried to understand. Ive tried to have sympathy but not now. Not after what I've seen in the last year. The violence and the fear and the hell they've put me and my mom through.

She didn't have any way of protecting herself, she's scared to death of guns. But now she's having someone teach her so she can be prepared.

I'm scared guys. I could've lost her and I'm so scared. I know they're going to retaliate because a couple of them got arrested last night.

I'm not asking for advice or even replies if no body reads this. I just had to vent.
