I know how you feel, mate. The police aren't very helpful and try to make you feel guilty. You just end up regretting turning to them for support.

I had them charging me a gazillion times, to the point where I was remanded in jail. Got sentenced eventually too. They don't even think about helping you the right way. They think it's better not to listen and mess with you. Then they blame your ailment.

Don't make violent threats though, if you can help it. They're inclined to use that against you. Even if somebody has done you wrong, it makes you look like a problem.

It's definitely not nice when you feel like you have to scream at the top of your lungs, and the noise does nothing. Been there. Bought the shirt.

Thank you! It makes sense.
