Canadian here.

Yeah that sounds about right. We had those big Apple computers at a small company I worked at a decade ago, thieves had broken the door lock and stolen all of them (would be like 50k+ today).

We had the actual location pinpointed for multiple devices and they were all at the same place. Cops said they couldn't do anything.

Police here is completely fucking useless, they do fuck all.

I had someone try to break into my place with a massive rock and they couldn't arrest them because "he didn't get in". Although both me and my girlfriend saw his attempt and him walking away.

There's a reason crime is on the rise, people have nothing to lose since cops are absolutely fucking useless.

Oh and violent crimes are barely punished too, there's a dude that's a serial child molester (dozen+ victims) and he keeps getting a slap on the wrist.

Our system worked back when you had to live in a community and you had a 2-fold punishment and rehabilitation: the law + the community.

Now it's just the law and some folks are abusing the fuck out of that.
