I just moved into a perfect home; ½ home and ½ office close to a district court that I appear in regularly. I’ve been there for about a month and I have noticed that my next-door neighbors may be going through a divorce. Nevertheless, I have kept my mouth shut despite their arguments that reach through my open windows. I haven’t called the cops(yes, we all hate those guys, I get it) until tonight because he was threatening to hurt the wife. I was out on my porch because I heard the bullshit and I tried to talk them down. The mom of the husband was up in my face and the husband were both calling me out, trying to fight me. He, at one point, called me a “wannabe nigga lawyer” and that he would kill me, I told him that he could come by anytime to eat an uppercut. Instead of amplifying this situation anymore, I called the cops. BTW, I hate calling the cops as they rarely do anything productive as evidenced tonight. No one went to jail, they only talked to the mother and husband.
Anyways, the cops have left and I am still here. No murders, no calls to my friends who owe me bail money thus peace on the block. Nevertheless, would you have intervened like I had? Called the cops/my boys(yes, they are real)?
