Why do some cops even become cops?

I’m in a conditional relationship with my husband. Things get violent, but I’m disabled and rent needs to be paid. I’ve called the cops multiple times on him, but the ones in my county say they are coming and then proceed not to come. I haven’t had many resources from the state or county to be able to get accommodations to break my lease and move away from here.

Today, I called the cops and there was such a kind woman on dispatch who made sure they were otw for me. I was finally on last leg. I was willing to live in my car if I had to. Then I see the two men with no interest in anything I’m saying. I’m asking for resources, giving them information, crying while doing it just trying to get help, and they were there doing basically nothing. I mentioned having videos of the crimes and telling them no one has ever came to help me every time I called. One of them had an airpod in, and the other quite literally stared off into lala land the whole time. I asked for women and he goes “what” as if he was offended. So now you care?

I’m just so fed up with the police in the county I live in. I’m sure they get calls like this all the time, but I genuinely needed some help and they provided me with nothing but a card with a case number. Not even a goodbye when leaving.

I don’t need their sympathy. I know I am in a stuck position, but not everyone gets what it’s like to have nowhere to go until it’s them. I certainly didn’t. What I did need though is resources, and they did absolutely nothing to help me acquire those. They didn’t even try to look for him at the addresses I gave and they were LITERALLY down the street.

I told the dispatch lady all I needed was resources to get out of there and she assured me they would do their best to help on site.

I’m just disappointed and once again… stuck.

This country isn’t very kind to the people who genuinely need help whether that be with mental disabilities, pregnancy, childcare, funding groceries, or even just getting them a simple job. I’m just so disappointed that this is the world I was born into.
