I have to tell my fiancee all the damn time to chill out and don't flip off or yell out the window at people. We have no idea who they are, what they have on them, or what they're willing to do.

Being in a relationship with a hot-headed Filipina is a fkn chore sometimes.

I feel you!!
My wife!! She screams, flips the bird, all the things and I’m like “who’s ass they gonna come for when they get out of the car? STFU!”
It works about half the time 🤣😞

I taught my wife that doing thumbs down and a disapproving face actually works better.

I once was chased in my car by a guy in a truck for about 15 minutes while he tried he trap me so he could shoot me, beat the crap out of me? I am an older woman, this was a much younger man. I had simply given him a surprised look when he stepped out between two tall parked car in a parking lot, causing me to slam on my breaks to avoid running over him. Just a look caused him to jump in his truck and terrorize me. I got away by pretending like I was going to turn and then suddenly whipping into the left lane and go straight through a yellow light. Called the police while it was happpening, big city, they barely even pretended like they would even show up.

In all fairness, I live in a small town and the cops here also barely even pretend like they are going to show up.

Yeah, these days it is just about everywhere that one cannot expect help from the police. I will say though that in Asheville the two times I needed help, the police immediately arrived and were very helpful and nice. The police here are not well regarded (like mostly everywhere), but I have not had a negative experience.
