Contrary to stereotype: a large majority of ________I met were very nice people. Not too loud either.

You could apply this statement to virtually any country on the planet.

No way! I've been to hundreds of cities in many countries on every continent. People in some places are not friendly at all! Most of China is not. Most of India is not. Russia is definitely not. Pakistan is not either! There are exceptions to the rule, but the norms vary wildly! Most of the US is very friendly, especially outside of large cities like New York and LA. Most Canadians are very friendly and will openly engage in conversation with you as well. You will not find that in China, most of the Middle East, Russia, etc.

A friend of mine living on minimum wage recently waited in line for an iPhone 5, yet is so destitute that her 18-month old has been fed mostly Ramen and Cheetos for the past year. When have you seen young parenting go horribly, horribly wrong?

Police of Reddit; what is your best "Nope, not worth it" story.

Replying to Xaliver · seriously? This is their job. Why are they so goddamn lazy- drunk drivers are serious dangers. At least the chicago guy had an excuse other than that it was too much bother.

It's current policy in Chicago to not respond to non-violent crimes. There are actually signs in certain parts of the city. Too much violent crime and not enough police to handle it.
