Oh it takes domestic issues seriously. It just costs money for law enforcement to focus on what might happen instead of what did happen.
There are so many "did happen"s, and not enough resources.
I had my car broken into once. Window shattered, stereo stolen. Called the police in Waterbury and they laughed at me like "What do you want us to do about it?"
They didn't have the time to answer my phone call! Let alone dust my dashboard for prints and search for a match, etc.
Over 90% of crimes don't even see a trial.
I used to naively imagine that the law is the law, and with crime comes punishment. But the fact is, justice is expensive, and as a country, we can't afford it.
