I don't know if you can call them directly - you probably could; every station must have a non-emergency number. But if you stop by, they will likely be happy for the distraction.

Increased punishment does not act as a deterrent to criminal behavior. The only deterrent to criminal behavior is an increased perceived belief in being caught. That's why DUI checkpoints work, but automatic loss of a license doesn't.

Isn’t it a federal crime at this point?

Anything and everything should be reported. We know a dogwhistle when we see one, and we do our best to remove content before it's even reported. But we can't have eyes on every thread at all times.

Please report any racist content. We can't be in every thread all the time and take it very seriously.

How do we report dog whistles? They skirt around it but talking about the neighborhoods instead of the residents.

Exactly, it’s a good mix of suburbia and city people but I have found these huge huge packs of the bike life people are the suburban people. You see the occasional few dirt bikes doing wheelies and that’s city folk.

Does it have to be outright or do dogwhistles count?

Definitely part of it. Just look at all the narratives and commentators joking about how Philadelphia was going to be anarchy and chaos whether the Eagles won or lost. It feeds into outside people thinking that's what they have to do, when the reality is the people that actually live here aren't like that. Philly never riots when a team loses, we just get sad and drunk.

Did you even try calling them? If they're not busy, they're only a few blocks from you. Not like they're gonna come out sirens blazing. Worst that can happen is they say no.

I think another factor is a sense of rules not applying as much since you're in a different area than where you spend most of your time in. Thinking you're nearly unidentifiable, not caring about the locals since you know you won't be running into them again, and thinking the local police will somehow have a tougher time finding you since you're not a local. Edit: not sure which word caused this to be auto-removed.

The same people in here that were upset this would fit a narrative about a black guy killing a cop are somewhat satisfied it is a white Bucks kid that killed a cop.
Meanwhile, the cop is still dead. A cop killer is in jail. Hopefully, he never has a free day for as long as he lives. That's the narrative.
I am not sure why anyone would look at this murderer's Internet presence other than to find fodder to lob at those they disagree with. He's a cop killer. That's his identity from here on.
