Pissed off by how many holidays she goes on?

She works part time in a minimum wage job and he’s unemployed ... yet they are probably on their 10th holiday of the year.

He’s a well known dealer in this area.

Just shit to see people benefiting from pretty much ruining lives

OP, we've reached a dead-end here.

You're annoyed about these people's lives but refuse to do anything about it and when people are telling you the obvious thing to do (report them), you're accusing them of living in 'middle class bubbles' and saying you hate the police.

What were you hoping to achieve? You've ruled out the obvious thing to do so now what?

This was never going to end well because you never had any intention of doing what everyone is suggesting.

Are you dumb? Put my own life at risk for nothing to happen? Great advice. Cheers.

I knew people who had police protection. Both are now dead. The police do not care.

If people think the police are thereto help and protect then you’re crazy.

OP I do understand, I lived in a council estate where everyone knew who the drug dealers were but the police didn’t give a fuck. But, most people here on mn are middle class and have no experience of that sort of life, so that’s why they don’t understand

Well what did you expect us all to say?! You complain about criminals so naturally we're all suggesting you go to the police....YOU are dumb for not realising how this thread would go and posting it in the first place

HaroldsSocalledBluetits · 22/06/2018 19:20

Maybe the OP thought - wrongly, as it turns out - that people would have more of a realistic view of drug infrastructure and personnel, the police and how vulnerable people are. I have to confess that I am myself rather surprised at how many on this thread appear to live on Acacia Avenue where a quick word with the local bobby will put to rest any niggles about undesirables and then everyone sleeps soundly and safely.

Think you need a hobby. Focus on your own life. None of your business.

Gemini69 · 22/06/2018 19:40

OP's dodgy friend knows she'll never report them.. so likely enjoys bragging about her holidays....

Rednailsandnaeknickers · 22/06/2018 20:31

MN is just about the most middle class, Acacia Avenue, avocado smashing, get a cleaner, have a spa day, worried that Oscar isn't picking up Mandarin as fast as Sebastian, bubble on the entire fucking web so god knows what OP expected?!

Don't get me wrong, I love MN and it's variety of topics and chats but Criminal Central it isn't. It was blatantly obvious that most folk would say "report them to the police" wasn't it Op? Confused

Zebra31 · 22/06/2018 20:42

I am unsure what Op expected. What else shouldpeople say? Was the Op expecting everyone to ignore the dealer and flame the dealers girlfriend for the holidays? I don’t believe MNs supposed middle class demographic has anything to do with it.

Op has three options

  1. go to the police
  2. move from the area
  3. carry on as she is

I think OP may have spontaneously combusted Hmm

Mammalamb · 23/06/2018 20:39

Op just wanted to vent. Nothing wrong with that

LuxeLisbon · 23/06/2018 20:49

.I think OP may have spontaneously combusted hmm

And why’s that?

I think it’s welrd you went looking for this thread just to post a pointless and bitchy comment.
