Thanks guys. Obviously I agree, but just wanted the unbiased opinion. To be fair, I probably wasn't as crystal clear as I'm being here, but it wasn't too bad, and when my wife took over, I thought "damn, that is as clear as day" lol. I guess the dispatcher just got stuck on the "man at door - send cops!" vibe and didn't pay enough attention or believe the relevant details from the prior encounter.

OC is getting bad too - panhandlers and con artists approach me frequently as I'm walking to/from stores, and there's lots of theft. Still not as bad as LA of course, but I think we're bridging the gap!
