No, they fucking don’t. When I came home to a burgler actively in my fucking apartment I called 911 and the police didn’t show up for four fucking hours.
The US has absolutely awful police forces with terrible incentives.

Within the U.S. criminal justice system, criminal cases can be cleared (or closed) one of two ways. The first is through arrest… The second way a case can be closed is through what is called exceptional means, where law enforcement must have either identified the offender, gathered enough evidence to arrest, charge, and prosecute someone, identified the offender’s exact location, or come up against a circumstance outside the control of law enforcement that keeps them from arresting and prosecuting the offender
Only the rich? Do police not come when you call 911?

Which statement did I make that was wild? Because none of that contradicts anything I said.
I never made the claim that all or even most murders get solved.
