Reply to comment by Certain_Scene_2359 in Lost airpods and filed a police complaint after. Is there any hope? by Certain_Scene_2359

Lol not sure if this post is real. Anyway, in the U.S., the police typically don't investigate or try to solve small-scale theft like this, such as thefts under $1,000.

If you see how many stolen bike posts there are on this Sub and how few are solved by police, you'll know what I mean.

But Protip: If you have Renter's or Homeowner's Insurance you can likely file a theft claim and get your money back to buy new AirPods!

Wonder why what you say is true?

I didn’t realize Bostonians hate the police so much until I posted about the 3 states troopers who all died in one week. I got only 1 single comment.

Just curious as to why??

cops are rude, insecure, trite, dishonest and belligerent, and they are an organized, government sanctioned gang of people who wield power to kill and punish unethically and without consequence.

I totally get what your saying in a very small minority of police.

You sure your not talking about Governors, congressman and women, and senators. Sure sounds like them too.

well, it's not a small minority, but also the rest of them protect the worst of them, which makes them just as bad.

Thanks for that insight! And damn, I should look into the renters insurance thingy, but the AirPods were stolen from the gym, so not sure if that would be applicable to me

If you had renters insurance unless you paid for a low deductible plan it wouldn’t have been worth your time. I pay for a low deductible, high value plan just in case I get robbed or something. But a lot of plans have a $500 deductible. And a lot of terms and conditions.

You'll pay $250 deductible to get the air pods back from renters insurance. So just go buy a new pair
