If your mom gave you a piece of furniture you'd be perfectly in your rights to destroy it. Even as an egregious false equivalency this doesn't work.

My experience with my restraining order is that the cops will do as little as possible (which is usually nothing) until you go down to the station with an attorney. Mine was served very quickly but they didn't take any violations seriously until my lawyer got involved.

Are you a cop? You've gotta tell me if you're a cop. If you're a cop, you, ah, gotta tell me.
