The last suggestion is pretty bad. Interfering with an abusive relationship can make you a target of the abuser. Trying to intercede in such is really not something one should try to do casually, without having a good idea what you are doing. A lot of this strikes me as not unreasonable. Some people are for abolishing the police due to their track record that is rather unevenhanded when it comes to race. If you are in a community of color and are worried about police negatively impacting it, suggestions to physically go to the station to get the report you need rather than asking police to come to you is hardly extremist behavior. I also had someone "helpfully" call the cops on me while I was homeless because they were supposedly "concerned" about me. The result: I was warned to not walk in the bicycle lane on a stretch of road with no sidewalk on that side of the road, something lots or people routinely did. Thereafter, I had to go out of my way to walk on the other side of the road where there was a sidewalk so that I wouldn't get ticketed if the same cop happened to see me in that bike lane again. Thanks, asshole who was "concerned" and called the cops on me. Do you treat your mother or grandmother this way? "Oh, mom is walking somewhere that looks dangerous. Let's call the cops!!!"
