Today, some troopers forced my family out of our house with no shoes or enough clothing. Even the baby was half naked. We were told we can't go back for at least another 12 hours. Why? Because my mental neighbor was shooting at the house. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, at 6 a.m., the cops burst into our home. My husband was slammed to the ground and I had a gun pointed at me. I was naked and eight months pregnant. We had moved in the day before, they were coming to arrest the previous tenant. FML
Today, police knocked on my door in middle of the night. They said there was a fire in one of the houses in our street, so they were evacuating houses. They wouldn’t let me go back and get dressed. As I was only in my underwear, they told me I could wait in their car. FML
Today, the police came to my house and arrested me. Why? The neighborhood kids thought it would be fun to hide behind my house and shoot at people with paintball guns. People saw it coming from my house and called the police. I was fired from work, due to missing it without notice. No excuses. FML
Today, I'm hiding in my own house, because my crazy neighbor wants to "play." Yesterday when I agreed, she made me spend the whole day with her, then burst into tears when I had to leave. She's been waiting outside for over two hours. FML
Today, the house I squat in with my punks got sold. The fascist fucker showed up with a baseball bat, two mean dogs, and a shotgun, and ordered us out. Now we're back to sleeping in our old van until we can find a new place. FML
Today, our landlord showed up with police and legal paperwork that let him throw us out immediately. Apparently my husband has been ignoring eviction notices for months and having vicious arguments with the landlord. Now we’re homeless and everything we own is in storage. FML
Today, I came home from work to find that my neighbor's trash bins were still on the curb. While returning the bins to her backyard, her kid ran out and shot me with a paintball gun. Multiple times. He thought I was a burglar and ruined my new suit. FML
Today, I walked out of my house wearing only boxers, only to be greeted by kids with paintball guns. FML
Today, my neighbor called the cops on me, claiming I'd threatened him with a gun. Despite zero proof, they took me to the station and gave me hell. I guess what I've learned today is that you should never offend your crazy neighbor by breaking up with his daughter. FML
Today, I came home to see my house trespassed, vandalized, and looted by my cousin, whom I have always hated, and his friends. As I get the cops to haul them to jail, he got kicked out from home for the Nth time and said my mom invited them. When I confronted my mom about it, she dismissed it saying, "He's family!" FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'd rather be half naked and alive than fully clothed and dead, but that's just me 🤷🏽♀️. See if you guys can stay at a friends house for a while until the situation has been diffused.

Why 12 hours to take out a shooter? ******' cops! When it comes to ticketing mild-mannered civilians for rolling a stop sign, they're ******' Bruce Willis and Clint Eastwood rolled into one. But when it comes to protecting people from real danger, they'll cower in armored vehicles until the villain runs out of bullets!

This is why it's important to have a emergency to go bag with clothes, food, water, money, meds, first aid kit, a lighter and a hatchet or portable wood saw just in case you need to evacuate at a moment's notice.

And don't forget the towel.

I'm pretty sure the troopers didn't make you all stand out in the cold. I would assume they took care of you.

American?

Probably not. Canadian I assume, we don’t have “troopers”.

Definitely not Canadian; law enforcement officers are called cops, RCMP, or Mounties here.

State troopers are a thing in america

Especially in the south. Which would explain why standing outside half naked would be an FML. While it’s hot, you’ll also get a real bad sunburn.

And waiting 12 hours will make him stop how? Why can't they just arrest the psycho?
musicfanatic301 7
Probably because it’s a white male that’s doing the shooting.

Better to be half dressed than dead, yeah?
