Tolerant of some mad man shouting angrily outside your door?
Man up and do something about it or call the cops, just ignoring it hoping it goes away is a pretty vaginal course of action.
Correction: On his balcony. One floor up. Across the street.
Correction: just ignoring it and not giving a shit and/or letting the guy vent.

For the running test we took a van to a local high school (our tax dollars at work, fucking 7 recruiters came along for the ride when there were only 3 recruits). Along the way, the cops were not shy at talking shit about any people they saw on the streets during the drive (it's in a bad part of town).Yeah, I think I selectively chose not to remember that the APD is notoriously racist once you get into high-latino areas like Riverside.
I never had to worry about being pulled over when I lived there because the police were too busy stopping hispanic men for God knows what misdemeanors.
Goddamn that's a terrible thing to say
They definitely looked down on any underprivileged and non-mainstream people they saw, and even though we were recruits (or maybe because of it) they were shameless about indoctrinating us into the mindset of the APD. Two of the recruits were country white guys, so they fit right in.

Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Good job, a life which could have possibly been saved was lost on account of you not giving a shit.
The opposite could have also happened. Your retroscope doesn't give any reason to approach the same presenting situation any differently in the future.

There is absolutely no possible likelihood of that having happened.Not your fault. If he really did lose his job and was venting for example, and you called the cops on him - it might have been the last straw and made him jump.
Archangel is right. Calling the authorities and actually confronting the situation is the best course of action.
Edit: When did insane hypothetical scenarios become the basis for an argument?
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
I wouldn't say that. It'd say it's no less likely than someone having another person (yes, taking this assumption would mean that we theorised that there was another person in the house that we did not know about) in their house dead, then screaming for five hours from his balcony without calling for help or leaving the house.
Again.. retroscope at work here. You're more likely to believe that someone died in his house because it happened.

Thinking "There's someone screaming like a maniac next door, maybe someone is in trouble" is not the same as "There's someone screaming like a maniac next door, I better ignore it in case he jumps off his balcony" holy shit man.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
Definitely. My scenario wasn't to be used as a "reason" to not engage the man, it was to highlight that the engagement itself wasn't necessarily going to end positively.
By the way, I'd replace "scream" with "swear/curse" there, as that's what Enkoujin wrote. Screaming implies panic to the degree that they didn't even formulate a proper word.
A man saying "FUUCK.. FUUUUCK.... (5hrs later).. FUUUUUCK" gives a different angle to the situation.

About the time Naruto got its own sub forum.
I think Buff is right at least initially. A guy just cursing over and over is not going to get much of a reaction out of me. The problem is that it continued for over 5 hours. A half hour I can understand maybe even an hour but anything beyond that is just completely unreasonable.
Don't be too hard on yourself. Based on what you said even if you had called the cops right away it wouldn't have changed the outcome much, given that the woman was already dead. Don't focus on the fact that someone died across the street from you either, such things happen. Death is one of those things that can really unhinge people especially if they feel they are somehow responsible.

I don't appreciate other people who I don't know trying to make their problems into my problems. Learn to deal with your own shit. I deal with mine without involving you.

Don't ever call the cops for any reason.
American mentality at its best, i swear the police is worse than the criminals around there for the way you people keep bashing them.
Yeah, because people become cops solely because they want to help people. How naive of you.

Lol I wonder if he gets robbed if he is still going to adhere to that

I think he's trying to make fun of me since I want to be a cop but I don't like to help people. I've discussed this with buddies before and my reasoning is that my primary motive for becoming a cop is not to help people, but to be able to punish them when they fuck up.

Wow, just like that my hope for you died.
Why don't you become a judge or a corrections officer then because unless you plan on shooting or battering every criminal you encounter, you are not going to be dishing out much punishment.

Step 1) Don't call the cops.
Step 2) Smoke some weed.
Edit:
Wahh? I missed this conversation. So Abdula got over that crippling problem of his that he assured us no mortal being could comprehend?

Step 3) Doctor Who
