One of these days, an ordinary citizen. Rosario does not stop.
RC
an ordinary citizen, 50 years old, married with three school-age children, is getting ready to go to work and as you enter at 7 pm is mid am waiting for public transport at 6 : 30 in Rioja and Spain Street. A cold winter day, drizzle, and with it are found in 3 individuals stop but, at first glance have the same expected mobile. As schedules are irregular collective R. making the phone from his pocket to send sms and find out "when it" almost immediately a young man of "cap and hood" out of nowhere and you swipe the phone, running away, stunned RC slow to react and their occasional companions at each other and do nothing, ignore it completely, one stretches his neck just to see if the bus comes. RC thief runs behind at high speed, but as drizzle falls on St. Louis street, hitting his face on the street and bleeding rejoined the thief is running a few blocks. Almost giving up warns it enters a tenement in St. Louis street and almost San Martin. Comes to the door, it demolished the whole is semi open looks, he sees a dark courtyard, gray, dirty, hung arap, several look at it with hamstring, austere, undeterred by the run that made you entered. Hears a threatening voice: "Daddy, do not go here, Stop fooling around." back then. And think of the street at that moment a shower long dense, almost endless, nothing could be seen by the rain. Call 911, but with what? Look at the police checkpoint located on the corner, there is nobody. A few steps and into a bar asking for a phone or some help. Ignore it, and warn that he was wetting the floor. In the distance, watch the flashing lights of a patrol car, he runs to meet him. The police can not act without him will make the report exposed - "But is there" screaming RC almost losing control of his nerves. The officer, angrily warned not to yell at the authority! RC looks at his watch: it is late to work, you DECONT presenteeism. Makes a complaint with the police in the area, but the investigating judge is presented Busy: I wait 3 hours. He was taking the report, which seems an inquiry, as RC was to give all technical details of the cell, color, make, if he had stuck stickers, if they were Kitty or Winnie Pohh, etc, to explain that to the at that time, detailing where he works, etc, etc, etc. Ask if they will do something in the tenement, a raid maybe they answer that the judge will decide what, maybe in 72 hours. Hopefully. "How is that?" Question. - You will answer a call ...- out not understood the name every time it is asked RC - and wipe that face. He said a policeman. Look in the mirror in the waiting room and had a deep cut of whack when you fall. Two hours later he comes home, calls the work and knows what happened, ask copy of the report which is failing to get, RC calls it sends to the ART, are denied as there was an accident, you must cover the costs of its pocket. And while you discount the day, present, and alerts you to train a new guy to take his place in 2 months (?).- RC. had not yet finished paying his cell phone and had theft insurance, which does not respond. Consultation with a lawyer to sue the CIA that he sold the phone, it charges the query $ 100, and warns that the onset of action for damages would start about $ 1,000 but before that he must make an assurance evidence will come out the same. Appalled by the costs, which he earns only $ 3,000 per month, attends the consumer protection office in calle Alem, treating him after 3 hours of waiting, no employees is an attorney, I advise: consult an attorney. RC gives up everything. It goes home. And cries of helplessness .- A character in the radio to run for office any officer says: "We are well, let's get together." RC outlines a crazy laugh .-
