It comes in droves

Seriously, is it just my heightened man-fear-hatred right now that is making me notice all these problems, or is shit just raining from the sky right now? Here's the latest scary man story I have.

A new but good friend of mine lives in a big apartment building. She has a friend who lives on the same floor, but different apartment. That friend, whom we will call X, has an ex-boyfriend who is an undocumented immigrant from Jamaica. He started getting scary, and was trying to break into X's apartment, so X moved in with my friend and her roommate. A few weeks ago he did enter X's apartment when she wasn't there. They called the cops and the cops said they couldn't do anything about it until the guy physically harmed someone. She was able to get a restraining order, but we all know how successful those are.

So last week he figures out she is staying with my friend and he starts trying to get into their apartment. Last night at 4 am he broke down their door and tore the place up. My friend and her roommate are hiding in a bedroom with the door locked waiting for the police to come. Thankfully, X was somewhere else at the time. The cops arrive as he is leaving the building and he is arrested. He will hopefully be deported (can't believe I would ever say 'I hope someone is deported' but in this case I do). He is in jail now, and my friend spent the morning at the police station getting a restraining order and cancelling all credit cards, etc etc.

I'm so angry and freaked out.
