There was a tornado today and it absolutely rocked the apartment complex next to my duplex and fricking tore it apart. Well of course there's still shite all over the place, including a piece of the roof on top of my roof.

Well, I came home from work at like 4:30 today and there was cops and emergency people still here cleaning and shite and I walked straight into my house and haven't left. About 20 minutes ago a cop came to my door asking me to leave because more inclement weather may be coming through the area tonight.

I have electricity and I have a ton of shite in here that I obviously don't want to leave, partly because I have nowhere to go. I'm a single guy and my parents live 140 miles away and I have work tomorrow. Literally no one has told me that the house is unsafe other than the cops who are saying they advise I leave.

My questions are......

A. Can the cops make me leave my house?
B. Would you leave?

Just tell them that you're staying.

You shouldn't need advice on that one.

Do they have any authority to make me leave?

They've knocked like every 10-minutes for the last hour asking me if I'll leave and I keep telling them I have nowhere to go.

What are you getting all pissy about?

Sounds like they're just looking out for your well-being. But, no, they cannot make you leave your house.

1-they scoped out your house and there is something in there they want

2-they need somewhere to do blow and hookers

3-just go outside in your underwear, smoking a cigarette, and carrying an assault rifle and tell em you ain't leaving

Tell them that you're not leaving and ask them to please stop asking.

"Officer, I am not leaving. Please stop asking. I am not going to answer the door again. Thank you for your concern."

I'm not sure if they have authority, but I doubt it.

Not mad at all. The cop was super cool, but the fact that they keep coming back is starting to get pretty damn annoying. I'm trying to watch LOST and they keep fricking it up.

They're all dead.

Now, just put a note on your door saying that you will be staying, and to please not knock, as you're in the middle of dismembering your neighbor.

Unless there is a public tornado shelter they can send you to, tell the dumbass cops you are safer in a storm in your house than not.
