I probably should have added a description. This is "undercover" video by James O'Keefe (started when he exposed ACORN). This one asked various police agencies from NY to NC what we should do after calling 911 until the police show up.

You bet I am on my own. To give credit to my city PD, on none emergency line they were here in less than 10 mins. Still too much time, but still better than 30 mins to 1 hr. I would say, I can repulse any attack that does not include armored vehicles or hellfire missiles/

there you go!

I need to print this.

I only listened to about half the video, but the biggest problem I heard in that segment of it was that the responders seemed more concerned with their authority than the citizen's safety.

Not all LEO deserves their shiny badge. Should I say more?

When I called Ft Worth because some dopehead shot at me, the 911 operator could hear the shots and hear them hitting the house. They took over an hour to show up and did nothing after they arrived. On the other hand, I have been stopped by Ft Worth many, many times for random vehicle inspections, 7 days in a row once. Imo, anyone who thinks that calling 911 will protect them is extremely foolish.

Sounds like an interesting topic for another thread.

Anyone who thinks they are safe just because they have a good police department is a fool. It's 2 minutes drive (at legal speeds) from my house to the local police station. 2 minutes too long when seconds count.

2 min drive. Then add prep time and notification time if anyone is immediately available.

Same deal here; I'm about 2 minutes from the local police substation - I would bet my life that it more likely that the police will pull my wife over for speeding in the neighborhood - again , than it is for them to make it to my house in time to stop a home invasion.
