911: What’s your emergency?
ME: There’s people here breaking my front window, they just lit my car on fire, and they are throwing firebombs into my house.
911: We’ll send a cruiser out. It might take a little while...the police are busy tonite.
ME: BANG, BANG BANG. Reload.
911: “But in any event, make no effort to defend your family nor property. Officers may arrest you for disturbing the peace or worse.”
When seconds count, police are only minutes away.
