RE: 911 Calls Ignored, Dozens Died Because Police Dept Was Getting Wasted During Hurricane

in #news6 years ago (edited)

Police are under no legal obligation to protect anyone not in their custody.
The supreme court has reaffirmed this principle many times. You can't sue the police for not protecting you. You have a right to bear arms.

You are correct. Police are mainly used as revenue collecting soldiers for the state. I hope this article helps everyone realize how their tax dollars go to waste. Whenever a politician says the police are so great, think about who they serve. We should tell them all to get off government welfare.

The police are pretty handy when someone is being too noisy though.

Bear arms?! What are we supposed to do? Shoot the hurricane in self defense? Lol This is why the police need to be privatized.

what did people want the police to do about a hurricane? the police need to be privatized so that they can party all they want and ignore calls without having to tell anyone about it?

If they don't answer the phones they won't know what people needed. Private workers might lose their job if they got drunk on the clock and shirked their responsibilities. Unlike public police.
