Not surprised. I tried calling in a dwi driver a few months ago and it took 10 minutes just to get to a call taker. Crime is way up and there isn't enough first responders or call takers.
Y'all screaming, "Defund the police", y'all are genius for sure They're underfunded already, they're way too busy to work Order food and call the cops, see what reaches you first By Tom MacDonald Song: Fake Woke
And apparently when you don't defund them, since they're not defunded. And moving funding to other agencies won't help since other agencies aren't allowed to help until police arrive; the paramedics were there, but not allowed to help her. And you're whining about "defunding". Bet you whine about taxes too.
PS Dallas PD hasn't been defunded if this happend in Washington your argument would be reasonable. This is a "republican funded" red city, red state PD that are underfunded cause nobody wants to pay taxes.
@M VB Yeah I just looked that up I was about to change that. The city council has refused all attempts to defund the police so that's not the reason for this delay. I'm liberal but strongly against defunding the police. In this case the operator not the LEO is at fault. I could only imagine if you take 13 minutes to dispatch you're probably not communicating to the LEO the urgency so he can hit the lights and make that 8 minutes instead of 9.
@@EricK-tb2dn You try to talk sense to this idiots and they dont get it. Calling for defunding doesnt mean its happening. Its no excuse for the 911 operators and the Police to not do their job. If they dont want to work they should quit. In what other job do you get to refuse to do your function and still get to get paid ??
More defunding right! Doesn't all that funding just weigh down the cars or something? Less funding, less weight, faster driving. Isn't that what all the fuss was about?
What defunding? And what would you switch funding to? Kinda hard to defund something underfunded and moving funding to another agency ... well, the paramedics were already there, waiting on the police to show up.
Maybe if there were more law enforcement on duty or in the academies that would not be a problem. If Democrats are leading this country in the funding the police that is what you're going to get. Until then every man woman and child needs to learn how to be their own first responder and defender !!!!
