Some of the responses in this video are simply tragicomic. They tell the questioner that they need to leave their home, get some bleach or ammonia, let the perp see you on the phone, etc.

When asked how long it would take to get a firearm he is told that it will be three months to a year. When asked what he should do in the interim the answer is the same, "You're on your own."

Other portions of the video show the police telling the questioner that response times are from two minutes to “Sometimes we can’t be anywhere at all because everybody’s tied up.”

We, here at TFL, already know this. The attitudes of the states where this was filmed is legion. Anyone who has called 911 in a life threatening situation knows the agony of waiting for the police to arrive.

It is disturbing to hear this come from the mouths of those we call in those situations.
