I heard these stories on the news in the past few days and thought they were ****ed up enough to post.
1. I forget where but a mother and daughter lived in the top story of a duplex. Beneath them lived the owner of the duplex and HER daughter. One day the top story women noticed two armed men walk up to the front door and break in. They heard screaming and violence downstairs and called the police. The dispatcher said the police were on the way. The two women upstairs climbed onto their roof to hide because the only way out of the house was via stairs past the lower floor where the intruders were. The screaming and violence went on for 3 hours during which time the women on the roof saw 3 squad cars pass the building without stopping. They kept calling 911 to see where the cops were and the dispatcher kept saying they were on their way. Eventually a squad car stopped and knocked on the door. The screaming and violence stopped and the women on the roof lost sight of the cop, so they assumed the coast was clear. But in reality the cop just knocked on the door, no one answered, and he left. Without realizing the cop was gone the two women went downstairs and were captured by the assailants and repeatedly raped at gunpoint for the remainder of the day, just like what had been happening to the women downstairs. I don't recall how everyone escaped but apparently they did and spent several weeks in the hospital. After they healed they sued the cops and LOST. The judge cited that there is no law that holds police liable for the well being of citizens.
I say that any government who outlaws my right to protect myself or family using the justification that gun-free zones / laws and the police are enough SHOULD be held liable when there are victims as a result of the failure of those laws / zones / lack of police.
2. This one is shorter. It was a woman who was home alone and heard an intruder break in to her house. She hid in the closet and called 911 while she listened to the intruder ransack her house. The dispatcher said that all the officers in the area were on other calls and it could be a while before they get there, so just stay in the closet and be quiet and the intruder would probably leave shortly on his own. 15 minutes later he was still ransacking the house so she called 911 back and said that she had a gun to protect herself. The dispatcher said to hang tight, she was dispatching someone immediately and sure enough there was a cop there arresting the perp in 10 minutes.
WTF??? Who were they protecting? The woman or the perp???
