Emergency Call

We can see a point in the future where we actually answer calls like this:
  • Hebron, CT: 35-year-old Brian Poulin of Hebron was arrested Sunday after police said he called 911 several times and asked them to bring him beer.

    Poulin was charged with disorderly conduct.

    Police said he called 911 numerous times and told the dispatcher he was out of beer and asked them to pick up more for him.
It's an emergency to Mr. Poulin. And we want to respond to emergencies, right?

As a 911 operator:

I'd rather answer a 911 call, and have some drunk ask me for more beer, than listen to these f'n punk kids calling 911 constantly on their disconnected non-traceable cell phones and asking me to suck this, or lick that or you-wouldn't-even-believe-the-shit-these-brats-come-up-with!!!!

the beer comment might actually be funny

Squad, I'm an off-duty PO and I need an assist. Gimme a 12 pack and a wagon. I gotta go home.

Although you won't print this, I needed to get it out of my system.

I feel better now.

The worse part was the guy wanted to put the purchase on his L.I.N.K. card. Oh, can you grab me a few blunt cigars too.

Not sure about you, but it is a real emergency when you run out of beer in the middle of the night.

WTF!!! I call the police all the time to make my beer, booze, and smoke runs. I tell them I am an ODPO and I am in need of sustenance. Within a half hour, a squad pulls up with my package. Sometimes they even come in and have a few.

The only time I got in trouble was when some hair gel wearing Sergeant responded. He had too many muscles and tattoos and too little brains. He actualy got a CR# on me.

Now, I call for the Fire Department. They understand.

I would rather bring someone beer, than be asked to solve their problems in a matter of minutes that they took decades to create.

Besides, the department wants us all to be social workers - Wall-mart Greeters, so we might as well put the guns away, put on a smiley face button and politely ask to be shot by the next future doctor we see.

This city makes us respond to any call, no matter how asinine. As a side note, with 'me-too' clauses and all...

If we have to patrol looking for crime, how come CFD doesn't roam the streets looking for fires?

I'm done. 19d

He later found out that he could be bogus because his city sucks and is corrupt beyond repair, so he initiated a Complaint Register # against the responding officers because they didn't bring the beer. This just happened to be tenth no beer complaint initiated against these officers, and their pussy supervisors put them in a behavioral program. These officers were then dumped from their current unit of assignment and are now writing traffic citations to hard working people and gay alderman. However after writing a legit ticket to the gay alderman he was then dumped to midnights, and was later caught sleeping on the job, sparred, and then fired. Is there a Fireman's Test in the near future ? :)

Be aware that when you arrest someone for a D.C. because they called the police without lawful reason, you will be sued. Just ask the principal from Dyett Academy who received a 1.5 million dollar judgement.

How this any differnt from all the bullshit calls we get nowadays, and the incompetent dispatchers who don't get enough information but send police anyway. EXAMPLE: Call comes out of a vehicle driving at a high rate of speed weeving in and out of traffic. Of course the caller could ad a few key words like "GUN", or "HE/SHE" tried to run me off the road.

The poor beat car is assigned no where near the alleged incident which if these parties invovled were driving would still be driving.

So, here's the problem. If you wasted your time going and racing to get there, it's all bullshit, AND in the event you did get the vehicle cause Good Citizend gave Lic Plate to the dispatcher, what happens when you stop the vehicle? NOTHING! Why? Because the caller who was supposed to be in all this danger, never leaves a name or number so that if this alleged offender was captured, maybe they could be identified.

So, the caller who was really just mad because they had some road rage/traffic altercation with somoene calls and makes up a lie in their effort to "I'll show him/her".

How about we charge these callers!
How about the dispatchers not take this call unless a name is given and since its personal, traffic is moving, and if offeder is caught, what do you have? Nothing - No Victim!

Anyhoot, just a bullshit thought - Apologize.

I recently got sent to a domestic which was, as the narrative said, a six year old being disrespectful to momma. That beats the job I got of a 16yr old that refused to clean his room. But, it doesn't top the domestic I got that turned out to be a teenage girl who couldn't find her cellphone and wanted my partner and I to help look for it. Serve and protect, would you like fries with that?

I guess this is the most appropriate thread to ask this question---Last year while driving I had the vantage point of watching a private bambulance company throw their lights and siren on coming up to a red light, shook up some old people in a car, ended up causing an accident (fender bender)...they go through the light get to next block and shut everything off laughing their asses off, basically they were going nowhere. Last week, saw the same thing---rush hour, they throw on their lights and move through all the cars get a block away and shut lights and siren off. As a result, I never pull over for any non-government ambulances. Do CPD ever ticket these assholes for doing this?
