He shoulda told them he was a depressed soldier with suicidal thoughts. They would have come right away and "taken care of" everything. No time to play any constitutional bullshit, either.

I am completely disgusted on so many levels. This should never have happened. As a former 911 operator and dispatcher, I can say decisively that protocol was ignored in this ungodly situation.

I was a hostage 20 years ago, and the whole process was a sad, sad joke. In the end I disarmed the guy and put him in restraints myself. The SWAT guys milled around outside burning butts and blabbering on their radios. When they finally came in I called them effing sissies, and they wanted to arrest me. I then said, I SEEN HOW YOU OPERATE, YOU AINT GOT THE BALLS TO ARREST ME.

Oh, you big manly (internets) man, you!




That whole tragedy is just heartbreaking. It doesn't sound like the police could have arrived soon enough to stop it (if it happened immediately after she called) but the fact that her calls for help were completely ignored is completely reprehensible.
