Anyone calling 911 and thinking they are getting anything other than a bunch of thugs that will choatically escalate what ever situation you are in, I'm sorry.

    It’s always nice knowing the police in America will show up five hours after a crime has been committed, accuse you of said crime, then leave while doing nothing.

    In the US there's a hotline you can call before calling the police.

    But then it’s still the police who will show up and be excited to shoot you. “Person is suicidal, so they are ready with lethal force! Lock and load!”

    Not necessarily. The hotline staff are trained to deal with it over the phone if at all possible. They do not just call the police.
