Man arrested, charged with misuse of 911 system

A DeLand man, who police say called 911 multiple times to talk about random topics such as Hitler and Jews, was arrested and charged with misuse of the 911 system.

According to the police report, Michael Gilman, 28, called the emergency line five times in five hours on Saturday after he was asked not to call unless it was an emergency.

A DeLand police officer was then sent to a home on Becca Lane, where he heard Gilman still talking to the dispatcher "about Hitler and Jews," police said.

When the officer asked Gilman was he was doing, Gilman said that he was "...talking to your dispatcher, because I'm bored," according to the police report.

Gilman was taken to Volusia County jail.

“The time has come,” 911 said,
“To talk of many things:
Of shoes—and ships—and sealing-wax—
Of cabbages—and kings—
And why the sea is boiling hot—
And whether pigs have wings.”

That’s what talk radio and the Internet are for.

Boston had a city councilor, iirc, that drunk-called 911, looking for his boyfriend on a weekend night. And kept calling.

No doubt he'll claim that Da Jooz put him in jail.

“to talk about random topics such as Hitler and Jews”

That doesn’t seem so “random”. Looks to me like he’s got a theme going...

I have been known to do many things when bored which I have been lately. A favorite is singing along with the cat.

As of yet, calling 911 is not one of the thing I do when bored.

[Slings and Arrows]

I’ll have to try the cat thing.

So can we blame the Jews for this one? Or do we have to blame Hitler?

You too?

I belt out George Strait opera-style when I'm bored. (I thought everyone did...)

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Don’t try to hit higher notes then the cat unless you want to sprain your spleen.

The Cops just got him a laptop and logged him on to FR.

He’s posting here now (from the Volusia County Jail.)
The game is on to guess his new screen name from all the recent sign ups.
