“I’m not sure I actually have captured the entire question, but it does occur to me that one thing that I thought about from time to time is that maybe you have some kind of constitutional right to have a cell phone with a predialed 911 number at your bedside,
....and that might provide you with a little better protection than a gun, which you’re not used to using,” Stevens said.

You have seconds to decide....

Seconds to act & protect your loved ones....
...Perhaps seconds to live...

And the 9-1-1 response is only minutes away...

Hizzoner needs a reality check...

One thing I learned doing dispatch work for the police .... no matter how fast you are in dispatching the officers and considering that a police car is rarely in the immediate vicinity where it would do some good (like parked in the victim's driveway) so it takes some minutes at best to get to the scene, it is up to John Q. citizen to protect himself when in a situation where time is not a luxury and where seconds make the difference between life or death. Me .... I'd rather have a gun than a cell phone for self-defense.
