Same as Columbine; arrive in a flash and then stand there outside in all your fancy black os and robbers play clothes FOR HOURS as peoe get shot and slooooooowly bleed to death, begging for help.
I really do mean for HOURS.

More laws and fancy kook gear, more crime and killing
Yes I have heard of several deaths/murders that have occurred all while police were right outside. Waiting. Waiting for what? Till all the people who the killers wanted to murder are actually murdered and then the killers themselves commit suicide? What happened to the heroes who busted down doors, created diversions, trying to save innocent folks and go AFTER the bad guys?
Several years ago I called the police in the town we’d just moved to a year prior for a domestic issue. (daughter and son in law lived with us at the time) I waited for the cops on pins and needles for 20 minutes and then walked outside and lo and behold there’s a cop car sitting DOWN THE BLOCK. I walked over to him asking if he had the wrong address or what. He responds “No, just waiting for back-up, it’s procedure. Now in this instance nobody ended up getting hurt or killed, but they didn’t know that, and were apparently willing to take the chance that were it the case, they didn’t feel any urgency to stop it from happening.
Then again, maybe I’m asking too much and looking for heroes where I don’t have the right to expect them.
