From the actual article, “The police wouldn’t comment on Chapel’s decision to encourage armed baristas, said Spokane Police Department spokeswoman Monique Cotton. “We would encourage anyone in any situation to call us. We have excellent response times.” “
“The police arrived on scene in three minutes on Feb. 18 and 28 and in four minutes on March 16.”
Well good for them.
I usually plan my safety according this:
“Dial 911 and Die”

A response time of three minutes? Four minutes?
When seconds count, the police are minutes away.
