‘Being Mad At A Presidential Candidate Is NOT A Reason To Call 911’: Police
5 News ^

Posted on 09/27/2016 7:39:06 AM PDT by TigerClaws

LAWRENCE, Kan. — Some people just can’t wait to talk politics — prompting a Kansas police department to ask people to stop misusing the 911 system.

The tweet from their official account reads:

We realize politics can make emotions run high, but being mad at a presidential candidate in a debate is NOT a reason to call 911.”

It’s not yet clear how many residents chose to call 911 instead of tweeting or posting on Facebook, nor what those individuals hoped the police might do for them.

In an apparent effort to head off emergency calls later this evening, Lawrence police also warned against drinking games based on the highly-anticipated debate.

Specifically, the department strongly discourages anyone drinking every time a certain candidate says “yuge.”

What I’d like to know is that if this police department or whoever controls it actually had any verified idiot calls to back up their “concern caution.”

Give me some examples with names or take a hike Lawrence.

Let me guess: despondent liberals cutting their wrists and about to jump out of windows.

Actually, I think “Big League” was the winner over “Yuge” last night.

Here is a link to another article which shows the actual tweets. Lawrence, KS is horribly liberal and it shows in the PD tweets, IMO.

I can’t believe people can be so irresponsible as to call 911 for something like this. I only call 911 when they screw my order up at the drive through.

For those who don’t know, Lawrence is probably the most liberal town in Kansas, sort of our version of Madison, WI.

Trust me, Lawrence, KS is more to the left than Berkeley, CA!

It is the home of the University of Kansas and has so many leftist professors who just love Marxism and turn their students into good little commies!

It read to me like politics, pure and simple. The mention of “yuge” was the main purpose, IMO.

Maybe the callers wanted the po-po to arrest Hillary.

Lighten up, Francis.

For liberals, the comment was fairly witty!

I’m speaking only for myself but if I were the police chief of Lawrence, I’d do everything I could to see that charges were filed against whoever called 911 because they were mad at a certain candidate.

911 is for serious business - life and death business. Anyone with half a brain (even a liberal) should know that.

I’d want the offender to completely understand what he/she/it did wrong. Pressing charges and maiing the offender go thru the court system is a good way to do that. They’ll never call 911 again for frivolous reasons.
