I was working with the Highway Patrol the other day and they will honestly take down any bastard that disrupts the community.
That charge is on you to save your ass when some nut is coming at you.
Sounds a bit like double talk though, unless they can opt you into the “community” or out of it at will.
And the point here seems to be that even if the police COULD actually respond to your plight, and DID get an unmistakable alert that they were needed, there is ZERO liability on them (other than political backlash) if in fact they don’t come and help.
The cops whom are the good guys are at least 10 minuets from my home and probably a few minutes more. If violence comes to my home I am the protector of my family. The cops will just do the paper work when they arrive. Hopefully I will be the winner in the contest against evil.
I am armed anyplace it is legal. My home is armed to the teeth. My gentle dogs will lay down their life for me and family. They are actually very sweet but they know what a bad guy is. Each is 80 pounds of teeth and fury if you are a bad guy. They will lick the hand of a stranger once I show friendship. They stand guard until I say it is okay.
Dogs are smart. Good dogs and proficiency with firearms is the best damn insurance you can buy until the cops arrive.
I like my dogs.
When seconds count, the police are only minutes away.
