Another city fails and falls.

Wow. So if a woman gets raped...is the guy still raping you...no. OK, we'll have telephone reporting handle it.

Oh, so there's a drive-by shooting? Ok, is it still ongoing...no...ok you can report that online.

And this is exactly why you need to have a means to protect yourself...because ain't nobody coming to help you.

There’s probably less paperwork involved in waiting to respond until after the person calling has been murdered, than before.

> officers will only respond to calls of in-progress emergencies <

Moral of the story: If you’re going to burglarize a house in Pittsburgh, or shoplift, or whatever… be quick about it. Don’t hang around.

Anyway, I suspect this will cause a drop in crime statistics. Mainly because folks will eventually realize it’s not worth the time to call in a report.

Courts ruled years ago that law enforcement officers are not responsible to the protection of people.

Is it an “in-progress emergency” when the Pittsburgh city government is such an incompetent kakistocracy that its police will only respond to calls of in-progress emergencies?!?

You nailed it in a few lines.

Bet if a gun owner protects himself / herself the cops will show up quickly.

Pittsburgh has no excuse. They knew who they were hiring.

Pittsburgh simply joins other failed Democrat cities where the residents learned to call the Fire Department instead of the cops.

Ironically, the bar fight scene in the first Jack Reacher movie shows the Pittsburgh cops showing up to a street fight about one minute after it commenced.

Remind me to stay out of Pittsburgh...

Well, unless I’m going there to be a criminal... That could be a good career move.
