Go ahead, call a cop, for all the good it will do you.

Not quite sure what the point of the topic is?

That fact fails to surprise me at all.

So amuse me Seth, what is your point?

I'm afraid that if you need to ask, you're not worth explaining it to.

I suspect no one gets your point, Seth (except perhaps your Libbo buddy). What does slow cop response times have to do with terrorism? Are you suggesting that the citizenry should take up anti-terrorism? Or that we are all fucked no matter what we do? Or something else?

[Seth]

Seth, you should link your sources.

Why? I cited the source and author. You can do a web search can't you? I've got better things to do than make your life easier.

It's the expected protocol in any written sphere.

Expect the unexpected.

And in fact, you could be accused of (and potentially prosecuted for) copyright violation.

The author of the article is always cited, even though that's not legally required, and since the purpose of citing a news story is for commentary and criticism it falls under the Fair Use doctrine, so you're wrong again.

Everyone else quotes their sources. Don't be lazy and sloppy.

So do I, I just don't hotlink to the story, which is something that is merely an occasional practice here. I've got better things to do than make your life easier. You want to see the original, do your own google search. It's not rocket surgery.

Good god you're being dense.

Perhaps, or perhaps you haven't fully thought this through. The author may not be the copyright owner. The site that it is published on might be the copyright owner and might rely on ad revenue it generates by hosting that content on it's site.

Everyone else quotes their sources. Don't be lazy and sloppy.

Bullshit. Everyone hotlinks, except for scrumple. Don't be lazy and sloppy, and disrespectful to the copyright owners.

I've got better things to do than make your life easier. You want to see the original, do your own google search. It's not rocket surgery.

It's got nothing to do with me, Seth. It's got to do with due respect for the people who own the copyright and/or the people who are spending money to host the content on the web.

It must be because I'm a Marxizt.

I still don't get the point of the story as far as cops go. Do you want Gubment to stop Muslim terrorists, or do you want to do it all by yourself?

Is it very cryptic , normally Seth is advocating mass murder, mass poverty or generally just blowing things up but in this case I have absolutely no idea what he is talking about

I suspect he is simply trying to remove one of the standard legs of an anti-gun argument, that it is best to leave armed response to criminals to the professionals...

Ah that makes sense in an nonsensical sort of way, he thinking if so off reality sometimes it does need a bit of translating

It's not a binary choice.

I wouldn't expect that you would, you never have before. Ever.

Not if the reader has an iota of cognitive ability.

You're bothered by violence but you want somebody else to salve your fears and put their life on the line to make sure it doesn't happen to you.

I call that rank hypocrisy.

Very sensible if you ask me, join the army/police get to shoot/arrest people and get paid for it, negative side people may try and kill you

Someone people delivery mail, some make cars some people get shot at for a living

I don't think you have a single sensible thought in that tiny little pea brain of yours.

You actually think getting in shoot outs and arresting people is fun and games.

You gotta be shitting me.

Your grip on reality is non-existent.

You need to relax otherwise you might tumble from your comfy armchair and be forced to go outside for help. On second thoughts, perhaps you ought to pluck up your courage and go outside.
