Is a "we don't call 911" sign a real thing in America?

[–] SeaJ@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago

It's basically advertising that there are guns to steal in the house.

It's a real thing in Europe cause we call 112 or 999 if you're in the UK.

Yes. My neighbor has one. It’s so dumb.

Yes , and usually has a picture of a pistol pointing at the observer. Frequency of use varies from place to place.

My mom's neighbor has one. And by neighbor, I mean it's hanging on the door of a garage in the back of an alley, and his house is 10 minutes away. Not like he'd be there to call 911 most of the time anyway, I think I only saw him 3 times in 16 years of living there lol
