A special 911 for CEOs who feel threatened
(slrpnk.net)
323 school shootings at K-12 this year
All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.
I'm confused. Was there another CEO killed or harmed? Or was it still just the one? I mean, if CEOs were falling like flies in NY state, then I guess it would make sense to have a special hotline for a task force or something.
But if it's still a tiny number of CEOs, then something like this would be a giant waste of government resources.
Sometimes, wasting government resources is the point.
The only other one I know of is Bob Lee, the Cash App one a year and a half ago. The circumstances were completely different however, as His brother-in-law stabbed him in a 'scuffle' after Bob supposedly became manic (from drugs and/or alcohol) and attacked the guy.
The case has been ongoing since, though the jury is supposed to read a verdict in a little under 7 hours (9:30am PST)

Then again, journalists are mostly fair game.

Where's the onion logo?
Satire is dead. Not enough CEOs have followed suit.
Errr...you guys have to wait on hold on 911? This isn't just a joke?
Where I live not only do we get put on hold but sometimes they don't answer (not enough dispatchers) and response time (except for shop lifters which is quick response) is about 4.5 hours for serious stuff and 72 hours, if they do show up according to my own experience and those I know in the community.
Their budget is right over $4 Billion/year. The area I live in gives a boost of around $60 mil/year on top for expanded help so we don't have to have our own city PD.
Also I wanted to add it's the Sheriff, so we do contribute to the 4 bill/year via county tax like everyone else and are in their jurisdiction already.
Fantastic return on investment.
Wtf? You're us-american, right? 4.5hrs? Why even call at all. Makes it totally useless.
At one store of mine, robberies were regular. I had an automatic alarm,which called for cops and they were there not 3 minutes later. Granted their station was just 3 minutes away, but still. Robbers usually managed to find a general direction for what they wanted by that time. But I always had pristine new windows thanks to that 😁
4.5hrs...i could've gone there myself. After watching a movie, meeting some friends, doing the taxes and....
There's a thread of legitimacy to "defending oneself and their property" in the US sure to how poor response times are, but honestly, it's just stuff. Why risk killing someone or getting killed?
The distinctly inept class-traitors known as cops are understood to really only be there to file paperwork for insurance. Lock your good stuff up in a real safe with time controls.
It's more common in high population areas, but it does happen.
The obsession with running government services like a business results in some notions about efficiency where someone getting paid to work and not being busy all the time is worse than people regularly waiting for critical time sensitive assistance.
It also has the zesty side effect of making the dispatch operators overworked and rushed. This usually just manifests as mistakes, but sometimes results in anger and critical mistakes. The famous example of the operator who yelled at a kid for calling because his mom had a seizure in the bath and she didn't believe him comes to mind.
People's opinion on insurance: "boy am I glad that's there if I ever need it"
Their opinion on having extra dispatchers to pick up bursts of activity: "why the fuck are we paying them to sit around"
Both of those things are stuff you pay for but may never need, but only one of them is a human and that's the one we get upset about.
Just wow. I mean everyone has a really shitty day and stuff can happen,we're all just human. But dispatcher is one of those jobs that should never be understaffed nor overworked. Like docs or nurses or EMTs or.... Jeez...
Yes, in some jurisdictions this is common.
Legit, i thought that thing in only murders was just a bit
And now the rich get their own military for use against the citizens
They've always had it.
That's it, I'm founding my own LLC so I can be a CEO
I would be ok with this if the working class has a say in a daily wait music and elevator music for the corpo buildings.

I am still pissed at Trevor Noah that he paraded the corrupt criminal reactionary ex-cop Eric Adams around as some sort of great achievement for black people, after Adams won the mayor election in NYC.

In a sense I suppose you're right, but now you'll see it far more readily deployed, even on a whim

Well, being a CEO should be considered suicidal ideation. We already have a hotline for that.
don't the police normally setup hotlines for these sorts of things all the time? Including tips for investigations?
This isn't a second 911, this is a subsection of 911 intended for threats against people.
What jobs did those kids create? They still can't even find their bootstraps.
