Guns are for someone who has broken in your home, who you have positively identified as unidentified. Cops are for mischief outside your home. If you call the cops, the situation should be well beyond your control, expect violence. And once violoence is on the table, expect anything.tl;dr: If they’re not throwing lead or Texaco removedtails, call the the po-po.
Anyway, why were cops responding to a medical call? We have got to get American society off this idea of cops as saviors. “Defund the police” is literally the dumbest slogan I’ve ever heard, yet carrying a powerful message.
Liberals: Try again. PLEASE. Try again with a better slogan.
“There’s a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state. The other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people.” - Commander Adama, Battlestar Galactica
Yes, it’s a quote from a Sci-fi show - but it’s hard to disagree with its reality. Yet there are still those in the US that would like to see the Police become even more “mighty/militarized”. Those people are fascists, and will be until the day comes that these so-called Protectors knock down their door. Only then will they realize, and it’ll be too late.
“No one needs a gun! Call the police!”
Also,
“The police will kill you and your dog!”

“Retrain the police. Also they don’t need tanks probably.”
Hold police accountable.
Or how about:
End “qualified immunity”.
Though that’s probably too complicated for a lot of people.
“Demilitarize the police”
