Calling 911 for snow information???

[MillenniumC5]

The news just did a story about how over 1/3rd of the calls to 911 in Marion county today were people asking about how bad the snow was going to be in their area. Are people really this stupid? Use 911 for emergency only!

 

[phylodog]

Yes. People are absolutely that stupid. Alarming numbers of them actually.

Obama's going to be pissed when he sees how many minutes they're using on his phones. I can't imagine what that family plan runs

I just figured since they were gonna be out anyway that they wouldn't mind dropping by to give me a ride to the liquor store.

 

[Justin Case]

Yes, people are this stupid. Many people are this stupid!

 

[BiscuitNaBasket]

Yes, people are this stupid. Many people are this stupid!

Most people are inherently stupid, if threatening weather is added to the mix then it's a disaster of epic proportions!!!

Wow, and I felt like a fool when I called Marsh to make sure they were open. I didn't know I could call the police to get a road update too.

AND those same mopes get pissed when you ask them if THIS CALL IS AN EMERGENCY and are then told to call the admin line.

Reminds of the news I saw last year where a lady called 911 because a fast food place was out of hamburgers. Or something along those lines.

I'm fairly certain it was a McD's out of mcnuggets.

How ridiculous, what a waste of 911's time. Turn on the TV for crying outside.
