This isn't so much defensive as it is offensive. It's not going to keep you safe and it's not going to keep you from harm's way. I mean, neat ideas and stuff, lord knows I've thrown handfulls of nuts and...

Commented on 911 police officer refuses to help girl who calls about her dying father because she said the F word before the call was answered
Ok, first and foremost, the news crews got it wrong. The sound of the phone dialing and the ring tone are inserted sounds. Unless your phone is 100% tapped and rolling 100% of the time there is simply no way...
