It is nice but I wonder what they say when they cannot get their quickly. It seems that I would rather have a gun in my hand rather than a cell phone in hand when the SHTF. I doubt the police chief wiil issue them permits.
They say, "Oh, we thought you said that the guy was gone, so we just came by when we were in the area to take a report." 1.5 hours after the 911 call.
That was in the next neighborhood over from Mission Beach, last year, when a young woman called to report a man in the act of trying to bust her door down. Fortunately, he left. Maybe her dog scared him off.
It wasn't in the papers. These stories get shared at dog parks and coffee shops in San Diego.
What ex-police-chief, now mayor Sanders really meant was, "Holy crap! They actually caught the perps this time!"
...too late to make too much difference. I wonder how many months they'll spend on probation.
