Police slow to respond to shooting victim


iconGun fearing wussies say that people don't need a gun for protection. They claim that you are more likely to be killed with your own gun. They say that women aren't smart enough to handle something so complex as a firearm. All of them should be made to read this ABC News story.

A Houston woman is furious after she says someone took a shot at her and her four children as they were riding on the South Loop Saturday night. But she's not just mad at the gunman. The victim is also angry Houston police took more than 12 hours to respond to her call for help.
She can be furious all she wants. She can be dead for all the Houston police care, because courts have already said that police have no legal responsibility to protect her. That said, how anyone, like Eric Alexy, could deny her the right to protect herself is beyond me.

"Is the Government Responsible for Your Protection?"

Goodness... The HPD responded within a couple of hours when my wheels were jacked, and they take this long to respond to a SHOOTING? This is why Houston needs Orlando Sanchez as mayor...
