This one was due to a prank call from someone on a deactivated pre-paid cell phone telling police he had just shot his wife and was going to shoot himself. They apparently extracted everyone from the house, and the calls kept coming. What I want to know is, why call out the “emergency response team” for a guy threatening to complete the suicide part of the murder-suicide. Shouldn’t the correct response to “I just shot my wife, and I’m going to shoot myself,” be “It would be nice if you could save the taxpayers all that money. Go ahead. I’ll wait for the bang to dispatch the meat wagon?”

Did it in the wrong order, buddy!
What is, “how do we justify having a SWAT team?”
I’ll take Big Government for a thousand…
Suicide is illegal?
Suicide is illegal?
Yes. Can’t have the proles leaving… by any means.
