"When the criminals show up at your house, please just make sure you let them know that they have access to 'mental health and crisis prevention' resources that were funded out of the money saved on defunding the police"

When criminals show up, you call the police. When crazies show up, you call the mental health folks.

"Meanwhile, in my city, I will call 911 and the police will show up at my house within 2 minutes and arrest those idiots."

If I called 911, and the sheriff was parked at the bottom of my hill, it would take him 7 or 8 minutes to get here; 12 minutes from the sub-station, maybe half an hour if he's out on patrol
