'WHERE ARE THE COPS?' | Highlandtown home-invasion victims waited 14 minutes for police


BALTIMORE (WBFF) - As Baltimore Police scrambled to the scenes of shootings early Saturday morning, two young females and a 2-year-old boy were trapped on a rooftop.

Shannon Gaasch says she had just gone to bed when she heard the sound of glass shattering.

Someone had thrown a brick through her friend’s door and were inside the house.

Immediately, the homeowner grabbed her son and ran to the room where Shannon was sleeping.

Trapped on the second floor, the three had only a rooftop run to.

For nearly 15 minutes, Gaasch was on the phone with 911.

During the call, Gaasch said: “I keep telling the dispatcher, 'They’re still in the house, they’re still in the house. Where are the cops? We need them here. We have nowhere to go.”'

When seconds count.....

Hey, 14 minutes is a long time but, unfortunately, it is quite a bit better than average.

"According to Homeland Security the average police response time to an emergency call for a shooting in a school is 18 minutes."

Average response time in some major cities (e.g. Detroit, New Orleans, etc) runs about an hour.

wherearethecops.com seems like a domain that would have nothing but stories like this.

In the eyes of the law as confirmed by the Supreme Court, the police have no legal obligation to protect the lives of individual citizens and an individual has no entitled right to law enforcement protection.

"Citizens have neither the right to police help nor recourse when it is refused."

"Gun-control advocates repeat that citizens don’t need guns because we have the police... The reality is far more grim."

There are many brave law enforcement officers and most will risk their lives to protect individual citizens. It is an apparent reality that often they can not respond in time to prevent a tragedy.

But you are a victim. As well as I, and any other 2A loving patriot here in NY.

if your a legal gun owner .. lock n load , follow the laws on carrying , we can use your help too .. ... just sayin

You have to be able to defend yourself. Nobody is going to care about you BUT you!!!!!
When are these stupid liberals going to understand this.

Hang on there Ba-Ba-looey !! Joe Bafoon biden claims all you need to do is grab that ole double barrel shotgun and shoot a couple rounds out the window.

Now just being a low life deplorable, I prefer being ready at all times....as You

When they attach a cop to every citizen 24/7 .. I "may" consider common sense gun control.

As the saying goes - when seconds count, the police are minutes away. Literally.

14 minutes for Baltimore is fast. They probably had 12 shootings first. That’s wjy I have guns in my room. I have a roof to get out onto as well. All my family will be on the roof of need be and anything else that sticks it’s head out the window will get shot.

There have been many break ins in my area. This guy keeps going in houses early in the morning while people are still home and asleep. Scary.

14 minutes is plenty of time to mop up. Just saying.
"one shot is a backfire, three is gunplay".

Wait..... weren't there riots in 2015 about how terrible the Baltimore police were supposed to be? So.....why is anyone calling those racists for help?





See...Liberals really are nuts who don't believe in self-defense while hating law enforcement.

840 seconds... With each tick seemingly a lifetime!

Approximating that it can take 10 seconds to render you unconscious, that's possible 84x... Let assume knifed and a major artery nipped, unconscious in 20 seconds with death soon to follow, that's still 42x... Oh the possibilities... Let's think rape and a few minutes for the achieved result, say 5, that's still possible for being raped 3x...

And the liberal progressive agenda would have you believe that is better, ie, be a victim, than blowing the fucking home invaders head off and protecting yourself!???? Because they've never been attacked in their home, stabbed with a knife, or raped!

Why don't the liberal media start asking "victims" a simple question... If they had to re-live the criminal encounter, but could do so "armed" would they prefer to be able to have defended themselves rather than await police response?

Yeah...

I think we all know the overwhelming answer!
