yea well in liberal states the police are under funded to the extent here in my town of colorado springs it takes the cops 30 min to show up if there's a dire threat, major priority situation. otherwise if it's say vandalism and you want to report it, they won't show up the day you call. wait 2 days. call back.  then they'll show up.  we have fire and ambulance that is efficient.  i'm right in the middle of the city and can't depend on the police at all.  in small rural towns i lived in, you could call the cops for anything and they'd be there in about 10 min. so you're kind of wrong.
