A genuine WTF moment

Tam and Breda posted about a woman and her two sons who were stabbed to death while police officers waited 45 minutes outside the apartment waiting for a supervisor to give them permission to kick in the door. For a moment I thought we were getting another story from the formerly Great Britain but this took place in DC. What’s worse the City is fighting the lawsuit instead of writing a check. The sad thing is they’ll probably win.

The lesson learned is that you can’t rely on anyone but yourself the police least of all.

As for the officers that stood outside the apartment because of policy while three people died, policy be damned. Get off your asses and do your duty and stop letting others make excuses for you.

H/T to Uncle.
