Flaky Florida

No beer: call 911. No lemonade: call 911.

Alright, Banduar... these are your (adopted) people. What is it about living on that overgrown sandbar that turns people into witless nincompoops? Something in the water? Or perhaps it's the high proportion of retired yankees?

Ok, the lemonade call was definitely a retired yankee, but are you honestly saying that you wouldn't call 911 after a store clerk refused to sell you beer? Who'd pick up the body then? ;-)

Trust me they are everywhere. I had a lady call police out for an argument she was having with her boyfriend. I spoke to her and then started talking to her boyfriend to get his side. Well, she didn't like that so she called 911 again. They radioed me and asked if I was out at the scene and I looked over and saw her talking on the phone. I walk over to her and she told me she felt that she wasn't getting justice. I told her "well, you're about to get a lot of justice" and arrested her for abuse of 911.
Another called because she couldn't get her dog to go outside. One wanted us to close her house windows because it looked like rain. It would amaze you the stupid things people call the police for.

I'd never kill someone for refusing to sell me beer. Now for refusing to sell me scotch... maybe a minor killing. Nothing over-the-top, you understand.
