911 Dispatcher To 80-Year-Old Home Invasion Victim: Put Down Your Gun

Font Size:

If you live in Tampa Bay and somebody breaks into your house, shoot first and then call the cops.

WTVT:

You’re 80 years old. You’re alone at home. Somebody breaks in.

And the cops tell you to put down your legally owned firearm.

I wonder: If this woman had been hurt or killed, would the cops cover up that 911 call? Is telling crime victims to disarm themselves now the standard operating procedure? If not, why did the dispatcher say something so astonishingly stupid?

Keep grabbing those guns, gun-grabbers. Let Grandma fight ’em off barehanded.
