In Jolly Ol' England

Bob S. relates a story of a young girl being attacked in the UK and their 'Emergency Services', notified of the crime in progress, don't bother to respond because it just wasn't critical enough.

Bob makes this comment:

If you hadn’t realized that you are your own first responder, I really hope this helps you understand that.

Remember though, that this is the 'modern' United Kingdom where if you act as a 'first responder' or in any way defend yourself, YOU will be the one prosecuted and the Gov't will pay the 'victim' (iow the Goblin who attacked you) to sue you for damages.

And this is the same route 'Gun Control Advocates' want to take us down.
