Anonymous / unauthenticated calling to emergency services is a good feature to preserve.
Reacting as though they are credible enough to warrant deadly force is not.
- johansch 9y agoSure, but that only works so far. Even a european-style police force would eventually snap if they had to do 100 break-ins to combat ongoing crime if 99/100 calls were fake. Both issues need to be addressed.
- TheGrumpyBrit 9y agoSurely if 99/100 calls were fake, that should reinforce the idea that a fake call is a possibility, and ensure that police are less likely to react with deadly force unless a threat is proven.
