The new 911: "Ma'am, we're not going to go down there and escort your Western bacon cheeseburger."
This woman rang 911 to ask them: send an officer down here. I want them to make my order right.

A local radio station here in Cincy played the 911 call, totally unbelieveable. It amazes me people can be that clueless to call 911 over such stupid things.

My favorite part is:

Woman: It's your job to protect me!
911: Protect you from what, a hamburger?

That's the most unbelievable thing I've ever heard.

I thought this was a hoax when I opened the thread. But that ignorant bimbo was serious!!!!

I think I'm gonna dig a moat and get some rocket launchers and never leave my house again. The world is really beginning to scare me.

So did she get her Western burger or what? Don't keep us in suspense.

The operator should have sent police to the BK... to take Ms. Jerk and her Silver Spoon to jail. I hope there was not any heart attack victims in distress an extra 2 minutes while this piece-of-work pulled this stunt. I don't think she is ignorant either (to a certain degree). I think she is an arrogant type who thinks anything can be used as she deems fit.

I wish that someone with the knowledge could put her picture all over the internet w/ this audio. The world needs to see the face that had the gall to do this. She needs to wear a scarlet letter for this. We need to Hester Prynne her.

So I wonder... is this considered illegal use of the 9-1-1 emergency system? This is worse than an intentional hangup IMO. Hangups do not waste the time and efforts of an operator who is part of the chain of people who save lives.

Lock 'er up!

I don't know about locking her up but I would think such abuse should incur a hefty fine. If I were the operator, I would have hung up on her. :thumbdown
