NEWSFLASH!: They don’t arrive any quicker because you keep hounding them! AND calling 911 is for EMERGENCIES! Let me go find a definition off the good ole internet: “An emergency is any serious medical problem (chest pain, seizure, bleeding), any type of fire (business, car, building), any life-threatening situation (fights, person with weapons, etc.) or to report crimes in progress.” If you are involved in a non-emergency matter that you feel REQUIRES a deputy...like a roommate dispute...don’t be daft - you’re going to have to wait until a deputy is free. Other commentary with a few cuss words arose, and again...Jesus said no. Fine!
