Just doing some blog-hopping before getting my supper on the go. Hope you've been having a nice weekend. 
By now you may have heard about the Florida woman who called 911 because McDonalds ran out of McNuggets. So when she could not get a refund...she called 911..not once, but three times!! Why? “This is an emergency, if I would have known they didn’t have McNuggets, I wouldn’t have given my money, and now she wants to give me a McDouble, but I don’t want one, this is an emergency!”....she wanted to report a theft, because she gave money and didn’t get her order. Police cited her for misuse of 911 and she is to appear in court... looks like she ain't lovin it!
And not to be outdone... a man in Boyton Beach ( Florida ) called 911 because the BurgerKing did not have lemonade..and it was taking too long to get his order!! Police arrived quickly and arrested the man for misuse of 911.. NO LEMONADE!!! CALL 911!! MORON !
Also .. guess how many times OCTOMOM ( sounds like a lame - ass superhero huh??).. called or has had the Police over at the house... 9 times!! She called 911 to report one of her children has locked himself in the bathroom and no one can open the door ( why call a locksmith and PAY for it when the Police can do it for free ..ie: taxpayers money), she also called 911 when one of her kids went for a walk with grandma..and she did not know it.. other incidents of Police presence included calls from others about the welfare of the ..how many kids?? 6? plus 8 on the way!!
It seems a consumer named Reginald Peterson had just visited a local submarine sandwich shop and was incensed when employees left off two important ingredients - mustard and mayo. So he allegedly did what any rational (??) normal person would - picked up the phone and dialed 911 to complain, asking that police be sent to the store to demand that his sandwich be made again !!
But that still wasn't the end of it. Authorities are required to respond to 911 calls, and dutifully sent out officers to check out what was going on. That apparently wasn't enough for the incensed caller, who dialed the emergency number a second time. The reason: he didn't think cops were responding fast enough.
When the not-so-amused Officers finally made it to the scene, they lectured Peterson about the misuse of 911, but he allegedly refused to listen. He's now been charged with making false calls to the emergency number.
As for the sandwhich... he asked it be thrown out! Unlike his court case!
A man in Largo, Florida called 911 after being surrounded by police officers. Police were called to a bar to investigate a disturbance but found no problems. The man in question, who according to police reports appeared intoxicated, was told to move along. The man then called 911 telling the dispatcher he needed help because he was surrounded by police. He was later arrested and charged with misdemeanor misuse of 911.
Ok... I think these are enough examples of misusing 911.. still makes you wonder why people are sooo stupid!!
