Maybe seek help from people there to help and not from cops. ACAB

How did this get so many people agreeing with it? 911 is emergency services, it is not a hotline to the police.

I didn't know that. Where I live, there are different hotlines for police, firefighters and so on. The US has one emergency hotline for everything?

Sadly yes, fire, medical, or police, all through the same dispatch router.

There are other hotlines for other services, location of underground utilities as an example, and I believe there's a suicide prevention hotline now, but it's new and hasn't gained public knowledge status yet.
