Curse Word Cops

Speaking of atrocities, here's a video found from Carlos Miller's site. A girl calls 911 when her father has a seizure. She can't get an answer and uses "the F word" as somebody finally does pick up, and the cop on the other end denies her an ambulance because of her "foul mouth." The story gets worse from there, and she ends up getting arrested for disorderly conduct and failure to beg and grovel to a police officer.
According to the article, the man who answered the phone, Sgt. Robert McFarland, received only two weeks suspension without pay (which according to the crybaby tantrum-throwing commenter on the thread, who probably doesn't realize how damning his comment is, was even restored) and some training.
I remember horror stories of Soviet Russia, of folks groveling and bribing orderlies to get their dying family member a blanket in their hospital bed. Is that the kind of America that scum like Sgt. Robert McFarland dream of?
Many of us crucify ourselves between two thieves - regret for the past and fear of the future.
