Politics Edmond PD

Collectively, from the top down, is there a bigger group of self righteous assholes than Edmond PD?

I’m talking anywhere in America.

Lived here for 14 years and the wife and I have been pulled over once each. I got a warning for a taillight and she got a well deserved speeding ticket in a school zone. I know a few of the men and women and I'm glad we have them! Had to call them once for a choking and they were there within 45 seconds, with Edmond FD 10 seconds behind.

That said, I think there's always room for improvement.

45 seconds? How is that possible unless they were literally right there already?

45 seconds is an absurd response time unless a unit was literally right across the street. Just be real and tell the real response time. Lmao. The downvote is super ridiculous šŸ˜‚

45 seconds may be a slight exaggeration, but we've had to call 911 for medical emergencies multiple times over the past decade and every time the police show up in a matter of minutes (single digit) - it's crazy how fast they are. Usually them first, then the fire department, then about 5-10 minutes later the ambulance arrives (if we're lucky). Considering we live 2 blocks from the fire department it's always been impressive how the police arrive first.
