What is some good cop lingo to use when I tell 911 i have shot an intruder?
|
1) I have shot an intruder
2) I have dispatched an assailant
3) I have liquidated a scumbag
4) Punk was feelin lucky, but he wasn't
5) An attacker has assumed room temperature
6) The corpse of a would-be assailant is on my floor, come and get it
7) Forget the ambulance, send a coroner
Or what else do you suggest?

In all seriousness. Tell the dispatcher that someone was shot, then do not say another word, other than your name and DOB, until you speak to your lawyer. |

i like number 4. and as a police dispatcher it would probably make me laugh my *** off and i wouldn't be able to get any more information. but as the lines are recorded it would probably be in your best interest to be as nice and calm as possible if they were to go back and listen to the tapes they may think you were carless and joking about the whole situation. but hopefully the situation will never come about. good luck. |

just tell them what happened, no one expects you to sound professional about it. " a man came into my house did ...whatever... I shot him |

I suggest you make sure the intruder has a weapon in his hand. Depending upon the state in which you live, you could be liable for his injuries if you're not in mortal fear of your life when you shoot him.
That, or drag him an inch off your property and let the local pack of dogs have a go at him ;-). |

I suggest you ask the intruder. If he's not dead, he probably knows how cops talk! LOL What a question! |

Plain English works for me, just stick to the truth. If you've got nothing to hide then don't try to dress it up. |

Personally, I prefer:
8) None of the above.
Kid, I suggest you put down the gun, and step away! You're scaring me!
If you've got to rehearse for this, you're going to wind up in prison.
bushido1 has it right: This "LINGO" is not COP lingo! Any cop around here would be booted out with that kind of mentality! I sincerely WISH you were joking, but I'm afraid you're all too serious. |
