What are the police, chopped liver?

HOW long does it take police to arrive after you've called 911?
some folks have found out the hard way that police may not get there in
time to be of any good for you. They may not come AT ALL!
They may be busy elsewhere. In the LA riots,police REFUSED to enter the
riot zone.
People had to rely on their own firearms to defend themselves.

Well said. And don't forget Katrina/N.O.
