 AU>911 just sent out a questionnaire here in Brown County OH. that had some 
 AU>personal questions on it that I wouldn't answer, and I'm  volunteer fire 
 AU>fighter here. The thing is you may give some info out that you are 
assured 
 
 AU>Say that I am a shooting enthusiast and I put info that would help fire 
 
 AU>fighters know that there is a supply of ammo located in a particular part 
 AU>of 
 AU>the house. Now you have just told local law inforcement you are a gun 
freak
 
 AU>and should be dealt with as such! Give them only what they need, name,
 AM> addres AU>and the nearest cross street. That is all the need to get
 AM> there and provide AU>help. 
 AM> 
 AM> 
 AM> Amen, Andy.  The way things are these days a S.W.A.T. team would 
 AM> probably show up with the F.D. 
 AM> 
 AM> In California all the "good" gun owners who registered their
 AM> "ass-ault"  rifles now show up on the cops screens when they get a call
 AM> to that  area.  They know where you live, and one day they will knock
 AM> on your  door and ask for your gun. 
 AM> 
 AM> Protect your privacy or you will soon have little left. 
911 is a good system, but just like anything else they are wanting more and 
power and control. The 911 in our area put out feelers to all of the 
departments around here to try and get the job of directly dispatching county 
sheriff cars as well as fire and ems. Well 911 is just taking root here and 
take my word, they have a long way to go till the come close to Clermont 
co. 911's professionalism. Some real boners have happend here, we had a car 
fire right out of the village and I had heard on the scanner the local police 
call the sheriff dispatch and ask for the fire dept.. Well I thought I had a 
good jump on the situation and headed for the fire dept., but I heard another 
fire department get toned, 20 miles away for the fire. 911 and the sheriff 
dept. doesn't even have a working concept of each others codes and signals or 
unit # this is always causing big trouble. They drop tones by mistake in the 
middle of the night and don't say a word and never say disregard, just go 
ahead and tone the right one. They don't follow protocall on territories and 
mutual aid. 
All of the 911 people should be have to listen to scanners at home just to 
get as familiar with the workings of it all. I know most of the scanner 
buffs here know territories and unit designations, signals and codes better
than 911!
Now all that said they want all this personal info and expect me to trust 
them....NOOO WAY!
