Don’t Call The Police When Facebook Crashes by J0nyb0y(m): 9:32pm On Aug 09, 2014
I’ve heard of people calling the police
for some awful reasons before, like
them getting the wrong items from
the drive-thru window, but I have
never heard of the police being called
for something as meaningless as Facebook crashing; until now, that is.
That’s right – at least one police
department in the United States has
received phone calls when the
Facebook site has gone down.

Last Friday, Facebook apparently
went down for an extended time. And
for some people in Los Angeles
County, it proved to be just a little
too much for those who may or may
not have Facebook addictions. Instead of doing something else
online or simply choosing to get away
from the phone or the computer for a
while, some people began to call the police department to report that
Facebook wasn’t working . In case you’re not aware, the police couldn’t
care less if Facebook is working or
not – they have actual jobs to do. In a
classic response to the calls, Sgt.
Burton Brink took to Twitter to
address the issue(s).



Can you believe that people would
actually call the police and report
that Facebook isn’t working?
What did they expect them to do – go out and arrest Zuckerberg wherever he was? Really, folks, let’s all exercise a little common sense before we decide to call the police.

In other news, Facebook seems to be working today. What do you think? Let us know your
thoughts regarding this story in the
comments section below!..
