Police: Call 911 Not 112

The Paulding County Sheriff's Office warn residents to call 911 not 112.

Members of Paulding County Sheriff's Office are warning residents to call 911 not 112 through their Facebook page today.

"The new urban legend around is to call 112 if your being stopped by an unmarked police car to verify its actually a law enforcement officer," reads the post. "If you have AT&T as a cell provider it will actually go to a 911 center but it also may not be reliable.

"Please don't call 112 to see if it works as it is tying up 911 lines and operators," continues the Facebook post. "If you find yourself being stopped by an unmarked car put on your emergency flashers, dial 911 and continue driving to a safe location unless the 911 operator tells you to stop. PLEASE DIAL 911 NOT 112."

I am torn on this decision. Even though homosexuality is a sin, it is no greater a sin than lyingRead More or cheating. If the troop had boys who were not Christian & they were committing those sins then that sin was being brought into the church. I think Christians need to remember that no one sin is greater than another. I think the parents of the boy scouts would have to determine if they wanted their child to participate in the troop if their was a homosexual in their group. However, the church hosted the Boy Scouts upon a certain charter. When that charter was changed then the church has the right to decide if they want to continue the association. I know of other churches that ended their hosting of Boy Scouts last year because the group was becoming too politically polarizing & they felt that conflicted with the ministry of the church. It is a fine line with views on both sides but I feel each church has to decide what is best for them...it is after all their facilities.

Do we not remember who Jesus surrounded himself with? Don't believe for one minute that there is notRead More one homosexual in your congregation, or for that matter an adulterer, a fornicator, a thief, a liar, the list goes on. And if you are a real stickler, any divorcee that has dated or remarried is committing sin every day. I do not believe in the gay lifestyle but I do believe in what good the boy scouts do. Shame on you for abandoning them when they need you the most
