911 Calls: Do you believe states should ban the release of 9-1-1 calls?

46.66%	Yes
53.33%	No

Comment: I believe these calls should be private and not opened to the general public. from Pensacola, FL by Steve

Comment: No I do not think they should be banned from being broadcasted in general. They can be used to either identify the victims or aggressor voices if the calls are not made from a phone where the person can be tracked. The only time I believe is if the call involves violence against a child or a rape victim and then they should request premission from the parents or victim if they survived the attacks. from Niceville//Florida by NightHawk

Comment: because people should be able to hear that kind of stuff from Pensacola fl by Will

Comment: the public has the right to know...if the 911 system is screwed up or not besides some of those calls are the most interesting and funny... from p'cola fl by h
