Police: Being mad at presidential candidate NOT reason to call 911

LAWRENCE, KS — One police department wants you to know that, despite your strong feelings, getting angry with a presidential candidate is not a valid reason to call 911.

The Lawrence Police Department in Kansas quickly racked up more than 20,000 "retweets" and 25,000 "likes" for their polite reminder, followed by a tip for anyone partaking in a debate-style drinking game.

Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump went head to head Monday night in a debate. Things quickly got heated as the candidates tackled the topics of race relations, the role of police, the Charlotte protests and Homeland Security.
