My buddy in Texas found a way to get an immediate police response when his car was stolen.

He had an AirTag under the seat, so he knew exactly where it was after it was stolen. He called police, and got the runaround. They’re too busy to respond, they’ll send an officer out to take a report when they have a chance, etc…

Then he mentioned his handgun was under the drivers seat. Police were on-site in less than 3 minutes, with multiple cruisers and guns drawn.
