Fortunately an unmanned air strike is still considered an unacceptable response to a police assistance request.

There's a saying "when seconds count, the police are only minutes away". That's a best case scenario and usually only true if you're in a good neighborhood in the suburbs. The police can take hours to respond to a call, and that's when you don't live in the boonies. Rural people need to be able to take care of themselves for the most part.
