This Online Group Is All About Fails That Fit Under The ‘You Had One Job’ Phrase (50 New Pics)

I needed more on this story so i Googled it: Roy, Utah man, Jose Calzada, 35, placed a call to a suicide prevention hotline and threatened to kill himself. Neighbors described Calzada as a quiet, friendly man, who was divorced and now lived in the home with his girlfriend and her children. The first tragic mistake in this case was made when the Weber County Consolidated Dispatch Center sent officers to the residence rather than some type of crisis response team trained to deal with suicidal individuals. A SWAT team came to the residence and “negotiated” with Calzada for more than seven hours before taking his life. "Officers are authorized to stop a threat whenever their life is threatened, or the life of another is threatened. And at that point if the officer feels he is justified, he may act to stop that threat.” Apparently a threat against even your own life is considered a general threat and they shot him! So sad

This is so sad. My dad committed suicide. I truly feel that most people just do not understand the tragedy of someone ending their life this way unless they’ve experienced a loss this way. I’ve heard so many crude comments over the years in passing about suicide.

SWAT: Some Whack Ass Tactics

I can confirm that this is true, calling this hotline is a bad idea! I was in low place a few years ago when my father died, dialed the number hoping just to talk to someone, well they keep you on the line, trace the call next you know, fifteen minutes later you’ve got six cops storming your place, guns drawn! Best just to man up and keep your feelings to yourself.

Not sure what the ' I think its funny comments' this happens way more than it should Mental health is nothing to joke about

Grim interpretation of that old meme image of a sign that says "Don't kill yourself, let us help!"

Looks like they did a killer job...

Only in Utah

Technically not a suicide. Good job, Team!

Something devastatingly similar to this happened in Fergus, Ontario Canada last August. People suffering mental illness don't need guns pointed at them in their own homes.

There is such a thing as suicide by cop here in the US. Basically, you just have to pretend you’re going to shoot a cop and they’ll shoot you first

I need the rest of this story!

Instead of helping a man go on with his life, they cut I short.

Give a man a gun and he'll look at it. Add a bullet or more and he'll shot it.

This is such a tragedy. How very sad and wrong.

Plot twist: It was suicide-help-line. Not the prevention one.

At least they saved his eternal soul... allegedly

It's says if you are a veteran press one, habla espanol numero dos, to speak with a counselor press 3. I press 3. A couple more questions and they say they'll connect me to the next available counselor in my area. Then thank you for your call, we are still searching. I hung up. Soon my tears turned to laughter at how inept this service is. It was such a joke. So, yeah, a suicide was prevented.

go to swat for suicide nice one buddy
