Man Arrested After Calling 911 over Probelm with Viagra.




AOL - Police hope a man in Florida will think long and hard before he prank calls 911 again...Investigators in Broward County say 28-year-old Matthew Wade Douglas Jr. is responsible for two obscene 911 calls in which a man graphically described symptoms -- and raunchy home remedies -- following an alleged overdose on the impotence drug Viagra...Dispatchers say the man spoke explicitly about the effects the pills were having on his body, then detailed how his "wife" was performing oral sex on him to help reduce the pain. (Police put quotation marks around the word "wife" apparently because his marital status was in question.)...In February, detectives returned to the address with a recording of the 911 calls. That's when the homeowner recognized the individual on the phone as Douglas -- a man who had dated his daughter.

I don't understand the issue? Do they not tell you on the commercials to seek medical help if there is trouble with an erection lasting more than 4 hours or other side effects?  Poor guy was just doing as instructed and now he's being arrested?

Like how else is the guy going to describe the fact that he's had a raging boner for an entire evening? And aren't details involving remedies he's tried so far a part of the normal medical history that Doctors usually seek when treating anyone? Would you prefer he just march down to the station and whip it out and see if you can treat it without any prior information?  Because I don't think that's going to be good for anyone.  As far as I'm concerned Matt Douglas did nothing wrong here.

If you're sensibilities are that delicate that you can't take a man calmly explaining a situation involving a medically enhanced stiffy then maybe the job of 911 operator aint for you.  What the hell, I thought these people were trained to be cool and calm in the face of an emergency, what would have happened if this was a life or death situation?
