If I'm reading this right it's worse than that.

You know how when you go to the police to report a stalker or someone threatening you and they just kind of roll their eyes and tell you there's nothing they can do? And you're left getting a useless restraining order that's going to do nothing but feature in the news and trial after you get murdered?

This is a hotline for rich people to report stalkers and threats specifically to be acted on. But I also wouldn't be surprised if they whitelist their phones to be at the front of any queue for 911.
