“The technological limitations of 9-1-1 can have tragic, real-world consequences,” the release said. “During the 2007 Virginia Tech campus shooting, students and witnesses desperately tried to send texts to 9-1-1 that local dispatchers never received. If these messages had gone through, first responders may have arrived on the scene faster with firsthand intelligence about the life-threatening situation that was unfolding.”
Um, isn't that thing you are using to send a text also a phone? Don't try to say you didn't have minutes since every cell phone is required to be able to talk to 911 even if it's got no service connected to it.
