Would you think to order a pizza if you were being abused?

A lady in Oregon was in a domestic abuse situation. Her partner must have been a complete idiot. She called 911 to order a pizza & managed to get her message across to the 911 dispatcher who sent help to her home. The dispatcher also instructed the responding officers to turn off their siren on approach because the knock at the door was supposed to be a pizza delivery. Due to the fast thinking of this lady & the dispatcher, the abuser is behind bars & she’s safe (at least for now). During the time my ex was beating on me, I never thought to order pizza. Of course, back then, the law was on his side & I was told that I had no rights (unless he killed me). IF your spouse was hitting you, would you be aware enough to dial 911 to order pizza???

In all fairness, any of the guys who have an abusive partner, I ask you the same question.
