Most, if not all, states have laws that list making "false" 911 calls a misdemeanor. It is high time the State DA offices start prosecuting people for this. A hefty fine and up to a year in the jug will do wonders to educate these people.

Yep. Especially a little jail time. Nothing drives home the point like a cell door slamming shut.
