If police didn't respond to someone ostensibly suicidal, they'd catch hell.

Based on the history of suicidal people attacking cops, if they weren't ready for an attack, they'd catch hell (or die, which isn't actually part of their explicit job description).

Of course, we could just tell police to ignore the suicidal, or maybe just point and laugh and call the coroners. They probably wouldn't mind. Easier and safer for them.
