Glad to see the cult members are being guinea pigs here, surely this will be successful and impressive.

Note that this is Salt Lake City specifically, not Utah as a whole.

All the "undesirables" trapped in Utah - the gays, the atheists, the liberals, the homeless - overwhelmingly live in SLC. It's just about the last bastion of near-normalcy in the state.

Everyone else outside the city will still be getting their regular real humans on their 911 calls.

I can't say for certain that this is a targeted attack, but if it has all the same effects as a targeted attack, does it matter?
