  1. RIP. Still doesn't make me want to carry a vest and gun though.
  2. Well there goes the credibility of YFD brass...from Commish to Lt. Sounds more like the FDNY Chair brawl than good old fashion fun. "It is almost always the cover-up rather than the event that causes trouble." - Howard Baker A cover-up ended the Nixon administration, imagine what it will do to YFD. I am confident that heads will roll.
  3. I am sorry for generating controversy. I simply am trying to determine a EMS providers legal duty to a K-9 patient.
  4. Let me rephrase my question: Does the transport of a K-9 over ride the existing duty to act? For example in an shooting, a K-9 gets injured and EMS begins transport of the K-9, if another person get injured on scene, does the EMTs existing duty to act over ride the K-9 on which he has no legal duty? The "douche bag" only has a legal obligation to compensate victims of his crime after a court has told him to do so, the bill does not go away in that time. Does the law enforcement agency have a insurance policy or reimburcement plan for the animal? "Doing the right thing" does not pay the bills. I am not advocating against EMS transporting police K-9. What I am arguing is that these things need to be considered and planned for before saying "ok now you can transport K-9s". Here is another question: Whose gives consent for the dog? Handler, PD Chief, IC?
  5. Does this mean there is now a legal obligation to transport injuried K-9s provided there are no patients present? What happens if transport of a K-9 is initiated but an actual patient becomes sick or injured? Who should the transporting agency bill regarding K-9 transport? (Medicare/Medicaid will not cover it)
  6. Yeah NAFTA is North American Free Trade Agreement i.e. Mexico and Canada, not China. These hoverboards were produced in China. Your problem is with the illegal importation of non-UL rated electronics by China. But by all means, do not let the facts stand in the way in the of your ignorance.
  7. Where exactly in the county is there both no cell or pager service?
  8. Any belief that a draft would be better than an all volunteer force are sufficently put to bed with this RAND study. The Evolution of the All-Volunteer Forcehttp://www.rand.org/pubs/research_briefs/RB9195/index1.html
  9. Didn't stop 4 planes from being crashed into PA, the Pentagon and WTC. And hasn't stopped mostly stone aged tech farmers from stopping NATO and Russians for 4 decades in Afghanistan and Iraq. Do not forget Syria was once one of the largest and best equipped militaries in the Middle East outside of Egypt, Saudis and Israel. Look where the knowledge of their overwhelming military forces is now. The 21st Century will show that peace comes from hearts and minds, not from JDAMs and M4s or gun boat diplomacy. You sound no better than those who say we need to nuke Iraq, Syria and Afganistan to "fix the problems" over there. You may have seen the war first hand, but your understanding lacks substance.
  10. Be a better global parter. Free the oppressed, feed the hungry, heal the sick and help the needy. All of those will do much more for American safety then any draft will ever do. "I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail."
  11. So many wrong points here it is almost farsical. Total non-story. Russians were operating in international waters and were intercepted by South Korean Air Force prior to an USS Reagan F/A-18C/Ds. Whipped into controversy by Fox News but totally par for the course. Considering China is a mostly brown navy on the best of days again, there is no challenge to American power in the South China Sea unless you count unmarked obsticles which have sunk more navy ships in recent memory then any boomer, AShM or diesel-electric submarine since the Falklands. You mean the deal to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons in the Middle East and replace the nuclear weapons material with power generating material? Sounds like a lot of peace to me. That $100 billion will do wonders modernizing their infrustructrue and spreading American goodwill in the region. Japan or Guam maybe but only Russia can reach US mainland from their mainland. Good thing both Japan and S. Korea have AEGIS based missle defence supplied by the US military. See US invasion and destabilization of Iraq and subsequent unrest, destabilization in Syria courtesy of G.W. Bush. "Inscription on the Statue of Liberty" Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses, yearning to breath free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore, Send these, the homeless, tempest tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door. -Emma Lazarus See Iraq comments from above. Invited by the Syrian Government and while bombing FSA positions, has more to lose from extremism and terrorism given its proximity to Syria and large muslim regions and population. Hezbollah hasen't attaked Israel since the begining of the January and considering I drove the entire Lebanon/Israel border in May, there is not much to worry about there. Not sure how you are calling them in disarray as they are actively competing with the US in the global oil market making American petro products uneconomical to export. They are also winning in Yemen against the Houthi. Died on a rescue mission rescuing hostages earning America more good will. De oppresso liber. We are not the only NATO forces present in country and the 9,000 is way less than the 100,000+ we had at the height of surge.
  12. Older men declare war. But it is the youth that must fight and die. -Herbert Hoover Sounds like you are signing up your son, and the sons of others, to die for an ideology they do not support. At least ISIL brainwashes and indocrinates all of their youth before sending them to martyrdom.
  13. The governed gave their consent by only voting on the referendum and not voting for the commissioners that support their opposition. IMHO the taxpayers of the YHFD are getting what they deserve. Being screwed out of their own tax $ by the YHFD fire district.
  14. Never Forget
