    First im going to say sorry for the spelling and gramer up front. Here at the Dept I work as a Dispatcher on a report of a building fire we send 2 engines a heavy rescue and a truck and deputy chief then we send a RIT engine and a medic truck as part of the first alarm if we go to 3 alarms one of the ladder trucks (out of Town) on the thrid alarm is the second Rit tream. all fire fighter in my dept have had some type of RIT training. At the mass Fire acadmy Rit training is part of the full time recruit class as well as the part time call/vol class the Mass Fire academy has a few Rit classes that any fire fighter in the state and out of state can take 1 is a 2 day Rit class the second is a 4 day Rit train the trainer 2 day the thrid is Rit for Chief a Commanding the mayday class and last but the most importin ( I Think it is ) is Rit for Dispatchers. just my 2 cents

    They are a crack commando unit was sent to prison by court for a crime they did not commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the New York City underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... The A-Team.

    now thats funny i dont care what anyone says thats funny right there

    These shootings all have direct ties to 2004 when Bush decided to let the ban on assault weapons expire. Pretty much every single major shooting since that time has involved - in some way, shape, or form - firearms that, as far as I am concerned, have no place in society except for maybe the Army. Everyone jumped on Obama for his views on gun control, and in light of the events 2 weeks ago in Oakland, 2 days ago in Binghamton, and yesterday in Pittsburgh, can anyone really blame him for wanting to curtail access to firearms?

    As far as the instant topic, I don't believe that the presence of ESU/SWAT would have prevented any deaths, unfortunately

    you are so wrong in so many ways guns dont kill people people kill people and if they inforced the laws we have maybe there would be less shootings maybe not. You cant just blame it on the guns.
