...and then i see in the paper "31% of fatal crashes in northland weren't wearing seatbelts".... like the 69% of fatals that WERE... so, like, statistically, wearing a seatbelt is more dangerous than not, right? fuck sake. fucken stupid ass cuntfux.
protip: what's dangerous is DRIVING INTO SHIT.

You don't say...

Point isn't whether they use them or not, more that quite often they are not effective and when an ambo is faced with that scenario how do we think it will pan out then.

Nah. It's still only about half of what it used to be.
Nice use of the word "inference" in your previous post though.

I used to work with a lot of people with degrees and a significant number of them couldn't do that.

Just send out a "IceMan" clone in every ambo for protection

not many guys are actually tough enough to walk into bullets.
and generally rhey settle down after the first one.

two parameds, 18 in the first mag each... need to be some pretty rowdy shit they couldn't settle...

Dude, they're not funded for a second medic or driver, how you going to fund icemens?

Single staff ambos, got to be the most stupid, short sighted shit ever.

yeah, but since cars are actually over 9000 times safer now, roads are ^42 better..., 50% isn't really much to brag about.

i'd say the road toll has plateaued, at slightly less than the ratio of stupidity-to-vehicle-ownership.

degrees are for woofters.

If we issue the ambo guys with firearms will that turn them into a self-generating business? If they can charge so much per patient then they can go out and make a fortune.

That is a better business model than relying on donations. Speaking of which - I coughed up $100 a couple of months ago. Send them a couple of spare dollars too...

Sometimes you were...sometimes you weren't...that's what you get

I've been donating to the local ambo service for years but I strongly object to my donations going towards them cruising around town attending to abusive drunk fucktards on a Friday night

A complete waste of resources.

At the least, supply ambo's with tazers.

Oh there's a bunch of shit they spend my money on I'd rather was spent on adequate core services.

Can you guess what's right on top of the dolebludgingloser list?
