  11. Part of an overall gun control plan. Back door control by buying up all the ammo. Without bullets your guns become expensive paper weights.

  15. Hopefully he'll be able to come up with a solution to better utilize firefighters as first responders/partners with police. Too much sittin around firehouse waiting for fires to happen.

  16. This gentlemen has been in this specific industry and you can't get folks from out of the air to fill this important slot. Good for him, he has been around the block and been in the fires and seen the blood at the crash sites, heart attacks, CVA's and shootings. Knows industrial cites and how EMS works. Sorry, I got carried away with ZOMBIEs. I was trying to be curve up the crazy stuff the national government is up to.Thank you for your service to the public. I mean that too.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
