    When my sister in law isn’t a firefighter or ambulance attendant - really really - she’s a cop. Hero or bastard? How’s that fit in your wheel of judgement?

      Why are the same people doing 3 high pressure jobs? That’s not going to help with the individual’s stress. No wonder your cops make poor choices

        First responder jobs in the U.S. are often very low pay, sometimes no-pay (volunteer). It’s very common for first responders to have multiple jobs here, unfortunately.

      Ah, yes. This thing is horrible, maybe, but what about this other thing?

      What a great argument. If only there were some kind of term for it.

      The last person I want to be around during an emergency is a cop – on or off-duty
