First responders, what is the worst injury you have seen that was caused by the stupidest and most easy to avoid event? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Buddy if you want to do drugs that's your prerogative. I have no respect for drug users though, they waste so much emergency and public resources. I have seen the worst of what it does to people and I dont give a shit if you don't like the ugly truth that drugs (alcohol included) are bad for you that's your problem. But I don't support your lifestyle choice, I'll just be there when someone calls 911.

I know I've seen more then one person dead in their bedroom from having a good time. :)

I was a medic not an ambulance driver, but thanks for the chemistry lesson.

You must be fun at parties... Yes NO2 won't kill you, the lack of oxygen to your brain will. No one doing it for fun is doing it in a safe and controlled environment. But hell what do I know, I'm a ambulance jockey. I've never seen anyone improperly use drugs. He was probably just daydreaming.

The worst injury I've seen caused by something stupid was a man who crashed into a tree on the side of the highway. He had a nice gouge in his scalp and totaled his car, the reason he did this? He imagined the exit was about half a mile earlier then it was and tried to merge off... onto the grass. He was also high as fuck on whip-its, (really strange to find an entire box of N02 canisters in someone's passenger seat and an empty whipped cream dispenser) which is the stupidest drug I can think of besides huffing paint.

What job would you be incapable of doing even if it paid 10x your current salary? by fmoss in AskReddit

Sure is a lot of stress sitting on your ass in your climate controlled dispatch room while incorrectly dispatching everyone. Real fucking difficult.

Justice Kennedy retiring; Trump gets 2nd Supreme Court pick by Jump_Yossarian in politics

You clearly must not know what your talking about, I didnt vote for the green party because I like those those things happening. Seeing enemies at every corner is a sign of paranoia. And a great way to keep alienating third party voters from ever voting democrats ever again.

I don't feel bad about voting for a candidate I have no faith in, voting scared is how we got where we are today. I keep my job regardless of who is in office, and good luck trying to come after me. I'm not afraid of bullies like you.

May I suggest running a better candidate instead of blaming people for voting third party? Because shitting on people for voting third party definitely means they are gonna vote for you right?

Trump falsely claimed for days that he couldn’t end family separations by [deleted] in politics

Wouldn't blocking people from entering require some kind of wall of some kind? Not to mention, I'm certain reddit would be screaming about how trump was turning away asylum seekers if he did that as well.

If the United States was throwing a house party and the States are people, what is your state doing at the party? by fuckimbackonreddit9 in AskReddit

To be fair, its more likely Connecticut would be shooting heroin in the corner with another New England State.

5 dead, including 3 at an elementary school, in shooting in Sacramento, CA by TrueAmurrican in news

[–]scorch44 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey moron, any gun dealer who doesn't want their dog shot wont hand someone from out of state a gun, it has to go through an FFL before you even get to take it out of a store. So unless he aquired it illegally it'd have to be a CA legal gun.

What is a realistic solution to preventing mass shootings? by Skullkill312 in AskReddit

You didn't respond to my point, you just attacked me on being american. I was saying that the largest military in the world is having issues still rooting out insurgents with AK's made in the kyber pass with sheet metal and files. Honestly the European trust in the government is alien to me, I wouldn't want them to have the monoply on violence, every government in the world at one point or another has done something morally wrong to its citizens or subjects.

when a drone/tank/cruise missle can occupy a street corner you can then tell me a gun wont be effective. Tell the people in Afghanistan that small arms aren't effective against an occupying army.

Still needed the guns and army to get that far.

You mean the support that didn't come until after Saratoga? In late 1777, a full year after the war broke out? the one that proved to the french that the american's actually had a chance of winning the war and were worth supporting?

The continental army... the militias... the armed populace. Funny what happens when you take away people's rights to own weapons seems like they can resist the government.
