Texas senate endorses letting first responders carry guns

    Die Zahlen sind aber happig:
    “Nationwide, EMS first responders are assaulted 700,000 times a year. McAllister said. “We are 30 times more likely to be assaulted than the general public, and we are seven times more likely to be murdered than any other health care professional in the line of duty.”


    Und ein Gegenargument aus dem Artikel:
    "HFD Captain Ruy Lozano said the department opposes the bill because allowing medics and firefighters to carry weapons could slow response times if first responders had to stop and secure their firearms before going into restricted areas such as hospitals or burning buildings."

    ...mit Legenden ist das so eine Sache...
    ...manche sind wahr... 8)

    Diese Logik werde ich nie verstehen. Dass man der Gefahr in den USA, von einer der vielen frei verfügbaren Waffen erschossen zu werden, mit immer noch mehr Waffen begegnet.

    “When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”
