    Umm yeah we live in a society so I guess every action is political from that perspective. I worked as a firefighter for several years. I know the response times for police and fire/ems and they aren’t that good.

    Appendix solves a lot of this. Printing can happen but a ton of it is easily avoided

      Yeah, being a first responder really changed my perspective on a lot of “safe” areas" and how far help is.

      When you have one lone deputy in your entire county for a good portion of the night (and frequently only 2-3 cars during the day), and state is just on call, not patrolling… you can easily be 45 minutes out from LEO, that’s been a very long wait before…
