OK THIS IS NOT TO CAUSE FLAMING, ROWING, OR ANY KIND OF UN HEALTHY ARGUMENT AND THREATS.

Smoe of america's policys are a bit radical some are good, however i have a fear that some day policy will go to far and well down it goes.

any input that is not flaming, or what is aboved mentioned welcome this is only to be a nice easy discussion NOT a mud wrestling match.

Don't threaten me. I'm only toying with you.

Forgive Abraham Takeda. He just likes making sure everyone knows he's a moderator.

Right, I'll bring in some stuff to prepare this thread.

Any which road, speaking as a person living in the UK, although I do agree that recent US policies have sometimes been a little radical, they helped us out when we needed it before and for that I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt for the time being.

But they stole your fire trucks, didn't they?

@ all:
At least you know you'll all be watched, so behave as you were ordered by our Kapitain!

Takeda Shingen · 01-16-06, 12:45 PM

It's okay, I'm not mad either. Just trying to hijack the thread before the hoo-haa hits the fan.

Anyway, let's get back to what is most important: That firetruck does not seem adequately secured. This constitutes a great hazard to any nearby observers. I am seeking to hold Oberon personally accountable for posting that picture and threatening the saftey of the members of this forum. For shame.

S'ok, our firefighters were probably on strike anyway

As for the firetruck not being secured properly, I hold my hands up in shame but offer a free digital gift to help prevent any injuries.
It may also come in handy should this thread be taken seriously by anyone.

The firefighters may be striking again but cut them some slack. In todays society here in Britain firefighters no longer are exposed to just the dangers of fighting fires. British thugs are attacking firefighters at an alarming rate as indicated here:

And there is this report today by Sky News:

http://www.sky.com/skynews/article/0...209153,00.html

Scary stuff. What next? Will firefighters have to be armed with 9mm's or something?

Oberon · 01-16-06, 01:37 PM

Oh, don't get me wrong, I'm all for them getting a pay rise considering what they go through. My Granddad used to be a firefighter and was one of the original (I believe) members of the FBU (though not 100% sure on that, will have to ask him when I see him next) so when the strikes were on I sure as hell wasn't one of the ones complaining about it.

I was just trying to think up a witty comment for the moment

Konovalov · 01-16-06, 01:40 PM

That's cool. In addition to the firetruck a few water bombing aircraft and helos might come in handy.
