Re: Suicide bombers have used an ambulance to attack a police in Iraq

[Guest guest]

This is so sad, but it was only a matter of time. These insurgents have no

Cowards with no conscious. My Grandfather told me that in WWII, BOTH sides,

respected the medical insignia on camps and vehicles, and would withhold fire,

out of respect for the wounded. The enemy we face today is like nothing before,

they have NO honor, as WE know it.

When I first joined the " Chaos " camp at TRF, I brought an Ambulance. I had it

parked near the back fence. No-one knew who it belonged to, and it got some

people fretting. This was shortly after 9-11. Authorities had asked people to be

aware of Emergency vehicles that seemed " out of place " .

Makes me shake my head.....but does not surprise me.

If you apply the Geneva Convention and the Laws of Armed Conflict your a civil

It's actually scary how often citizens call 911 to report ambulances or police

cars parked in various locations. Most of the time, it's a marked patrol car

with a uniformed officer in it, running radar or writing a report, yet morons

think that is suspicious. Just like the idiots who pass an MVA with two

ambulances, four fire apparatus, four police cars, and a helicopter on scene,

and call 911 to report the wreck. Just as bad are abandoned vehicles parked on

a shoulder, with a week's worth of red stickers on the windows, that people call

in as an MVA with people trapped every half hour.

911 calls should automatically be charged $250 dollars. If you stick around and

get a voucher from responding authorities, the charge is removed. If you don't,

or if they show up and say it's bogus, then your next phone bill is going to

hurt!

Ehhhhhh,,,, not too sure about that. I know you are halfway joking, but also

know your passion behind that.....I was walking out of a convenience store one

day, and three men were walking towards me. One veered off to the left, and got

on the pay phone, the other veered to the right and leaned against the corner of

the building, the third....middle.... went past me into the store. 

I left,....(South Post Oak/Gasmer/S. Willow) But I called 911 to report the

suspicious activity....never knew the outcome, but it sure looked like a set up

for Armed Robbery to me.

If I was wrong about the situation, should I be charged 250.00? Wouldn't that

deter people from calling in possible criminal activity, and wouldn't that be in

the favor of the " Bad Guys " ?

No......I was actually pleased that people at the " Chaos " camp were AWARE that

there was an Emergency Vehicle out of place. I made friends with them that

night, and still enjoy their company toady, knowing that we look out for each

other.

I do concur with all your other examples, but unfortunately, TOTAL

stupidity,....is not necessarily a violation of the law.

Coug.

If stupidity was a crime we'd all go to jail a rime or two.

Besides if we had no stupid folks we'd have 35% or less calls (made up #) and

you would rarely hear " we had a guy/gal that... " at shift change.
