If I can't have a crossbow, I'M NOT PLAYING! I'm taking my toys and going home!

I notice B-Bob made it, but no Angelina? I like Sandra as well. Ryan Reynolds (her co-star in Proposal) is pretty freakin funny too!

It is a forum. Bashing sucks and should not be condoned, but news and info as well as posters opinions, and/or experiences although negative are not always bashing. I see that virtually every time anyone has a negative experience with a LEO and shares, people a quick to scream "cop bashing"! Not always the case! I agree. Signs, signs everywhere theres signs..... Sorry sir... You have no grounds for filing an assault charge, seeing as you are not a pimp AND there was a sign stating you were subject to being b*tch slapped. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Currently a no go. Legislation just passed last week to allow but was vetoed by Bredesen. Expected to be a veto override in Legislature this week.

I agree. I completed my EMT-IV about 3 years ago, and it was a great experience! They "threw in" TARS vehicle extrication training and certification. The hurst tool and all the attachments, cribbing etc. was AWESOME, and cutting a car into pieces was GREAT, BUT the turn out gear we had to wear during that training was enough to turn me away from any future with a FD. No offense to the FF's out there; Not to mention EMT cert is a GREAT addition to a resume in virtually any public service position and many other employers LOVE having one on board!

I must agree with Hex about Haslem. I think he'll do/say what he has to get elected, then watch out. He'll break one off in us the first chance he gets. Those types forget how they got where they are as soon as the make it. IMO I am awfully partial to Ron. Just my

Mmmmm. Mexico!

Ok. Why doesn't everyone here take two minutes and drop an email bi*chin' bout the sorry RAC's working the show? Pledge in the mail not to return to R&K and explain how you will only patronize their competition (Bill Goodman etc.) Let them know!
