100% Directionless Thread

I had a situation last night. A few hour ordeal with the local deputies.

Things are just unfolding.

I didn't get much sleep.

I won't get into details, but we're all alive. I wouldn't call it "Good" though. Just, prayers for us if you've got them to give.

30 years of "accidental discharge" calls. "The gun went off while I was cleaning it." That sort of thing. Thanks for asking.

Accidental discharges or negligent discharges? Shoving a gun in your pants without a holster, cleaning a load gun, and so on isn't an accident. How many of them actually had a actually had a CCW permit?
 
Trying to decide if I'm going to have waffles or pancakes for breakfast...

Either way, I like to shred them up with my hands and dip them into syrup. I hate soggy waffles or pancakes.

Add whipped cream and fresh fruit.

This is not meant to be a part of any sort of meaningful conversation I swear, but every accidental/negligent discharge I've had has been with a CCW. Well one patient was the carrier's son, who he shot while clearing his gun. I think this is really just the product of working in an area known for high gun ownership and CCW rates.

Unrelated, AMR is offering an extra $10/hour to come in and work. Time to renege on my promise of never working a non-double medic street shift again.

And see, on the other end of the spectrum we get them every so often by the folks that tend to shove them in their waistband. Never had an accidental from an actual CCW holders (yet).
 
Bought the ACE SAT book to see any trends on things I may need to brush up on. Have missed an annoying amount of questions where the rationale is like "well yes, but no". 😂

I had one "the only way to know this answer is to memorize the oxyhemoglobin curve, which is nearly impossible"

Can we slide the gun talk back over to the gun thread?

Personally I think that would be a mistake. This is the one thread with no rules aside from being civil.

For better or for worse, gun violence and gun control are the topic of the day.

The only rule of this thread is for it to be topic-less and have no direction hence the name.
