Yes they are - they offer first aid, food, water, shelter ,and common injections

So do the Girl Scouts and they're not first responders either.

Let's suppose for a minute the Red Cross is all gung-ho to crash an unknown situation.

By what authority does FEMA have to NOT let them into an area? I can see local police, fire, Nat'l Guard having jurisdiction. But FEMA?

Read these strings - its widely reported that Homeland/FEMA denied/heldup a wide variety of profesional first responders.
