Hey, I didn't say I "feel" good that the pilot and firefighter made is back home safely. I do. I didn't know that LAFD was their for animal rescue.
I think sanctimonious douche bags that spout off about how " It is what this man chose to do for a living. I am sure it isn’t the first dangerous rescue he’s been on and hopefully it won’t be his last." don't know anything about what it's like to really lose a friend or friends that may die doing "simple helicopter" transports and rescues. It's dangerous... yeah they signed up for it and most of the guys and gals that are on those units love it and love to help people. It's a calling... but for you to sit there and somehow think it's even close to putting a living human being with wife and kids or innocent bystanders at risk for a dog is pathetic.
so sit there behind your keyboard and make yourself feel morally superior to spout off about something you know nothing about .. oh by the way... don't "feel sorry for me".. in fact feel nothing for me. Save it for some dog or cat.
these were my friends
I have yet to find a cat or dog that was worth their life. They gave their life transporting a patient who also died in the crash. There isn't and hasn't been a dog I know that was worth their lives. They also signed up for dangerous work, so we can disagree. I have friends that fly for the Houston PD and in other medical transport services, none of them is worth 100 dogs.
