Aren't cops and firefighters supposed to put their life on the line? Isn't that what the physical training and requirements are for?

LOL (/snort> Firefighters put their lives on the line several times a day in some places. That being said our duty is not to try to die...

How many dead would have been enough for you to have felt like you got your moneys worth?

But hey those firemen funerals are cool with all the bagpipes and shit.

That is not a fair characterization of what I said.

Nobody diminished what cops and firefighters do.

And I am not for getting a quota on deaths of cops and firefighters.

Debate honestly or not at all. A man who arguably could have been saved was left to drown here. Nobody is blaming you.
