Wrong targets
Several interesting stories in the news today. First, there was >>this about the poor firefighter with the serious facial injuries received when he was performing his duties and got hit by a missle thrown by some nob. This happens all the time where I live. The firefighters and paramedics will rush out to some place to save someones life and instead of people being grateful, they get together and attack the lifesavers and do them and their vehicles damage. Does this make any sense to you? I myself have had my life saved by firefighters and paramedics, and I will always be eternally grateful to them. Being from the North, I can understand the antipathy to the peelers, but in no way should this be extended to those who brave all kinds of dangerous situations in order to save lives. Would YOU like to go into a burning building and try to find someone in the heat and thick, choking smoke to drag them to safety? It's a dangerous, traumatic job and how people can attack those who do it exceeds my ability to understand. Everyday these men and women are out on the streets facing horrible situations just to save lives. When I read about them being attacked, I am totally disgusted and pissed off. Then there were all the stories about the >>Christian Brothers closing up shop in Ireland. All the stories have two things in common. They are quick to point out that the Brothers offered a superior education to those who might otherwise have never been able to get one, but more importantly to me they illustrate what bloody sadistic bastards many, many of the Brothers were in their treatment of the children. I didn't need the news articles to tell me this. I've mates who can attest to this in reality. So all I have to say to the Brothers is: good riddance, and about fecking time.
