Never saw a fireman stand outside a burning building because they were too scared to go in. Maybe thats why there arent any fuck the fire department songs.

(17,006 posts)The Parkland officer was arrested for failure to act because he didnt, by himself, confront a gunman. What do you think will happen to those Texas officers.

(26,080 posts)Not until the Coral Springs cops, a neighboring force, did any officers do anything. Then, the Broward County Sheriff planned the SRO. He successfully cleared his name. He was scapegoated.
