If I get called to a scene where there isn't a serious problem, trauma or not, then I'm not worried about letting a pare...

I would get the police involved as soon as the mother said she didn't want treatment for her child. I would explain that it doesn't matter if they have insurance or not, he needs to be treated in a hospital. In my mind, if she still is refusing treatment for her child, then that is a sign of abuse ...

I havent commented on this yet because I have training, but no experience, but I was curious.. What about like tension pneumos and stuff.

The 02 is my daily rider at the moment. Working out a few details on the shovelhead right now, but I built her from the ground up from a pile of junk engine parts.

Some states allow you to OWN a pistol at 18, but you cant BUY one until youre 21.

SOPC is a whole nother animal these days. Starting now its going to be a 0% attrition course where the events are completely optional and wont include much in the way of land nav from what I understand. Its a shame...
