Pulling people out of a burning building. In reality the smoke and fire is so bad, you ain’t seeing shit, not like the clear visibility like they show in the movies. And I spoke to a firefighter who’d been doing it for 35 years. The guy was teaching fire safety at my workplace. He said he responded to thousands of burning buildings and the number of times anyone’s been saved out of a burning building? Exactly zero. That always stuck with me.

I tend to keep a lot of opinions to myself and especially avoid charged threads too. But I just want to say you’re recognized and your opinions are appreciated. You debate thoughtfully and respectfully. We need more of yous on here.

Geez you’re not kidding. All the recent posts are politics with regular sounding headlines. I’m gonna start downvoting headlines that don’t fit.
Seeing a clearer version of this pic, this looks like a busy road. I mean the timing of the truck, the proximity of the white car, the stop lights timing out just right. It’s a miracle no one on the ground died.
