Comment on American cops think they're what American firemen ARE.
Poem_for_your_sprog@lemmy.world 2 days agoThat makes sense. I was imagining a human cat that constantly climbs up trees and on top of buildings and gets stuck.

Yeah that makes sense too. My phone is set up for LAFD pings and every couple days they’re out rescuing hikers or bikers in the canyons.
Many years ago our car died in traffic on a hot day and I got out to put up the hood and wave the car behind us to go around, and it sparked to life for an instant and locked me out. Windows closed, 107°F, our toddler and infant secured in car seats, and my quadriplegic husband. Pre-cellphones. I sprinted down the road to the gas station to call 911 and borrow a crowbar. Luckily the fire station was near, and the oncoming lane was clear so the fire engine was there almost as soon as I sprinted back, and they popped open a door. After that we set the toddler’s seatbelts just loose enough they could “Houdini” out in an emergency, since they were trustworthy. And I learned my lesson about doors.
