PDX airport: Most firefighter paramedics exit over mandate

Oregon Catalyst: Ever seen a medical emergency at the airport or onboard a commercial flight?

I have. And you’re grateful that emergency services exist right there at the airport to respond immediately.

But the Governor’s of Oregon and Washington decided to launch a frontal attack on all the emergency services in both states…demanding proof of vaccination, or a pink slip as thanks for all those decades of life saving service.

Portland Airport just lost the majority of its firefighter paramedics…trained, skilled professionals who would not bend to the dictates of Queen Kate. more

  1. Airplane firefighting is a VERY specific type of firefighting, and it takes awhile for even seasoned urban firefighters to learn the ins and outs of getting in and out of a giant aluminum tube that stands a story off the ground and is full of electricity, fuel, oxygen, people, and God knows what in the holds.

    And that’s if it DIDN’T cartwheel down the runway in a flaming ball of death.

    Even extracting a cardiac patient from these severely confined quarters without them dying is a specialized skill, particularly since they are packed butt to gut with a ticketed “ohh ahh” squad that WON’T GET OUT OF THE WAY.

    Not sure that, after taking nursing shifts, unloading cargo ships, flying the planes, and keeping the peasants away from their Communist masters who CAUSED this all that the National Guard has enough manpower left for this as well, but I’m SURE a Democrat has taken into consideration just HOW LONG AND HOW HARD THESE GUYS HAD TO TRAIN FOR THIS VERY PARTICULAR TASK, given that she’s NEVER DONE A FUCKING USEFUL THING IN HER LIFE…
