Nice sentiment, but you do realize they usually arrive AFTER the cops.

or the perpetrator is Gone, leaving them to only deal with obvious victims
- and in at least one case (Jamar Clark in MN) He was attacking EMTs attempting to treat the Victim of his abuse... The Police were arresting Clark for this repeated assault when he grabbed a weapon and was shot

They lead dangerous lives though. I wouldn't take away from that is the same thugs the police try to catch are the very ones who find it sport to shoot at fire trucks and ambulances. Its 2 totally different jobs though, which anyone can see except whoever thought this was some great observation. :)
