[QUOTE="Raido Free America, post: 3793847, member: 45328"] I retired as a fire Fighter, Rescue Diver, EMT, from a city near a large lake and with the Arkansas River running through town! We had more drowning than most larger cities, because of this. . We had five people drown in one day, was the worst event i can remember. In my experence alcohol/drugs were involved in 95% of the drownings I worked! I suspect there is much more to this story than we are being told, since the politicially correct thing to do right now is to TRASH THE POLICE, no matter the facts! In all these years I have a lot of first hand experence with the local news media, and like the national news media, their priorities are present a good synsational story that will get ratings, report what their BOSS wants to hear, HIS/HER OPINION, try to win awards, notoriety, that will help with their career, get job offers from larger organizations, etc. and way down on this list is, report the facts, if that does not interfere with these other priorities! UN-sheltered means homeless, I guess? We used to call BUMS, like this BUMS, back before it became FASHIONABLE, Now we are TOLD to call the COPS BUMS! Remember George Floyd? I hear they are naming schools after this BUM? I guess that will influence kids to grow up and act just like THIS HERO? GOOD LUCK TO US! [/QUOTE]
