Because when you deal with death and trauma and seeing teh innocent suffering on such a regular basis you have to crack fucked up jokes like that or you'll go crazy. I already can't fucking sleep without Ambien some nights as it is. I'm a Paramedic as well, and we have our own twisted humor in that field as well. No one likes having to kill someone, or having your best friend get shot in the head rigth next to you, or having someone die after 15 minuts of CPR and countless attempts to resucitate. Its hard to explain but surely there are some firefighters or EMTs or cops that browse this forum who can understand. If you don't look for some escape from the shocking reality of constant death, it'll eat you away inside. Believe me I am HAUNTED by images seared into my brain from my numerous deployments and years workign in EMS, and there are days I really wonder why the fuck I even try any more. Certian smells or sounds can throw me into vivid flashbacks... but its that fucked up humor that keeps me and my mates going. If you can't look past it you are innefective at the job, and an effective way to deal with the constant stress is to use humor. I think thats a lot healthier than using drugs or beating up on your wife, which some of my brothers in arms have sadly resorted to.
And on top of that, THE ****** I SHOT WAS TRYING TO KILL ME, and he severely wounded my mate. So yeah its funny because he got what he had coming. At least he died quickly. |
Former Captain in the Army. Was in Iraq in 2005 for OIF3. I have flashbacks of the death horrible images too, but you are an idiot for your gloating of what you describe here. You are an example of what makes officers jobs harder and give the military such a bad reputation abroad such as Lebezniatnikov says below...
We all have our ways of coping with large amts of stress so the lauging at the moment could easily be justified b/c of the adrenaline etc..

If anybody is still wondering why the entire world hates Americans at this moment in time, I offer this as Exhibit A: |
A few bad apples ruin it for the rest of us...similar to Abu Graib a few years back and the new dick fuck who used the Koran for target practice at a range in Iraq this past week.

I think stealing the watch and calling the twitching body "pretty funny" were out of line. |
Agree.
And btw.. I agree with Teresa's comments in the last page of debate even though I know she hates the military.
