some are, i didn't assume he was though. I figure'd most are employed through the city/town/county/state level, not federal. but i'm just guessing i have no idea.


Yeah I have no clue lol I assumed it was city, but no experience there

Well I could explain in more detail via pm, but it’s not that interesting. But part of our response area is a military base and hundreds of other federal buildings. So that’s why

very un-pc of you, your colleagues would be ashamed.

I have never claimed to be PC. PC culture is a plague on our existence. It falsely suggests that the world should adapt to the individual when it is the individual who should adapt to the world and toughen up if necessary.

But yes, I would probably be banned from teaching if I had a social media account and spoke my mind on it. Liberal arts is like the PC police headquarters.

A lot has changed since I was a kid, that's for sure. We had games named like "smear the queer" and such. I could just imagine if kids named a game that now days, and then all ganged up on one kid with the ball who was the "queer". We had some awesome running backs and receiver with good YAC in high school because of it though! I am with you 100% on it. we are raising some weak ass cry babies in today's world. People get way too upset over the stupidest shit now days it's almost laughable some of these causes they come up with to bitch about.

Smear the Queer was still a game ~10-14 years ago. Played it in middle school a lot although the staff would write us referrals for "fighting" if we tackled lol.
