@esparka Fire Chiefs are just one of many local positions in EMS, not dictators in charge of a military "theater". Especially since there were no flight restrictions, he's way out of line threatening help with arrest.

@esparka You have a fundamental disconnect in your understanding of the United States. Govt officials are not the ultimate arbiters of life and death just because there's a disaster. The people are the highest level of govt, and take priority. So neighbors helping neighbors is a higher law than some frustrated dictator in a uniform, especially since this pilot already coordinated his efforts with local EMS. If you want to live in a country where every little move or desire from the peasants is monitored, controlled, and approved or rejected by power-hungry frustrated souls, there are plenty to choose from abroad.

@esparka I’m trained in EMS, Combat Trauma Management, PHTLS, and have a bit of experience in this field from a past life. I just disagree with your perspective across the board, and stand by my statements about the wannabe little dictator. What kind of person hinders rescue efforts of neighbors helping neighbors, especially if they have enablers (rotary wing) that can mean the difference between life and death? There are places where over 1000 people are still missing, for example, with unclothed kids running around asking where their parents are.

@esparka No random person would know to string the certs together that I did. In the US EMS, we're taught to immediately employ bystanders to do simple tasks if we can, and strongly encourage and provide training for anyone who wants to learn first responder, First Aid, and even disaster relief skills as part of our EMS and crisis response infrastructure. So when I see a senior level manager not only doing the exact opposite of that, but threatening an enabler/force multiplier with arrest, I see a little dictator persona.

@sharong6945 Employ as many trained and untrained people that are able to assist with life-saving efforts. This is EMS 101.
