  1. I agree, but then Social Media would have released it anyway, at least it is ratified by the mass media as a whole. As for the walking past, what else are you going to do? This argument always breaks out on forums, and we all hope we would be the one strong enough to do something, but we just don't know. Crowd psychology is very potent and affects people in different ways, all actions in what is hardly an every-day situation are far from thought about. I just hope the victim, the military and the police who shot him are supported as a whole - otherwise it just divides us. - The OC-D

  2. The reason it is classified as a terrorist attack is because of the political motives of the attacker and the attacked. Both have been shot by armed police, which shall make my dissertation interesting. I sincerely doubt SCO19 shot them 'in the kneecaps', centre of mass is the policy, which would justify why one is in a life threatening condition. - The OC-D

  3. I paid a visit to Apex VFD yesterday to pick up my application (wish me luck!) and got a few shots at station 1.

    In NYC I've heard them call these RAC units, this truck though is swift water rescue:

    In New York I believe the type of vehicle is nicknamed a 'Bread Van' because of its shape, RAC stands for what it does: Recuperation and Care (or Rehabilitation and Comfort - depends who you ask).

    Nice photos everyone, looking good :) - The OC-D

  4. I guess some people prefer their ambulances to look like rolling chess boards...does that make it more official?

    I kinda dig the coppery brown with the white,green and yellow.Like mentioned it's unique looking.

    Woah! Didn't need an argument about battenberg! I love the green and the yellow, I like the tiger stripe and chevroned back. If you see my comments in the emergency vehicle picture group, I mention how sad I am that finally the Met has given way to full battenberg on all cars. For this vehicle's livery I (personally) reckon if the brown bit was blue or red or a different shade of green, it would look nicer and a bit more 'ambulance', probably because brown is underused on emergency vehicles, and therefore looks unfamiliar. Thanks :) - The OC-D
