Shouldn't this be in off-topic?

I voted police as they play a very important role in society.

(Fun fact, Chuck Norris invented black. In fact, he invented the entire spectrum of visible light. Except pink. Tom Cruise invented pink.)

Fire Department!
Why? becasue they are jack-of-all trades! Police? solve crimes and disputes. Paramedics/EMTs? Fix you. Fire Fighters? Put out your Fires, cut you out of your car, rescue you from a well/trench, investigate CO for you, assist Police with entry, Assist EMS with life support, Building collapses, and SO much more i cant think of...

But, I'm not dissing Police OR EMS. All three need each other :D that^^^ is just my opinion, since it was asked ;p

Well so far im my carrer ive been to fires, extracted people from cars, trench rescue, water rescue,hazmat,high angle rescue, and a guy from my station chased down a guy who stole somewomans purse. So if thats enough. Oh and don't forget all those bull shit EMS calls we get stuck going to or if theres a alarm going of and they don't know what it is they call us. Then theres things like guy gets his hand stuck in toilet or someone fell and needs help getting up. But we don't do everything but we do a whole hell of alot of stuff

Some of those stupid calls are hilarious here are some more:

- A female caller has dialled 999 to report a grey squirrel with no hazelnut trees.

-A female caller has dialled 999 to complain that she cannot get health insurance.

-A male caller has dialled 999 to complain about the lack of buses in Crow Lane.

- A female caller has dialled 999 to ask what year the Internet started.

-A female caller has dialled 999 to report an injured pigeon.

-A male caller has dialled 999 to say that his wife has gone out without leaving any food to eat.

-A male caller has dialled 999 to ask for a taxi to get him home from Lockleaze.


(all true)

Well I chose Police Department, because I am now a police explorer and plan on being a police officer in the future!
