Rescuers' elite in emergency action

Whenever disaster strikes in any part of the world, Russian emergency workers are often among the first to come to the rescue.
From putting out fire to finding people trapped under rubble - they're ready to help.
RT went to their training base in the Moscow region, to see how they prepare for the worst.

is being liberal bad? i am not real liberal although i find neocons such as Bush, Cheney, McCain,etc disgusting.

what shoud've Katrina victims done? specifically?

[jerdeb4evr]

Are you Liberal? Gotta be. Did I say anything about the Phillipines, Earthquakes offer no forwarning. Hurricanes do. Phillipinos are not multi-generational welfars junkies that would rather sit on their collective ass and bitch about drowning. The Phillipino police force did not desert their positions, steal a dealership full of Cadillacs to make their escape. Buddy

you are surprising me. are you accusing Katrina's victims in incapacity to save themself? what do you say about thousands victims of recent earthquake in Phillipines? they got what was coming to them? you are wrong, buddy.

that's exactly what i meant. as far as i remember, the first aid arrived to New Orleans in ONE WEEK after the disaster and the following relieve measures were very badly organized and corrupt.

by no means i deny heroism of single individuals or some organizations involved but as a whole it was a disaster.

in New Orleans, US Coast Guard emergency rescue Heroes performed a valiant and truly incredible, physical life-saving mission given the magnitude of disaster. Thousands of lives were saved via helicopter air-lift rescue in short time.

What was failed, was the local govt's emergency preparedness plan and emergency response, as well as Federal and state agency failed humanitarian response to the disaster. It was absolutely unacceptable to react to Katrina natural disaster the way they did.

[jerdeb4evr]

Bullshit. What leads to New Orlens is corruption. In grained, multi-generational corruption and welfare dependence. A culture of worthless humps sitting back and expecting someone else to take care of them. ENOUGH, ENOUGH. Start backfilling New Orleans do not stop until it reads altitude+250. Then auction off the blocks address at a time. Sorry no account welfare livers. time to find new home.

emergency ministery is extremely important and must be well trained. lack of that leads to events like in New Orlean.
