I am suprised ur department lets u psot videos like these

[mabas21]

I am not on a Department, I just do this as a hobby. Don't think they can really stop me from posting the videos.

No, any video/photography done of something in plain view is perfectly legal. However, when you cover police actions you need to use caution. Do not get close, and don't be hiding in the dark where you might be recognized as a threat. Don't get yourself hurt.

[mabas21]

Could not agree more, and I really wish they would understand and enforce the plain view theory. There is a guy out here that does not believe in this. Real piece of work

[v8shadow]

Well that would probably be because the GPD uses any means that they can to burn officers at thier discretion. There are some things that don't need to be captured on video, especially when it is put online for the world to see. There are some things the GPD officers have to do to get the job done that might be construed as "excessive" to the average joe who has no experience of policing a high-crime city. Nonetheless, GPD administration use things like that to hurt, not help the situation.

[mabas21]

Understandable, thats why I would never publish anything like that. I am not in the business to get people fired or in trouble. The police and I actually have a pretty good relationship and a mutual understanding.

Believe me, we're not lazy. We work 12-24 hour shifts at a time, day and night. The reason we don't run like they do in movies is because we can't possibly know how dangerous a scene is at first.

We walk to the scene to see what's going on first and prepare ourselves for what we're about to be faced with, which can often be truly horrific. It'd be plain stupid to run in there with 50kg of gear.

Have a little respect for the people that you'll want more than anything if you ever get hurt.

poor Aurora :(

it seemed that there were 4 possibly 5 cars to me, minivan, white car, black truck, the blue/or green car at 1:06 and maybe another one.

how many where in the 3 cars total? 6 ambulances seems like a lot not knowing that. We can send 2 boarded patients per ambulance here. Head injury's(depending on nature of the injury) all go via helicopter due to the risk factor.

@behrzone You know what, you don't have the skills nor the hard training knowlegede these firefighters have . These firefighters have to focus on the patients and the vehicles that pass because they might come around and run into them. So if you don't have the knowledge these fire fighters have then I advise you to shut the hell up. And thats the nicest way I could of put it.

[desertbum8]

@behrzone You are literally too stupid to be to have an opinion. We aren't "lazy". Like what another commenter said, we work very long shifts getting between 10-20 calls a shift. Scene Safety is probably why it looks like we take our time. We make sure its safe enough so that none of us become patients as well. So do us a favor, when you or a family member get hurt. PLEASE don't call 911 since you hate us so much. Take care of it on your own with your superior medical knowledge. Oh wait..
