Is America safer since 9/11? An Atlantic Magazine article exposing billions in waste. Or something.
http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2016/09/are-we-any-safer/492761/ ---------------------------- Consider this paragraph from the article "The feds have sponsored drills and other exercises to help state and local police departments, and other first responders, rehearse how they would work together in an emergency. One full-scale, 24-hour exercise in Massachusetts, six months before the April 15, 2013, bombing of the Boston Marathon, is credited with helping officials do such a good job of stationing medical personnel at the site before the event began and mapping out how mass casualties would be distributed to the city’s multiple trauma centers that, amazingly, none of even the most grievously injured among the 264 victims was added to the death toll of the three who died immediately at the scene." ------------------------- I wonder when the first human being ever said - "Maybe we should spread out the casualties among multiple hospitals" - ? It was probably sometime after the 2nd hospital was constructed on planet Earth. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
