Firefighters can definitely be douchebags , especially to guys that work for private ambulance companies . My department , we staff the ambulances . And we all get along really well . But there are still times where I can see why people would think we are assholes . It ' s a mentality . How many people do you know willing to walk into a burning building with or without water behind them ? <| sep |> Dude , as another American I also confirm this . You can probably go to most barsclubs and just start talking and instantly have an edge . It helps a lot if you dress well . I ' ve seen this in action many times . <| sep |> Jesus might have said don ' t murder abortion is obviously debatable but he also said something about not judging other people . If you believe in god then why not leave that job to him ?
