But are the 269 buildings in the areas that people get shot? And are they open during the hours that people get shot?
I'm putting my money on No and No... |

Before Covid, Texas passed a law that all middle and high school teachers get stop the bleed training. If covid had not hit - I can only assume that would have been a shit load of stop the bleed kits. Due to covid, I doubt 1 out of 100 got the training...

Is a passerby going to know how to use the kits? Maybe, maybe not.
Does Chicago/Illinois have Samaratan laws which would apply if said kit were misapplied? |

Lol, I just noticed an old first aid kit in a science lab at work that is probably 40 years old. Had a box of ammonia-inhalant crackers in the box with the cellophane wrap still on.

Why would they put bleeding control kits only in certain areas? Are they saying that certain types of people are more likely to cause violence than others? This sounds kinda racist, somebody should compare the racial demographics of where these kits are going to the racial demographics of where these kits aren't being installed.

Seems like a waste of time and money, so I’m surprised they didn’t act on this sooner. Isn’t that what the government is for?
This thread is a good reminder that I need to find and sign up for some local stop the bleed training for me and the wife though. We live rural and have a bunch of kids, it’s not unreasonable to think that in my situation and with proper training it could save one of our lives someday. |

Maybe they should hire 269 cops and start stop and frisk???
Maybe anyone with a felony gun conviction should get 5 years min. 10 years more for repeat offenders? Automatic 5 year min for straw gun purchase? Oh wait that might save a few blacks lives.... |

Quote HistoryQuoted: someone should review the financials behind the company(ies) that got the contracts and cross check it against donations to dems @aggiesq You got me thinking on that so I went down the rabbit hole. The units they bought are basically PN: 80-0468 made by the North American Rescue Company of Greer, SC. Except they're packaged in a plastic box that mounts on thewall. The basic unit sells for $450.99.. https://www.narescue.com/public-access-bleeding-control-8-pack-vacuum-sealed.html I looked at the company profile and who they made political contributions to, and was surprised to find that while the company can't make political contributions, the the organization's individual members or employees or owners, and those individuals' immediate family members donated primarily to Republican candidates... https://www.opensecrets.org/orgs/north-american-rescue-products/summary?id=D000054748 Of course, we don't know whether the City of Chicago bought those directly from the manufacturer, or from a vendor. There was a Broward County sheriff who was involved in a shady deal back in 2020, with what appears to be the same product... https://www.sun-sentinel.com/local/broward/fl-ne-stop-the-bleed-kits-sheriff-20200511-mdkjzxaktfezfbjmct2wp3iqbi-story.html And as Columbo used to say, "Just one more thing..." If you can buy those from the factory for $450.99 and the city bought 426 of them at $500 apiece, someone made a $21,300 profit. |

Would those so inclined be able to misuse a TQ to assist with injecting drugs?
Hollywood shows us that rubber tubing or belts are preferred, but why leave the hood to steal either one if you don't have to? |
