      I keep RATS tourniquets in my car. I get them in orange because they're easy to find if I pass by a bad car accident.

      No joke, I thought about getting a AED for the car too. So no offense 😉

      As for the previous unpop, I'll try to get back on track. Sure, tax the shit out of unhealthy foods in the name of public health. Also ban alcohol. Alcohol related illness is a serious problem, in addition to drunk driving, and it has limited health benefits that can be offset with mandatory exercise. Tax the shit out of anyone that can't run a consistent 8 minute mile for three miles. Also establish standards of weight resistance that people must be able to push/pull/lift. Osteoporosis is a big problem. Plus other health benefits for resistance training.

        Also, I keep a chest seal, chest decompression needle, and a nasopharangeal tube in my pack, as well as the emergency kit in my car.

        I keep the equipment to make holes in people, so I keep the equipment to plug holes in people. In the end, it's about saving lives, all around. The latter is more important equipment than the former in my opinion.

          These unpops suck.

          Fast food is awesome, smoking makes you look cooler and the best music and movies are made by people who were out of their face on serious drugs. Come at me bro  😎

            ^
            u right plus getting blood on my belt would suck and i saw a few for under $10 US, will ask the emt folks by my gig what they carry around and what would be best for a civilian like myself to keep in the car.  do you have a defibrillator as well?  by you r track record of being over prepared i would not be surprised (you know me dougie, but i'll write no dig is being taken so it's clear)

            and again you are presenting a different public health issue to oppose the previous un-pop, but it's cool to me.  makes for witty banter

            ban alcohol  😢 😢  can not believe you wrote those words

            @Matty123 you are growing on me . . . like a mole, hahahaha

            I’ll Take it.

            Maybe so. Maybe not

                Ok, Doug, I'll play.

                I'll gladly pay an extra 5% in taxes so that poor people have access to basic healthcare.  I'll admit I'm overdue for recertification on CPR, and I agree that everyone should learn it.  Maybe make it part of getting, and keeping, a driver's license.

                Oh, and banning alcohol didn't work well the last time we tried that, but I'm open to increasing taxes on it.

                And as a runner, 8 minute miles for a 5k might be ambitious.  I mean, I can do it, but I know a lot of people that are in excellent health that can't.  You'd have to have a sliding scale to take age into account, too.  Not a terrible idea, though…

                  You pussy. That's my warm up or cool down.

                  Personally, I don't have a dog in the fight. If you guys are down with the government regulating your eating choices then so be it. I just have a problem with the government micromanaging my personal choices.

                  This is how a nanny state begins.

                    I don't give a shit about public health. Pigs > people.

                    So: meat should cost 1000 quid a gram, all drugs and weapons should be absolutely free and as easy to obtain as a loaf of bread.

                          Jody actually told me last night that I can get a pygmy pig for my upcoming 40th birthday. I've been working on that for years.

                          I guess she figured that'll be easier than the hippo I originally wanted.

                                Large cuffs have been around since the dawn of denim. Go big or go home?

                                  Slim, highly tapered denim, cuffed, showing lots of boot.

                                  Like I said originally, unpopular opinion…

                                        And it's just another reminder of why I'm not ;).  To be specific though I actually do have an account that I had to create for a reason I can't remember right now but I never use it.

                                            In construction the cuffs catch rocks and dirt that proceed to be draggedinto your car and house. And when you take your pants off it gets everywhere. Pass

                                            Maybe so. Maybe not
