I support REPEALING the ban on weapons in EMS vehicles. EMS personnel deal with life and death in sometimes extremely dangerous situations. THEY SHOULD NOT BE PREVENTED FROM PROTECTING THEMSELVES while rendering aid to victims. EMS personnel have demonstrated their committment to the community and reliabilty to use good judgement. They should be able to exercise their Constitutionally guaranteed right to bear arms for their own protection AND the protection of those under their care.
