>> And I showed you where you were wrong. >> I was a first responder under the FEMA umbrella. I know what a first responder is. You clearly don't. You can't show someone wrong when they are factually correct. You are either confused or lying, perhaps both. But there are no FEMA "first responders". Ever. There never have been, and there are good reasons for it. In testimony Feb. 15 to the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff noted that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) "is not – nor has it ever been – a first responder." Feb. 16, 2006 "For 25 years," he continued, "under our legal and constitutional framework, FEMA has worked to support state and local first responders during a disaster and provides assistance when a state makes a formal request for support." FEMA provides training for first responders and sometimes reimburses them for costs, and perhaps that's what you're talking about. But if you think FEMA is responsible for First Response you don't know crap about disasters.
