Man dies as EPA mandated device forces ambulance to shut down way to hospital ...................................................................... 05/31/2013....... dailycaller.com A vehicle emissions reduction device, which is mandated by the Environmental Protection Agency, forced an ambulance to shut down while carrying a suspect who was shot by Washington, D.C., police. The EPA mandated device is meant to reduce diesel emissions and is required to be placed on all newer model diesel vehicles. The device can burn off diesel toxins automatically or manually, but if neither of those happen during the “re-generating cycle,” warning lights pop on and the vehicle is eventually forced to shut down. “To my knowledge it’s never created a problem for us, but something different happened on this call,” DC Fire Deputy Chief John Donnelly told WUSA9, adding that it can be challenging to work within federal regulations. “We’re not in a position to fight the EPA regulations and we’re not even going to try,” Donnelly added. Donnelly said that the ambulance will be examined to see exactly what caused it to go into shutdown mode. WUSA9 reports the ambulance stopped before it could reach the hospital. Another ambulance came to pick up the suspect 7 minutes after the first one stopped, and the suspect was pronounced dead on arrival at Howard University Hospital. Read more: dailycaller.com

Really? So should be dissolve the army, police, issue everyone an arsenal and let every one fend for themselves? If you say no, then tell me where the limits of government lie. I strongly encourage you to educate yourself on enlightenment principles. Natural rights do not interfere with the healthy formation of communities, where individuals join with others out of love and mutual benefit, including the formation of alliances, the provision of security and defense forces, and other necessary services. Really dude, it would be to your benefit to consider the advantages of a free society. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. --That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness." -- Jefferson et al,
