Some jobs are just dangerous. That is how it is. Liberals just cannot accept that, because in Utopia, nobody dies because of some unexpected thing.

I worked in a sawmill and that’s a dangerous place. If there were as many sawmills as there are farms, there would be hundreds of sawmill deaths per year.

I ended up with a couple of broken ribs while 100% within safety procedures. I was in the chipper room when the chipper caught a log and smacked it against the shroud. The end of the log busted off and spun through the air and put me down hard and I was behind the chipper in the marked “safe” zone.

One of the old timers who had been a chopper pilot in Vietnam suggested getting some flak jackets for anybody who had to be in there.
