SmokeEater Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 From another chaser friend of mine on FB. I'm seriously pissed off right now, because they all got too close and thrown, now FD/PD/EMS has to take time away from the residents to treat and deal with them. Stupid, if I sound like I'm on a high horse, I really don't care. This may finally be the last straw to bring some sort of regulation to chasing.

Superstorm93 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Honestly Bettes and his team are lucky to be alive. They were RIGHT in the f***ing path of that extremely violent tornado on the last live shot. People need to get their sh*t together because its starting to really put a bad light on chasers.

Ground Scouring Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 So the injuries are from chasers hit by a satellite tornado Freaking morons. If today emergency managers, residents, and first responders die due to the stupidity / fecklessness of these yahoos, my attitude toward chasing will sour significantly, unfortunately, due to the actions of so many idiots. This is unacceptable...but we may see mass casualties due to these people who have brought ill repute upon chasing as a prudent science. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
