-Should be able to carry legal weapons

-It depends on the culture

As State EMS Director, I made the commitment to go to court with every EMT and paramedic that has been assaulted, so that our county prosecutors (district attorneys) knew that State OEMS was paying attention and wanted to see people charged accurately. Because the criminal justice system is overwhelmed and wants to plead everything down.

N.J.S.A. 2C:12-1 Assault.

2C:12-1. Assault. b. Aggravated assault. A person is guilty of aggravated assault if he:

(5)Commits a simple assault as defined in subsection a. (1), (2) or (3) of this section upon:

NY Consolidated Laws, Penal Law §120.08 Assault on a peace officer, police officer, firefighter or emergency medical services professional.

ONLY two EMS Clinicians have ever been shot in NYC history:

Kings County Hospital Ambulance Attendant Hannah Callahan was shot and killed by an EDP in December 1954.

Ambulance Surgeon Thomas Garvey was shot in the shoulder by a drunk Swede in the back of the ambulance on the way to the hospital in Spanish Harlem in September 1894.

No EMT or Paramedic in NJ to date has ever been shot by somebody else since 1874.
