Bob Dorn had some fun today, using some garden-variety stereotypes about liberals and conservatives, because I dared to confront a premise, proffered by OBRag’s Frank Gormlie, supporting a single-use plastic bag ban.

It’s simple — two 2-man teams properly stationed apart in one fire station’s “district” = shorter response times than one 4-man team. Lives are saved. Of that, there can be no doubt – and …
