Poor and uneducated people are the scum of the earth

I was too lazy to go to medical school so I just became a paramedic instead, and so far I hate this job so much. I always get called into poor neighborhoods where it's some drug addict or other form of degenerate that brought their injury upon themselves. I ran over someone with my ambulance once because they held a gun at me for not getting there fast enough. I regret nothing and he deserved it, the judge agreed with me and he's still alive so it really doesn't matter. I just can't stand 99% of the people I get called to, some of them deserve their sicknesses and injuries.

Don't cops usually get called to these types of situations as well?

Working a job you hate is your life.

I'd contend that the loud, educated and ignorant are worse than the poor and uneducated. At least the poor and uneducated have a reasonable excuse for being the way they are; people who are educated, yet still manage to act just as irrationally lack said excuse.

Now, I don't blame you for running the person over for pulling a gun on you (I probably would've done the same thing and maybe even enjoyed it; my personal eccentricity), but grouping the "poor and uneducated" in a fit of emotional frustration isn't exactly a well thought out response.
