Kidde is in the process of recalling millions of its fire extinguishers due to handles failing or the unit not working at all.
How many extinguishers do you have in your home, car, boat, etc? 4 for me and all are affected.

Do people actually have fire extinguishers? I found an old one in my house and I ended up using it as snow for my yard nativity

All considered that's not really a lot. I would expect it to be almost 1000x that number.

Yes, they're called sensible, responsible adults.

Do y'all fall asleep smoking cigarettes often or something?

And are you trying to call me not responsible? I already have my Christmas decorations up, bucko. And I saved serious money not having to buy fake snow

If your house catches fire and you don't have a fire extinguisher then insurance doesn't pay.

If it floods they only pay half.

Regardless of how I choose to live my life, I have the ability to extinguish and contain a small fire.

Should work wonders for you in the case of an electrical fire.

Sounds like you may live in a home plagued with issues. Never in my life have I needed to use a fire extinguisher. And everything I am around is inflammable.

Neither have I, but at least I'll have it if needed. I've also never needed my handgun??

I bet some of you have fire extinguishers in case of fire but don't have Jesus in case of rapture

Those extinguishers won't help them with the fires of hell.

House fires are very common comparatively, about 350,000 per year. Also, I have one in my car in the off chance someone is trapped inside a wrecked vehicle or engine fire.

How common are alien abductions in comparison?

You should be careful trying to help others during accidents. It could potentially expose you to litigation. Especially if your intended plan is to help others without any formal training.
