Did they get a victim with his lungs blown out by a 9mm yet?

Because if there aren't any 9mm lungblowers, it's just not a realistic medical drama.

ETA: seriously, if we keep watching it, they'll keep making it, whatever "it" is - what the market demands, yes? And if there's evidence of demand...? I never thought I'd see myself writing that there's an advantage to ads on TV, but, you can write the advertiser and tell them if they keep associating themselves with messages you disagree with, you'll stop buying their product. If there are no ads, all you can do is not tune in. (You can write, but if you still pay the subscription fee they won't care.)

Sounds like the nation's entire 2% (maybe) weird population all work in that one ER. Is there any straight majority characters? And if so why do they keep working in that toxic environment?

I actually liked stuff like "House," but the new woke shit just sticks in my craw and I won't waste some of my remaining heartbeats to watch it.
