7. The reasoning they gave was bullshit

Supposedly he was denied because he wasn't in any more danger at the time than the general public was--which in the abstract is true; pretty much everyone in Joplin was in mortal peril at the time.

The problem is, there are a LOT of things you do at work that don't put you in any more danger than the general public is in, but if you are at work and injure yourself doing them, worker's comp pays.
