One of the most dangerous aspects of both Public Safety and Law Enforcement is dealing with unknowns. Over the last decade the proliferation of synthetic drugs, manufacturing and distribution of narcotics has created extreme hazards for Public Safety. Personnel cannot protect both themselves and the public, remember, "If you can't recognize a hazard, you can't protect yourself"
