When Firemen work, they work their asses off fighting fires.
They also train in the hours they are working.What are they suppost to do when their training is done and there are no fires to fight? Do people want them to start fires so they have something to do?
I dont begudge firemen relaxing in their down time.

Councilwoman Jones appears to be systematically stoking division and fanning hate with her repeated attacks on firefighters (and the police as I noticed in her column posted in Post #7).

Most firemen do alo0t more than just fires. My hubby worked as a firefighter for 33 yrs and 95% or higher of all their calls were ‘rescues’. He worked at the busiest station in our county for about 15 yrs. and got calls from hang nails to contract murders. In his 48 hr shift they would do 20 or more calls.
