I have to chime in on this. First, I grieve for the firefighter's family. Just like soldiers and airmen during war, they know what the ultimate cost of there profession is. It's a prosecution issue, it shouldn't be family vengeance.

Then to argue the flip-side, this fire was commenced from a performing an illegal act. There is logic to that, apart from the Christmas tree. Non-union wiring may be an heated argument in court though.

That might happen at the end of December - no? What really explains these deaths - and what do you say to their children?

If you play with illegal fire works and start a fire that kills people your are going to jail.... and with the same logic, if you are using high energy sources to conspire in illegal activities that kills people you are going to jail...

If you kill a firefighter when doing something illegal, well then you deserve to be dragged out in the street.... and ..... grrrrrrrr.
