Good morning.
"If you live in a rural area with a volunteer fire department it is a good idea to join, otherwise...."
I live in a rural area and the only people who are members of our volunteer fire department are the ones fighting the fires and saving the lives.
They are on the scene within minutes, no matter the time of day, have literally saved my life twice in the last ten years and there hasn't been a murmur about "dues. In our case they are funded by a property tax assessment and donations, rather than dues, but our good volunteers wouldn't think of not doing their job because of money.
If this went down as it is reported, this is a criminal act. The other side of the coin is that this shows how we need to take care of the folks who take care of us.

Even if it was a meth lab operation?
I'm not saying it was. The possibility exists though.
