    Attacks against Seattle firefighters lead to new approaches when handling calls

    Attacks on FFs and EMS members, as well as POs, are not new. My father, a BC, was knocked out and had his jaw broken when attacked at an all hands back in the 1980s. It was his last run. Attacks have certainly occurred probably since fire departments and emergency organizations were...

    OUR MILITARY.

    Maybe Gasoline Gomez started the $1.2B fire. Someone started that fire.

    Walmart suit

    I believe the law limits the suit to $5M total - not $5M per organization listed. Walmart acknowledges total damages exceeds the $5M limit. It is also odd that the suit notes shutting off the sprinkler system contributed to the excessive destruction - but how does the 30 volunteer companies...

    Walmart suit

    Walmat has named 34 fire departments and fire organizations, to include a fire buff organization and the Indinianapolis fire marshal in their suit admitting a $5M Indiana state cap for damages. Most are small departments and it would appear Walmart is blaming all involved. The suit seems...

    NYC BUILT MIGRANT TENT CITY.

    What is the cost? There are never disclosures about costs any more. Many programs and initiatives for illegal immigration, homeless, electric cars, environment, etc. without telling taxpayers costs and where the money is coming from. No accountability. No evaluation of program effectiveness...

    TIME TO DUMP SOME HUMPS.

    Nothing like senior leaders setting the example for their organizations. Message - don't live in NYC if you are a cop.

    TIME TO DUMP SOME HUMPS.

    Sounds fair. Reward people who broke the law and probably introduced countless kids to pot and illegal drug use. That's what we do today - reward people who break laws and people who don't pay their debts. And no one cares - impacts, precedents or costs.

    “Jab Mandate”-Update

    Common sense and collective bargaining contracts prevail over politics. Sad that political leaders don't even care about the people they fired.

    STREET STRUCTURES.

    There are bike lanes in many places which are set apart by barriers - which can cause a truck company a floor on their aerial ladder or tower. Boston has several. And the bike paths are an illusion which offers no real protection for bikers and often encourages dangerous use on high volume and...

    9/12/2022 Staten Island 10-75 Box 4807

    It's not only about the number of runs. A lot of very critical firehouses would be closed if number of runs were the main criteria.

    With 87 and 84 not availabe, it is a 6 mile run for L 82 as the 2nd due truck for the Tottenville 10-75 and even longer for a FAST truck. South Shore is going to need another firehouse probably Pleasant Plains area as SS continues to grow.
