Was the fire department really afraid someone was going to try setting a fire truck on fire? And if they did try it, wouldn't the comedy of the situation make it worthwhile? Fortunately, the fire department changed its mind the next day, and flags are back on the trucks now.

I can take you to about eight fire stations right now that have a photo of the whole staff in silly poses in front of a burning house...half of em' smoking cigarettes.......If you are human and live indoors you'd be stupid not to appreciate a fireman and the job he does.

They have no idea how heavy everything is and how much it physically drains you. Plus people think running into a burning building is easy, well I have news for them it's not. It just pisses me off when people rip on firefighters when they don't know anything about firefighting, but if it was their house on fire who do you think they are going to call.

And Second The guy using the dinky fire extinguisher isn't a firefighter notice that he isn't wearing any turn-out gear. All fire fighters at the scene of a fire must have turn-out gear. He was just a bystander helping out.
