What do you think of this:

Also, from what I've heard on the radio, Lancaster doesn't have it's own fire department(this may be wrong), so these people aren't paying taxes on a fire department anyway.

About 1/2 of the town people voted against helping this family out...I'm sure if one of their own family died fighting a fighter, they wouldn't refuse to pay towards the pension. Hopefully, it turns out for the positive.

Yeah, sounds like there's still hope with the provisional ballots.

As it stands, from what I read, it sucks. :-(

I came, I saw, I may just run away. I have stayed off-line all day until now, why did I come back to read this type of depressing human idiocy (the townsfolk, not you slappy).

I wonder how those 1600 or so people who voted against this would feel if the fire fighters decide not to risk their lives by entering house to save love ones.

Both my daughter and son in law are volunteer firefighters. This is a town loaded with selfish and uncaring people! Sickening.
