@MyNameIsFailWhale Yes, population is growing in the country, but thanks to the government's extreme spending, they just lay of some of the police and firefighters. For example here in california, a city laid of a couple of police officers, because the government continued to spend.
Wow, great video. Did the Mayor of Columbus make that? A city Councilperson perhaps. I doubt it. Once again, firefighters have to justify protecting taxpayers and themselves while politicians are off cutting a ribbon for a new park or sidewalk.
Politicians & citizens alike forget that we don't get paid for what we do. We get paid for what we are willing to do. A Fire Dept. is an insurance policy. It's expensive and most people never get "good value" on what they pay, just like regular insurance. You can save money by canceling your insurance, and for that savings, you risk losing everything.
I bet that woman is glad those firefighters were still working there.
Stand Strong Brothers !!! Great Vid Well Done . This is what is needed start also a "cause page" on face book and get it sent through the job Friend list ---families Friends, niegbors.
I wish some of the politicians in Michigan could see this video... 2 people have died in my city alone because they laid off firefighters and staffed stations with only a squad. (no water) Nearest engine took an additional 5 minutes to get on scene in which time the victim died.
Excellent video. You did an awesome job. I hope the situation ends well for the brothers in Columbus and you guys don't suffer any layoffs. Stay safe.
I can never understand how firefighters can get laid off. Populations are growing, not decreasing. -_-

Good job brother. As you know, unless they can see for themself what is at stake, many times the bean counters won't get the message.
