Hey I pay all of my health care cost and that of my family too....it's time for unions to wake up smell the smoke....it's not Rome this time...

A beautifully worded statement Mr. Mayor. Thank you for the strength of your commitment to Providence and for highlighting the truth of the tiresome greed of the Firefighters Union. Its time for the Union to step down from their soapbox and into reality. Why do they believe that they deserve more than any other city employee, or more than any other firefighting union in the United States? The firefighters union has disgraced the city of Providence to the national media.

firefighters are risking their lives for whats best for all citizens of providence, you can't risk a few bucks to have these people serve YOU?

[limeymedic]

45,500 firefighters were injured saving life's on the fireground in 1999, twice that of civilians injured in fires.

Enough said!!!

Thanks for standing up for what's best for ALL the citizens of Providence and not just the entrenched powers and special interests :)

Please though, keep the government out of our rights to free speech and assembly :\

anyone notice that all other u tube comments about the mayor are blocked off? wonder why

[nuuch]

Too bad we can't watch the FD's rebuttle so I can see who is more full of shit

Ceprano is going to bankrupt this city and I hope he does. We need a scorched earth policy in Providence. Get rid of EVERYONE in Cicilline's employ including illegals in city hall. I doubt they are all checked out properly.

[goodguy309]

Gee, didn't Yesserman get his 'buds' a retroactive raise to the tune of $80K for the first year?

Didn't this mayor get rid of Ceprano when they needed a scapegoat for Cicilline's brothers snafu and then Cicilline spends close to $490K in total to prove everyone wrong?

Say, Cicilline, wouldn't you have saved the $490K AND the money you'll have to pay to Ceprano if you just would have said that YOUR management team screwed up? Ceprano didn't do it. You did.

Needless to say Doughty has hurt those people who work in hotels, restaurants and others who work in service industries who are trying to eeke out a living about half that of the firefighters.The mayors conference will not be as fruitful as it should have been.
