    The city of El Monte clearly has no sense of humor or common sense. Instead of firing the lifeguards, they should have gotten raises for bringing such favorable publicity to the city. People would be flocking in from all over to use the pool and see the lifeguards from this fabulous video. Instead, all they're getting is bad publicity. Neither the public nor the city were harmed in any way by the making of this video. The gov't there is obviously a bunch of humorless, shortsighted, idiots.

    Bluefiremai, or whatever the fukk ur name is...u r one dumb ass piece of shit! I live in el monte all 18 years of my life I was born and raised here, yes we have gangs but I'm sorry if our city does not compare to ur Beverly hill suburbia bullshit. Ghetto? U dnt even know the definition of the word off the top of ur head. And even if u did it wouldn't even come close to describing my city. So why don't you do urself a favor and shove ur fancy suburbia bullshit outlook up ur ass, oh btw only out
