This is what makes America great. Without men and women like our Firefighters and Emergency medical crews, many would have perished. They have saved countless lives, many times defying all odds for someone to live on. They are putting THEIR lives at risk for YOU. Do you see a fire engine with lights on and siren blaring? GET OUT OF THE WAY. They're not doing it for fun. Someone has placed an emergency call and needs their fast response. Please safely move out of their way. It may be YOU one day who needs their fast response. See fire hoses stretched across the road? DONT DRIVE ON THEM. They aren't doing that to annoy you. Just turn around and go the other way and find another route. It's likely they are fighting a large enough fire to save next door homes. Just be thankful it's not YOU and turn around. PAY ATTENTION.

Give them a 50% raise, that's more fitting for the job that they perform. Medals are nice but how about giving them something that they really need, want and deserve. a pay raise!!!
