Jeez. I don't care what your political or racial views are. You never want to see a child limp and helpless like that.

@givinr In New York, other racial groups, mostly blacks, were blaming the NY Fire Department for "deliberately setting their hiring standards so high" that blacks could not pass. They also blamed FDNY for being racist and made them look as if they were some sort of a "modern KKK" department.
Looking at this vid i can say that these brave men and women do not look like racists and the only racists here are the minorities who tried to sue the Fire Department

@givinr
give it a couple of days. Then here will be a video of a child throwing a firecracker into a manhole and blowing him/herself up and folks here will be singing "darwin awards" theme in a choir.

I get what you are trying to say, but really?
The happiest day for a firefighter in my eyes would be to not have children with severe smoke inhalation.

Relax. I'm certain he wasn't suggesting that a firefighter was thrilled to have a half-dead child in his arms.
More than likely, peron was suggesting that being able to remove a child from a fire was what motivates them.

@crik true but he got to save a life, that's probably what he meant.

@gonehuntin I would give you a +1 if I could. I even gave medical attention to our enemies children. They are innocent and young - no matter how bad their parents are. A firefighter makes no differences as well, even he's a racist.

Awesome job.
Remind me again why race, and not competency is the number 1 priority for having this truly awesome job?

@RescueFirefighter ...Nothing, that's his point. It's PC groups inserting race where it does not belong. If you can do the job, great, color? who cares.

@RescueFirefighter
It has nothing to do with it.
And that's my point.
Every time I see you all doing truly heroic things, it bugs me to the core when I remember that racial quotas play a part in the hiring process.

@wharris i can see where your comming from to a point, but a lot more white guys get turned down from this job because the dept wants diversity otherwise the public may criticize us...a lot of times what i see is mostly blacks at a station with a lot of black people in the community, lots of hispanics in a hispanic community and white people in the mostly white communities...with a little bit of a mix in each station

So, let me get this straight. Building on fire. Parents are there. They know their kid is inside. They stand outside. I'd have died in the fire saving my kid.

@hunterr83
If you had died you wouldn't have saved anybody, you would have just been another body for firefights to risk their lives to get out.

@ProofOfPurchase In that case,I'd like to get the back story on this. No reason the parents should be outside unless they just got home and a saw the building on fire and firefighters were already inside. Meh, hard to believe.

Everybody says that until they feel the intensity of the heat, the smoke filling their lungs and the vision of less than a meter from their eyes.
But yes, I agree on the back-story part
If your house catches on fire while you're inside, priority is getting your children out.

@crik I felt the intensity of the flames, "tasted" the smoke and was lucky that I lived long enough in the house to know my way around not seeing anything. The fire was downstairs, started in the fuse box that's right under the staircase. The smoke had gone up all the way to the second floor but not a tenth of a second I thought about leaving without my kid. I had to go back down through the thickening smoke and the heat and we made it out safe. Irresponsible? Sure. The staircase was a More..

@Rie60 i can agree to that, but you got to stand back and let them work.. if you were calm we might let you ride in the front of the ambulance on the way to the hospital, but if you were Histerical you wouldnt be coming in my rig. no offense but they would be having to take of you as well devoting less time to your loved one! but none the less i hear ya man, its a shitty situation

Kid jobs are always bad. Usually spend the next 3 days unable to sleep. You're head plays games with you too. Kid starts to like kids you know. Families just freak the fuck out. Stress gets turned up to the max. You take your latex gloves off and sweat comes pouring out like waterfall or fountains out the rim when you clench your hand.
Firefighters got her out and that's good, but you have to get that cyanide antidote in them asap. When household items burn they produce some really nasty stuf More..
