Papageorge 0 Posted October 27, 2002 There is a realy simple solution to this... Don't sell matchs, AND beer at the same time! But seriously... if someone is stupid enough to have a fire and let it get out of control... I think they deserve to lose all their stuff. After all Fire is Mother Natures way of killing off the stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Papageorge 0 Posted October 27, 2002 *sigh* Arsen, Letter box fire works, and accidents. Thats what you use to assualt my, If you are stupid enough to have a fire and let it get out of control you shouldn't have your stuff? Tisk tisk. You people. Where did I say if some random, slim %, kid lights a fire bomb huks it into your front window you shouldn't be able to call the fire Depart? The whole Point and objective of my previous post was, the amount of people on the fire Dept. should only go to people that really deserve it. And that morons that buy beer and matchs and burn things and let it get out of hand deserve what happens. But, yes, thanks for riping on that idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 28 Posted October 27, 2002 It was a silly idea, there are many many reasons fires start, most aren't caused by stupidity, by your rationale firefighters shouldn't go out to people trapped in cars caused by them driving too fast and having an accident...........

FSPilot 0 Posted October 27, 2002 And how are they supposed to find out which fires are accidental or not? The idea was silly, the fact that you're going on with it is... sillier. Trying to be nice here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bordoy 0 Posted October 28, 2002 Most fires are caused by stupidity. Leaving a fag end still on or a gas cooker still on, thats stupidity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLight 0 Posted October 28, 2002 Hmz, what the firemen did sounds rather dumb to me, i hope some of them were prepared to stay ready to help people in case of emergency. When you have such an important job you shouldn't do stuff like that. Basically they are playing with innocent ppl their lives... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
