Top Issues Facing Responders:

Safety! Us as Firefighter are so Gunho about what we do that we do not look at the big picture , everyone must go home ! building, homes,vehicles ect.
can all be replaced , matter of fact the homes and building that we
are getting killed in are better insured than most of our Firemen.
and are being rebuilt without remorse,so the top issue for me is
SAFTEY!
