Any thread or forum that degrades the men and women of the FDNY and NYPD isn't worth reading. Whether a Chqminade parent made this comment or some other idiot, Ask yourself where you were in the days and months after 9/11 when they were digging out bodies and going to funerals. Better yet, how willing are you to go into a burning building or patrol a housing project for the good of others. Your kids would be better off as members of those departments. They would definitely have superior leadership and direction than they are getting at home. Done with this crap.


It's a choice to be a fire fighter or in law enforcement. A well paying choice with lots of great benefits. Lots of bad apples in that group as well as good ones. When you CHOOSE this career if comes with risks as well as many great bonuses, good pay and pension. Just like the kids who commit to academies and get free tuition in exchange for service. It's a job. Now the volunteers who risk their life without any monetary bonus are another story.
