General Discussion Border Patrol agents arrested firefighters fighting Washington wildfire after they asked the fire crew to line up to check their IDs.

What do we all think of this? Seems pretty nuts to me. They are actively getting in the way of wildlands guys as they do their job out there. I dont think this should be allowed or encouraged. Firefighting is a lot more important than .... risking 20 guys dressed exactly like firefighters crossing the Canadian border?

15 karma in 3 years? I'm not even going to bother asking you for a source.

Haha check it out, Borel Fire, kern county, ca… Google it if you want, don’t care one way or another. Second if you were as good as you think you are you wouldn’t be riding backwards… you would be making command decisions… now be a good ff and go clean up.

Lol. First off: riding backwards is the second-best job on the truck, next to driving it. Second off: cleaning up one's own messes is the mark of a good citizen. Cleaning up after lazy officers is the mark of a good firefighter. Third off: I looked through the first 4 pages of search results for "Borel Fire, kern county, ca" and "Borel Fire, kern county, ca firefighters arrested", and couldn't find any reference to what you are talking about. Nice try, Sir. Enjoy your thirsty fapping.

Departments still have dalmations? That would be pretty dope.
