Still going....

Funny that this subject bring to light very similar sound that our Department has been battling for year now ( do More with Less). As I read through this, It almost brings me back to the same, damned if you do damned if you don't.. In one hand do nothing he didn't pay.. in the other save the house and pets (big unknown I was not on scene) and try to collect.. Both has their negative impacts one the FD did nothing and look like chumps in the media. the other set the precedence if you don't pay your house will still be saved and the FD has 0 funding in the end.. And if they try to collect by force the the look bad by being the Gov agency that is taking my house and the media rolls w/ it. In the end get educated get involved and go to your local FD and get informed. Scrappy said it best stop blaming other for you piss poor choices and own up to your F ing mistakes.. Lawyers are not the answer to your stupidity.
