Heroes at Home: Firefighters

Fri, 27 Oct 2006 10:35:55 -0400 by Bull

It isn’t just on the battlefields of the Sandbox where you can find real American Heros. There are literally thousands of them right here at home. Some of them appear for all the World to be just regular Joes. Yet, they go about quietly doing millions of good deeds across our land making our lives easier.

Many are seen in one uniform or another in our townships and cities. I speak of none other than our valiant Police Officers and Firemen. They go about putting their lives in danger to protect us from the criminal element and the horrid destruction of fire.

Today, The Bull mourns the loss of four brave firefighters ~~killed~~ murdered while fighting a blaze set by a villanous arsonist. A fifth is in intensive care with burns over 95% of his body. At the time of this writing some 24,000 acres have been scorched in the Esperanza fire that was deliberately set for some sick reason beyond the ability of any Right-thinking American to comprehend.

A $100,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest of the person or people who started the blaze near Poppet Flat, CA. Authorities have also stated that when the sick arsonist is/are caught that they will face murder charges. In the not-so-humble opinion of The Bull, said bastard, (or bastards), should face the death penalty for the deaths of these American Heroes. Preferably death by burning at the stake.

That’s where I stand, and I’d gladly light the bonfire at the feet of the perps when caught. Don’t think so? Try me.

Bull, out.
