Can we just all agree that general comments about an industry as a whole and the shortcomings of some of its workers are not direct personal attacks on anyone's family members?
Not specific to the post above because I've seen it at least 3 times already in this thread, both ways.
It is possible that fundmarks dad was a good worker and that cliff is right about some of the issues with firefighters being overpaid and their pensions crippling municipalities.
Most people are generalizing and I think we'd all be better off if there was an understanding that the comments, critical or positive, are not meant to label every person in that profession.
