Comment by Todd McKee on December 6, 2008 at 1:09am: I think we need to continue to support our brother, guide him in the right direction. We truly don't even know the fact regarding this incident. We should wait for the facts before any type of judgement to be passed.

Comment by Katy Luetke on December 5, 2008 at 1:35am: While I don't know the conditions surrounding the incident, if you have reached this point, that you can't handle the stress...then don't come to work. Firefighter's love overtime. It's okay if we get to pull some extra shifts so you can cope with some stress ! Take care of yourself !

Comment by Ryan Edmondson on December 5, 2008 at 12:20am: hmm maybe he should hink about something less stressful, like a candy store job.

Comment by Wayne Benner Jr on December 4, 2008 at 9:36pm: Wow all that over water.

Comment by Ron Smith (a.k.a. G-Ron) on December 4, 2008 at 8:02pm: He was upset about the pace of the water supply........that's all.

Comment by Wayne Benner Jr on December 4, 2008 at 11:26am: If you watch the video you can hear the Evac tones in the background. Im wondering if he became upset that he or the fire department could not rescue someone that was inside and he just lost his cool. Stress hits everyone differently.
