How about some love for the JCFD this morning?

Not only do they rush into burning buildings to save lives, they ACT when they see their fellow citizens being attacked. That's right, firefighters with Engine Company 22 yesterday saw a man being yelled at by four hoods. When Captain Jack Johnson and firefighters John Amato, Wilson Carrera and Jonathan Rosado looked into the rear-view mirror after passing by they saw the four losers begin attacking the man. They turned the fire truck around and came back to help the victim and chased after the attackers catching one and turning him over to the Jersey City police.

The group had stolen the victim's cellphone, computer and other valuables and left him with a bleeding nose and swollen eyes so we are very thankful these Jersey City firefighters acted as they did.

The Jersey City FD, none finer

If you see a Jersey City firefighter give 'em the glad hand or just say thanks and understand the dangerous jobs they have. 14 Jersey City firemen were hospitalized in fighting a fire on Monday on Harmon St. Injuries from burns to back injuries to heat exhaustion were encountered. Thankfully they have all been released.

Jersey City had a visit last night and today from a certain overhyped political gadfly who if she had her way would disband the unions that represent these under appreciated heroes. Gee that'd be a stupid idea. These are the guys that are going to come save your life when the world comes crashing down, not Sarah Palin.
