Also surprised noone has commented on the son going down to the station and punching the fire chief in his face. that a boy!

its a shame that the guy said he paid the fee last year and the year before but just forgot to pay this year.

FRPLG - that makes the most sense. have the county/township enter into a contract then pass the cost in taxes.

as americans we have to be careful about public policies favoring the wealthy, especially when it comes to basic services and rights.

a few years ago they debated about whether you could pay a fee to drive solo in the HOV lanes. this sounds good and all but really it is saying rich people dont have to wait in traffic like the poor people.
Depending on where the fire was perhaps the animals were trapped? I find it hard to believe nobody thought about trying to open a door.

As far as his son, yeah good for him. Now he's up for a felony. Smart move. So now they can tack on a bunch of legal fees in addition to having to find a new place to live.
