I think it’s the risk of having a hypo that bans ya. Or even maybe it’s just a aryan purity thing.

It has been reported that roughly 100 U.S. firefighters are convicted of arson each year.[3][4]

I have this weird suspicion that these kinds of numbers don’t translate in other countries but I could be wrong

when I was in the church I was taught sex was like fire and that when it was in the place it was meant to be like a fireplace (marriage) then it was good but when it was in the middle of the living room (out of marriage) it was less good

it's people with a saviour complex

some firefighters get a real kick out of busting in, putting out a fire, and being labelled a hero. a small number get so much of a kick it that when things get slow, they start jonesing for a fire to happen so that they can get their fix. an even smaller number get so worked up that they end up taking things into their own hands to make that happen.

those people exist everywhere. it really comes down to whether other countries do a better job of weeding them out or otherwise keeping them under control.

so what you're saying is that we'd have a better time if we collectively decided to treat firemen like poo poo?

You have to actually be in shape to be a firefighter. Not to be a cop.

There were a lot of firefighters at my old gym. They'd train there in general and to practice for their fitness test, which involved them shouldering a 60 pound hose and climbing a million stares... you'd see them working out on the stair master with this giant hose the gym had for that exact purpose, it was nuts.

i always liked the story of the schiit audio company (they make desktop DACs and amps), where the owner of the company was working out of his garage. they had an HOA that was complaining they were running a business from the garage and it wasn't allowed. the guy told them that he was going to erect a giant antenna for his ham radio setup and they couldn't block him because it was part of essential emergency comm service. they quickly backed down and let him go back to working in his garage.
