  1. You could sue the company and the chief, bankrupt them, and they still wouldn't get it.

  2. The chief was clearly in the wrong and being disorderly in public and the cop did nothing or say anything to him about his actions. He and his two bullies continued this confrontation after the guy backed off. Real tuff guys.

  3. Goon Squad Fire Dept.

     

    The Chief and hs two red shirts should be made to apologize to the photographer before the "chief' if terminated from employment.

  4. Good to see Chief Caldron is active in the Boy Scouts of America. 

    His uniform certainly "takes it to the next level".
