  • Ronald Curaba What about the white firefighters hired after 2009? Don't they get the same benefits? People skin color has nothing to do with this!
  • Maddie Sharp How very true--sort of defeating the purpose--same logic coming from the idiots who wrote the COMMON CORE--guess they didn't think that far in advance--but don't worry when they catch what they've done (because someone else had to point it out) they will continue their racist, slanted, bias, selection to advance the REFORM agenda--not to worry.
Yesterday, in the face of tragedy, we saw acts of incredible courage and humanity by New York's Bravest and first responders. To them, we have only one thing to say: THANK YOU!!!

If a firefighter is hurt protecting New York, they only receive $27 a day in disability protection. That's not right. ‪#‎standwithbravest‬
