Another house burned down, Firefighters watched again..

I would be jumping for joy.

She had homeowners insurance right?

I wonder how the insurance company would fare doing battle over who pays for the house that they watched burn?

Fukkit,,,

================================================

Not MY fault YOU are too stupid to buy STANDARD FIRE INSURANCE,,

It IS a great "investment" for times like this.

Let them fight it out

I paid my premiums,,,

PISS OFF

:Hrmmm1:

So you have capable men fully equipped and you see nothing wrong with watching someones house burning to the ground. Well hell, lets save money and not even have the firemen come out. Im sure the fire department can check on a computer to see who is paid up. No need to waste all that fuel is there.

They go out because if someone is trapped, they will rescue them. However, after all people are out, they will let the structure burn. No sense in them risking a person to help someone who clearly doesn't have the will to help their own self by paying the $75 fee. I'm under the same type of fire protection and pay $100/year. But, my homeowner's insurance is lower because I do have that fire protection as opposed to having to wait for trucks to come in from the city or from the next county. Most people don't realize that they are already benefiting from the volunteer fire department long before they ever have to call them. Without my fire protection, my homeowner's insurance would be about $600/year more than what it is. I'll gladly pay the $100 fee for a $600 discount.

I live in Los Angeles and I was ran over by a van and the fire department sent an ambulance right down the street from where I live. Then they sent me a $1000.00 bill for the 2 mile ride. So I ask you why do I pay taxes?

no its not the same thing.

the fire department in question was not in their jursidiction. the $75 fee is for those who want services of that fire department but live outside its boundries

Then they should not have bothered to show up.

Then they should not have bothered to show up.

and what do u make a year 200,000 grand and what do u do?

and how can i work for u so i can have these rights?

its weird to see the rich its like we are dogs or cats

so u cant surport any human that has nothing if there house is burnt to the ground and they have 20 dollars so u tell them to go invest in a motel?

they showed up to make sure no one was in danger and to keep the fire from spreading.

Are you talking to me? I make $33,000/year. And, $100 of that is sent to the fire department (St. Jude gets $100 each year, too, in case you are interested). I budget the fire coverage on the same line as my homeowner's insurance and add an extra $8/mo to my tax/insurance/fire escrow savings account to cover it. It's really not that difficult. Forego one 6-pack per month and pay your damn fire tax.

here is where i dont like u


i make under 400 a month in the usa

but i goto work pay taxes for basic needs

then pan across the world there getting weapons and no water no power give me a break USA is the same as the rest of the world right?

Fair enough. I'm assuming that had lives been at risk the men would have saved a person trapped inside but the homeowner chose not to pay for their fire fighting services knowing that they had stood by and watched a house burn the year before. The firemen did the right thing.

your not getting it look up your countie

bullshit

you don't take people's WORD for it that there's no-one in there.

you put the fire out and find out for yourself that it's clear.

it's a fucking disgrace that things like this happen in a so called 'civilised' country.

Some basic typing and English skills may help.

well you do have a point about not taking anyones word on whether or not someone is inside.

and for all we know they did check.

This is true. If you have a few folks outside claiming the house is empty and you later find a body.....probably was more going on than just a simple accidental house fire.

The South Fulton Fire Department made national news last year after they refused to put out a house fire due to an unpaid fire subscription fee, and it appears that policy has not changed.

Homeowner Vicky Bell watched her home burn to the ground on Monday while firefighters stood behind her looking on, according to WPSD-TV.

While the city provides fire service free of charge to its residents, it requires an annual $75 fee for homeowners who live in unincorporated areas of Obion County -- which doesn't have its own fire department.

This happened last year sometime and people whined then. The chief stood his ground. I hope he stands strong once again.

You don't buy car insurance after an accident do you? It sucks that the house burned down and they watched it, but she admitted she knew about the policy and chose to not pay.

Bad decision on her part, not the chief's.
