You're Losing Your "Grip", Haman!!

Got this while I was out today picking up some things, and its very painfully obvious that Haman is losing his control. Just how much so, remains to be seen, but this made for some VERY interesting reading.

Here is some additional information from the "Unconnected Volunteer Firefighters of Bensalem".

The paid firefighter that attacked a Newport Fire Company member and damaged the member's personal vehicle STILL has not been charged with the crimes he committed despite numerous fire company witnesses and doctors reports.

The politically connected fire official that works for the school district STILL has not been charged with getting paid for seeing his girlfriend while he was supposed to be working.

Despite requests for an investigation into the township training center fiasco, no one has been called on the carpet to explain why we spent almost as much as the County did for their new facility, yet our facility DOES NOT meet our needs. Despite the fact that township officials were told the County was building a facility capable of fulfilling all our needs, they built that disaster. The sad part is, township officials know it and still allow the people who made the mess to remain in charge.

The paid fire department is bleeding money. The township failed to properly budget and provide accurate information on the grant application. This resulted in an ever growing budget gap. Instead of addressing the issues, they point at the volunteer fire service and complain that WE cost too much and do not properly budget our money! You have got to be kidding! You make a mess and blame it on us? The paid fire department HAS NOT increased inspections or helped man the volunteer fire companies during the day. Instead, because of miss management and poor equipment selection, volunteer fire company engines are being used to drive around the township during the day. This reduces the life span of the volunteer engine and increases the wear and tear. Meanwhile, the township engine continues under yet ANOTHER repair issue and remains out of service! They did buy an $80,000.00 utility vehicle instead of purchasing a quality used fire engine for UNDER $80,000.00 Despite all of this, they remain in charge!

At a recent meeting of the members of the Pennsylvania Yacht Club some interesting information was provided to the members. The Mayor and Director of Public Safety claimed that the Union Fire company "bit off more than they could chew" referring to the new marine unit. The Public Safety Director told members of the Yacht Club that the fire company cannot afford the new fire boat. The Public Safety Director told a member of the Board of Directors that if the Mayor said they could help the Union Fire Company by docking the boat at the Yacht Club it would be okay with him. The Mayor told a member of the Board of Directors that if it was okay with the Director of Public Safety, he saw no problem with docking the boat there? Can anyone say "left hand, meet right hand"?

Unless Union Fire Company is doing something different, we all budget properly to include maintenance and upkeep. The township taking away 20% percent of our budgets to pay for the program that THEY FAILED TO PROPERLY BUDGET FOR has affected ALL of our fire companies. We now learned that not only did the township force Union to pay for its own insurance for the new fire boat, the Public Safety Director forced them to maintain a certain amount of coverage too!

I guess as long as those in charge point at the volunteer fire service they won't have to answer ANY questions about their conduct!

Several of us attended the Civil War re-enactment this past weekend. The fire company was there quietly providing service to the community. Where was the Mayor's photographer for that?

Yeah, "your Majesty"!!! Where were you with this?? Based on this, it sounds obvious to me, that you LIED in 2009, when you said that you don't get involved in police affairs/..business. While were at it Haman, if the same assault done to a volunteer fire fighter, was done to a Bensalem cop, would the person STILL be allowed to roam free, with NO consequences?? In other words, if the same person, a paid fire fighter did this to a Bensalem cop, would you have the person charged criminally?? As for you fire fighters (Mainly Union, those who have approached me, and those who have recently come to their senses.), all I can say to you, is........................................

GET OFF YOUR ASSES, AND FIGHT!!!
