Backfire & Backlash Over Weaponizing the Fire Department #LetItBurn #UpYourInsurance

This isn’t the first attempt to militarize the fire service. A previous effort under the so-called “Hometown Security Act” was thwarted when the Fire Chief at the time had the courage to resist and refused to allow the fire department to be corrupted by council overreach.
Tonight, the world will see whether North Huron’s firefighters still carry that same courage and commitment to saving lives—or whether their leadership will kneel to the corporate will of the Municipality of North Huron.
Furious citizens are already vowing not to call the fire department if their homes catch fire.
“Why would I? I’m not inviting by-law officers dressed as firefighters into my home to rifle through my bedroom, check my medicine cabinet, count my pets, measure my grass, or inspect for chickens.”
“Let it burn. It’s better for your insurance claim if the house is reduced to ashes anyway.”
“If the fire department accepts these powers, I’ll treat them the same as any other burglar or trespasser.”
“If these tyrants pull off this power grab, it’s time to shoot, shovel, and shut up.”
