well... firemen at work

author says:

Rest assured that when they are called to work, they give it their all. Complete with their blood, sweat, and tears. And sometimes their lives. The ultimate in work. Remember 9-11 ?

Of course I remember 9-11. What does that have to do with this shot? There are certainly heroic firemen, just as there are heroic policemen, soldiers etc. But in our culture EVERYONE has to be a hero. I have gigantic amounts of respect for firemen, and there are heroic firemen, but that doesn't mean every fireman is a hero. There are heroic soldiers, but that doesn't mean every soldier is a hero. Everyone is supposed to "give it their all" when they show up to work. If you don't want to fight fires, don't become a fireman. It doesn't make you a hero. In America, all policemen are heroes, all firemen are heros, teachers are heroes, single mothers are heroes, the guy who works full time and coaches Little League is a hero etc. When everyone is a hero, it takes away from TRUE heroes.

author says:

I just made a very short statement of what I think of firemen. No harm, no foul.
