  2. Thoughts and prayers go out to Firefighter Joyce, his family, and Yonkers Fire.
  3. I understand that completely, and I agree yet again. It'd be great to be able to have some more revenue to offset the current deficit. I'm not trying to take away anything from the L.E. involved, kudos either way, but it might be time for our government to take consider it.
  4. You're not alone on that one. I believe that it should be legalized, regulated, and taxed like tobacco and alcohol. However, until then...it's off limits. Just my $0.02.
  5. Ok - Thanks I knew that they were civil service so they would be all the same. I was just wondering if the ranks would be 'honored' (I guess that's a better word to use in this case) if YPD transferred to a WCPD precinct. Thanks again.
  6. Lets say hypothetically that YPD was 'eliminated' (made into a WCPD precinct). What would happen to the officers with rank? Those ranks wouldn't transfer as well correct? That'd be an ugly situation IMO.

  10. http://www.lohud.com/article/20090312/NEWS02/903120492 Found this interesting...I wonder what the rate of false alarms would be due to cars backfiring, or other similar sounds. Anyone have any additional information on how the system works?
