  1. als - I thought I pissed you off or something. the reason for my post was to just say that I personally feel safer that if I need a bus at 3AM PC EMS is already there in their quarters...maybe thats just what I'm used to..who knows. Thanks for the constructive critism. BTW, i'm not saying the fire based EMS do a bad job!!! anyone in these fields are to be looked up to, I think.
  2. als - im not bashing anyone or their system, i'm just saying how I feel about it. and the tv comment is because of a little situation around here from what i'm told. again, i'm just saying how I feel.
  3. mike- everyone's got their own view on stuff and where ever you go things are done differently...that was just my opinion..i was a little ticked off when iI wrote that anyways..needed a place to vent
  4. all news 12 is that they are a bunch of "news casters" that think they work for Westchester County and are intitled to something 'higher up'. All of them on that channel think their $h!t doesn't stink and they can get away with mindless talk and crappy segways...it's horrible..really really horrible. I wish some entity would hire someone just to observe how $h!tty of a job they do! They should recommend to some council voted on by all Westchester residents and hold a meeting and have News 12 dropped off the air and have Brian Conybear and the stupid weather guy publicly humiliated
  5. Listen...Firefighters are Firefighters. Why hold up an Engine for an EMS call when the PD is there and the bus is there and a medic is there... Why deprive the municipality of fire protection?? EMS should not be a part of the fire department unless it gets the paid guys up and out doing something better than watching TV all day. Port Chester VAC is now Port Chester EMS. There's people there all the time and they do a hell of a job!! I think that if EMS was run solely by the PD where your property tax just covers it or something than everything would be run better... The EMS personnel work for the 'town', they slack off and make money..it's all good..and they're doing their job. Does anyone complain about police not getting to a call?? Not where I live. Most of the time the desk sarg. calls one car and three show up..why can't EMS be run like this? Too many times I hear (NOT BASHING...JUST MAKING AN EXAMPLE) KEC625 Somers, an EMT for the ambulance and a driver is still needed for E183 to respond...or 60-Control to Hawthorn 3rd and final dispatch...I know when I call for an ambulace, the people are there and ready to respond and not holding any other agency up. Port Chester, Rye, & Rye Brook all use one EMS provider and for the extremely high volume of calls, the bus always gets there on time...dispathced by PD. Remember this is only my opinion.
  6. does this include when you cross the double yellows and come back across the road to back the rig in. I know people who chased after cars in the firetruck that didn't yield to the truck when it was trying to back in.

  11. Anyone ever watch Family Guy?... You know their news channel Quahog News 5...its all adult humor and jokes but they do a better job than News 12!!!!!!!!! Like someone said in another thread...it might have been RWC130, you have to watch channel 12 with the mute on. My bad if it wasn't RWC.
