Bet you're on welfare and food stamps too...it's all free right? Marion citizens are sick of their tax dollars used to protect these "towns" around it. No more free rides.

Makes perfect sense to me. With todays economy and lack of funding, cut off mutual aid. Protect your own because they won't...

If he wants payment.... HE NEEDS TO SEND A FUKIN BILL, I've been up there to fire house #1, for over 3 months & no one is capable of printing my bill & to F'n cheap to put a $.44 stamp on it! I guess I'll need to take him a pre addressed & stamped envelope, but even then I dought I will get it!

I'm not saying he is or isn't a sweet man, or that he is or isn't a good fireman.... I'm saying do make public statements to the press about bills that are owed to the fire Dept when citizens can't get a copy of their BILL!

I was up there again today and they told me they still don't have me a copy..... It's been 5 months and what's their excuses for that? "there not printed here", ok so where are they printed? I'LL GO THERE! but they wouldn't tell me, so again I left my name, address and phone number!

Im a fireman also and hes far from a good man.Hes tried to leave marion for years to come to west memphis and we cant stand him and he wont ever be the fire chief here.You guys are seeing what hes really made of.Hes a piece.Hes all about himself not for the betterment of marion or any town period.He wants to be a hero at others expense.Hes nothing to most outside of marion.

The Chief is a politician and runs gambling machines in all the bars around here from what a west memphis fireman told me that use to work for him on the side.So what im saying is your dealing with a thug liar politician.Normal for today.I wouldnt worry about a bill to him if youve tried to pay him and he doesnt get you a bill then he needs to shut up and stop bad mouthing all the country fire departments like he has.Just Saying.

What I dont understand is why the city cant seem to get it's act together and get a REAL full time fire department..

City services in this town are a joke!

Daily Horoscope for May 18

Sagittarius

Is someone wanting to prove a point and show what a free spirit they can be? Today, they could get involved with someone who's in complete contrast to their own personality or who everyone decides is wildly unsuitable as a prospective partner. The more anyone protests about this, the more determined this person will be to follow their heart. So keep quiet!
