    The female commentator says multiple times that the firefighters are in a "surround and drown" situation here, and that the FF's were in a
    "Defensive Mode" and was totally wrong! She should brush-up on her knowledge of fire terminology!

    to the news reporters, that is a 3 story building. it is more than 20 feet tall. which is why its 3 stories tall. look at the adjacent building next to it. get your facts in order.

    Know the people that lived there. A guy had an altercation with the police for HOURS before he set this fire to the building. Two kitties and one dog died. Very sad

    Guys, when the smoke turns from black to gray, the firefighters are getting a handle on things. White smoke is not smoke, it is steam, meaning that the fuel has been cooled to the point where burning can no longer occur. Just thought yall should know, for your listeners to know that progress is being made.

    There is absolutely no need to be on the roof at that point, it's completely vented. The Chief, or Incident Commander, should have their butt chewed off for leaving those guys up there so long. They're doing absolutely nothing but risking their lives for nothing at that point. Lucky they weren't all killed in a collapse.

      I agree completely. Loosing one fireman from him/her being on that roof is not worth trying to save five buildings. The fire had vented the roof long ago so they didn't need to be there.
