You would not make that comment if you had seen the video taken from the back of the building. It is horrifying. I live across the street and these are my neighbors, who were effected. And to question the protocols of the FDNY? Viewing this video taught me how well trained they are—warriors in battle—very few men can fill their shoes—and that’s all I have to say to you.
