Obama Administration Puts Firefighters Lives In Danger

From Firehouse.com: The continued funding of the National Fire Fighter Near-Miss Reporting System has officially been rejected and has not been awarded through the Fire Prevention and Safety Program of DHS. Since the program's inception, DHS/FEMA has provided $7 million to this program. The Near-Miss program has been an integral part of a system of most national fire service organizations that has reduced firefighter death and injury to the levels we see today-all funded through the AFG process.
NOTE: Due to the rejection, the National Fire Fighter Near-Miss program will end this Friday, Sept. 28 when the current grant period officially ends.  http://www.firehouse.com/article/10784861/goldfeder-death-of-the-near-miss-reporting-system
The program recorded near misses firefighters have encountered in fires and make recommendations on how to avoid these situations in the future.
But Obama and his ilk have decided firefighter lives are not that important but instead spend funding on these items:

• $700,000.00 for "recruiting" in a volunteer fire department that protects 10,000 people in one square mile
• $400,000.00 for "recruiting" in a fire district that protects 26,000 people in six square miles
• $1,700,000-plus for recruitment as well as fire equipment to one single volunteer fire department that has career personnel in their area on duty 24/7 - and in an area that has more fire apparatus available per square mile than perhaps anywhere in the United States?
