    I know a firefighter who is a captain in California of a station, he’s the biggest hardcore trump fanatic and incredibly racist. Have the day you deserve, my dude!

      I make it my secondary goals when hanging around the station (am firefighter) to chime in and knock down any pro trump (heck pro state) rhetoric pretty quickly. It’s worked on a few so far.

        I really appreciate you. It’s really hard in a professional setting to speak up against your colleagues. Thank you for your courage to stand your ground and call out hatred when you see it.
