Fresno, Afghans, and fires OH MY!

So we’re in two wars, though in the United States you would never know it. We are also viewed, or have been viewed, as the big bully of the world. Well, although we may have screwed up Iraq due to ignorance on how to deal with terrorism us Californians aren’t letting that happen to Afghanistan. Anyone from Fresno should be proud that a Fresno fire department is training Afghan fireman to use modern equipment. Now while that might seem useless, the story gets better. Apparently we dug into pockets and pulled out a brand new fire truck and gear for a fire department in Kabul. Now that we all have the warm fuzzies lets dig into our pockets and pull out an electric train and enough money to fix the deficit.
