AND THEY'RE STAGGERED BY 15-30 SECONDS how can these cops conceivably believe that stopping traffic for runners that are staggered by a distance that they could allow 2 vehicles to go through is okay? Just for gay runners? If the people were walking, the cops wouldn't stop us, only for the runners! I forgot to call after I'd gotten home, because I needed to sleep after working graveyard, but this is absolutely unacceptable, and these police officers need to be sent back to traffic school, because clearly, they're too stupid to know when and when not to stop traffic AT A STOP SIGN

Driver 1121 This…read moremorning my fiance saw on Facebook that there was a beaver stuck in one of the sewer systems drain address of 99th and 6th place se in lake Stevens. We showed up to try and help and no one was there so we started checking out the drains in that area. During our search a city truck with sewer department on the side stopped and asked what we were doing. (Totally ok to do so). We explained what we were doing but then the driver started getting aggressive and we told him to just leave cause he was refusing to help us and only wanted to make stupid comments like "just let it die beavers don't matter. He then drove down the street because I told him to just leave because he was not helping but he then said to me F off and drove away. I then flipped him off and then 5 times after that just kept going back and forth down the street and each time when he passed he would talk shit then drive away. That's harrasment and pretty sad coming from a city employee who is paid by tax payer money to entice a fight over a beaver stuck in a drain. I care more about animals than people and will always do anything I can to help them. He also got pissy that I took the drain cover off. Then shortly after animal control drove by and I tried to stop them but they just kept going and didn't care even though the person who made post on FB said no one from the city could help. Next time we will handle ourselves and if any city person comes out I will tell them to leave and to go sit on their butt somewhere eating hostess doughnuts and chocolate milk. I don't appreciate the lack of respect from a city employee and expect better. The person who drives 1121 needs to be fired cause harrasment of civilians is also illegal. Have already escalated this to the is department and to the police department for not at all helping and being aggressive and don't care at all about animals. Saying the beaver should just die shows your a cold hearted person who hates animals and likely abuse them to. Hope this guys doesn't own any animals cause if he does I would feel terrible for the animals with someone who tells people to just let the animal die. Ya then have the beaver get stuck in a drain and cause a bigger issue? Completely shocked how stupid and incompetent people are now days. Do better city of lake Stevens don't hire a$$hats to work a job paid by the community. SMH

We followed it back to the station, where we were given a grand tour. The fireman (andy) showed us all the engines...how the trucks operate, where they chill waiting for the next call.

Most stations welcome the little ones, and have them get knowledge on how they operate, and what to do in a fire. If nothing else, give them our thanks for the job that they do.

Hello, My name is…read moreCaress Pina and I am the sister of a recent 911 caller to which members of the Snohomish County Fire District 1 responded. My sister is 19 and has sickle cell anemia. It is a life threatening chronic illness. The leading causes of death with this disease include severe pain all over the body, chest pain, shortness of breath, stroke, or catching a virus that their weak immune systems can't fight off. My sister suddenly went into a pain crisis accompanied by severe chest pain, severe shortness of breath, and vomiting. She called our brother to pick her up but I told her to call 911. As expected, the Emergency Vehicle arrived first. My sister was in the fetal position on the floor when they arrived. They took her vitals and saw her blood pressure was 170/100. Instead of giving her oxygen, they asked if she had taken her albuterol then whispered about whether she should take more puffs. They put a pulze ox on her finger and saw her oxygen levels were low but still did not give her oxygen. They then asked her what hospital she usually goes to, she told them Seattle Children's and they said they don't go that far. All this is going on amidst the responders making jokes and laughing about unrelated things. Finally whoever was in charge told her there isn't anything they can do as EMT's and silently waited for her to respond. My 19 year old sister is on the floor writhing in pain, gasping for air and those who are supposed to be responsible for her life are standing around making jokes and waiting for her to give them the okay to leave the scene. They asked her if she wanted to wait for the paramedic that goes to her hospital or wait for her 19 year old twin brother to take her instead of rushing her to the hospital for emergency care themselves. This is a gross failure to serve. They put her in even more danger by showing a lack of compassion and sheer ignorance to the magnitude of the situation. My sister could have died. My brother could have been caught in traffic and her condition could have worsened and she could have DIED because a room full of people who were supposed to care for her simply didn't. What's worse is they didn't even have the decency to call the hospital ahead of time to alert them of her arrival or explain the situation. She is now admitted at Settle Children's on the CANCER floor. That is how serious her condition is. I need to know what will be done. There needs to be training about chronic illness of ALL types and how to properly and effectively respond. Behaviors need to be corrected and those responders need to know that EVERY situation where someone calls 911 is an emergency and should be treated as such. They behaved unprofessionally and it's unacceptable. Just imagine being 19, being in a pain crisis, knowing your illness can kill you, calling 911 and having everyone arrive and stand around watching while you're curled up on the floor crying in pain and barely breathing.
