F the Boot!
Posted by: Boots McGee ()
Date: August 27, 2014 11:31PM

It's that time of year when asshole union firefighters take taxpayer equipment out for joyrides and create traffic jams with their Fill the Boot scam! Half the money goes in their pockets and another 40% to the election campaigns of corrupt leftwing politicians. The leftovers go to a so-called charity that has never accomplished anything. Enjoy!

Until I get verification from the captain of the Fairfax County Fire Department that they aren't stealing from the money, then I'll never give a cent.

I have other ways to give to Muscular Dystrophy, other ways where the overpaid, underworked, government-tit-sucking firemen don't steal 50% for their "pancake fund."

Any fireman who collects money at the intersections knowing that the Department steals half of it should be locked up in jail along with Jesse Jackson Junior.

Since when did begging become a legitimate way to raise funds? I seem to recall back in the day volunteer fire departments raising money with fairs and carnivals and raffles.

Right.

They take those boots back to the station and sit around the table and divvy up the "nice bills" (tens and up) and then pack the rest of it off as the charity haul.

Cash in the pocket is a tax free administrative fee.

The firefighters union is a big contributor to the dem-dominated BOS. That's why they let them do whatever they want with equipment paid for by taxpayers.

You know this how, exactly? Grow the F up. If you don't want to give then don't but for the love of God, stop whining.

Oh, and be sure not to call the people you belittle when you need them to put their lives on the line to help you out, okay little whiner? You're so smart I'm sure you can figure out how to extinguish a fire without their help.

Contact your supervisor. Tell them you want it to stop. Tell them you won't vote for them if they support its continuance.

Otherwise, writing about it on this blog won't do dick towards stopping it.

Please understand the Boot Fund:

Fill the Boot is a gimmick. The money collected is for the personal use of each Fire House. The Chief at each fire house decides how much to keep for themselves. They usually give about 20% to the "Boot Fund" and keep the rest.

This is not a lie. The "Boot Fund" money is spent on mostly food.

The "Boot Fund" provides funds for Holiday parties and gifts for retiring employees.

There is absolutely no accountability that's why it is so lucrative.

Cash is King. Even the firemen collecting have a rule they keep any twenty dollar bill they get (collect).


Next time you see a fire truck at your local Giant or Safeway check out their shopping cart. Usually it's breakfast shopping. The cart will be filled with NY strips, bacon, large eggs,assorted melons, hash brown potatoes and of course donuts.

Where do you think the money comes from? The three young firefighters filling the cart? Yea right they have over $200 dollars worth of sundries and they are paying for it?

No it's the "Boot Fund" thank you. Do you get free breakfast? A really nice breakfast.

If this doesn't bother you then fill that BOOT and fill a paid firefighters tummy.

Oh yea and those "Rain Checks" for golf the Chief gives away (he gets from the Park Authority) to his favorites to play on the clock.

All true!

First of all: you two are deranged enough to think that.

Seriously? If we eat each other out for "bullying" then what makes you think anyone would have each other's backs for stealing from a charity?


If you have an ACTUAL problem with the fill the boot, contact your district supervisor and tell them. I'm not kidding.

Trust me, the firefighters don't want to do this.

It's senior fire department staff and county politicians who make us dodge traffic so they can make their careers look good.


Call your local county officials and tell them to make it stop. Typing up a pissant post on this blog won't do shit towards stopping this yearly event.

They don’t want to be out there .
The county politicians know that collecting for MDA makes them look good when they can say that their county collected the most money. None of that money goes to the fire department or any of the firefighters out there. When it was pointed out that panhandling is illegal suddenly the county decided to drop their panhandling law that’s why you see the increase in bums on every street corner begging for money.

Yeah, MDA has been getting hundreds of millions in donations for decades but they haven't found a cure. They probably don't want to find a cure because they would lose all that money.

Found this a short while ago.

FXCO FF raised $456,000. How much of the total money collected is actually donated to MDA? if there are 2000 members of the fire dept union and each donated $20 a month for a payroll deduction they would have raised $480,000. Disappointed
to say the least.

You know what is ironic. The firefighters go out and collect for 4 days. Do you know how many of the firefighters put a few dollars in the boot that weekend? I've been in for 10 years and not a single FF told me they ever put a cent in that fucking boot.

However the firefighters give money to the union which in turns GIVES politicians tens of thousands of dollars. You got that right- FF don't give to the boot but give their money to the Union which in turn pays the politicians. What a crooked scheme
