My father is a long-time firefighter in a major city and this comment reads like you have no idea what firefighters actually do if you think they "do nothing compared to paramedics and the ambulance crew". They're two sides of the same coin and both of them are vital to rescue operations, but firefighters aren't just some dudes who roll up and pour a bucket of water on a campfire and drive away. They're EMTs, too, and often participate in casualty care when paramedics are busy or otherwise not on scene. Do nothing, my ass.
