Which I am certain they are. If I was a Moultonborough Fire Department or EMT person I would feel that this exemplifies how I was seen, now that such a posting, as the first one, is now on a local forum visited by people not from the area. A clown. A clown that "drops" women into chairs, can't run a Jon boat to save their lives, etc...Which is not the case as anyone whom has ever needed the Moultonborough Fire Department would know. Myself being one of them. I am not disrespecting either Department. More so showing what an unfair posting the first one was without all the facts. So things didn't go quite right that night. Is Tuftonboro without it's bad days as well or is Tuftonboro perfect? The webmaster can pull my pictures if he wants.....But maybe the first post which is highly disrespectful and accusatory, of the men and women who protect and serve us to be shown in such a bad light, should be taken down as well.
Wow, someone is certainly turning this into a personal battle. I feel like this forum should allow for information freely given about life on the lake. As an islander, I think it's important to know what their expectations should be. As a person who spent a lifetime in critical care nursing, I would be the last person to " disrespect " first responders. But I also found it frightening to discover such limitations in services. And so did the numerous people who witnessed what happened that night.
