They Lived And Died As Heroes

2 New York Firefighters were killed early Christmas Eve Morning, and 2 more were injured, after attempting to battle a Residential Fire that was set as an apparent trap for first responders.

“It does appear that it was a trap that was set for first responders, but the cause or reasons we don’t have at this time,” said Webster Police Chief Gerald Pickering said describing the scene where shots were fired at West Webster firefighters when they arrived at 5:35 a.m to battle the blaze along Lake Road in Webster, which is about 10 miles west of Rochester.

The apparent gunman was found dead in an area outside the scene, but it’s unclear if he was killed with a self-inflicted gunshot or if it was from a weapon from a police officer who was chasing him.

Firefighters Mike Chiapperini, also a lieutenant and public information officer and Tomasz Kaczowka, he’s a West Webster firefighter and 911 dispatcher were killed in incident, Pickering said.

One can only wonder why this year is culminating to an end riddled with gun violence and shootings.  People are losing their lives senselessly, and in this situation, those who lost their lives are men who dedicated their lives to the act of heroic service.

Our Prayers are with all affected by this situation

Chiapperini was described by Pickering as lifelong firefighter who started with the department’s explorer program and has about 20 years of experience. Kaczowka was a younger firefighter, he said.

West Webster firefighters Joseph Hofsetter and Theodore Scardino seriously injured and are at at Strong Memorial Hospital with gunshot wounds, a hospital spokeswoman said. She said at at noon press conference, that Scardino had had injuries to chest and lungs. Hofsetter was injured in pelvis.

Pickering said that one of the injured firefighters made his way across a bridge to get to safety. The other three had to be rescued by police who arrived on the scene.

“These are volunteers who get up in the middle of the night to fight fires, they don’t expect to be shot and killed,” a tearful Pickering said at the press conference.

No details were released on the gunman. Pickering said he was found dead at the scene with the apparent weapons used in the shootings.

The morning scene was described as chaotic as police and firefighters dealt with an immense blaze as well as gunshots,  local news station WHAM-TV  reports. The station also reports the firefighters who are involved are volunteer firefighters.

“I’m not aware of anything like this happening in Webster, obviously not a firefighter being fired upon,” Webster Fire Marshal Rob Boutillier told the Democrat & Chronicle.  Pickering described Webster as resort lakeside community that is quiet and usually peaceful.

There at least four houses that have been damaged by the fire along Lake Road, WHAM-TV reported. Firefighters had to leave the scene and stop battling the blazes while police secured the scene. They are back to fighting the fires, the station reports. They continue to battle the blaze.

News of the deaths spread quickly through social media.

Video Surfaces Of Mayhem Outside Of Batman Massacre In Aurora, Colorado posted by Garry "Prophecy" Sun on July 20, 2012

Video has just surfaced of the mayhem that occurred just outside of the Aurora, Colorado Movie Theater’s Midnight Showing of “Batman: The Dark Knight Rises“, Where apprehended shooter James Holmes opened fire on the entire theater, claiming to be “The Joker” wearing Red Hair.

It is reported that James used 3 different guns during his massacre, an AR-15, a Glock 40 and a Remington 870.

At least 12 people have been killed in the incident , with over 60 injured. There are also minority child victims as well.

In my honest spiritual opinion….

Whatever Demonic Spirit that overtook the life of Heath Ledger is alive and well. Heath complained to many people about hearing voices in his head after channeling the spirit of the Joker before his life tragically ended on January 22, 2008.

And now with the alleged deranged shooter James Holmes claiming to be the Joker, there is no doubt in my mind that he was hearing these exact same voices, and it is quite possible that drugs may have also been in play. The film premiere for “Dark Knight Rises” has been cancelled in the wake of this tragic event.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all those who tragically lost their lives just trying to watch a midnight opening of the latest Batman film.

Drake Should Change His Name To "Duck"

So many rumors out there that Drake is trying to leave Lil’ Wayne and Young Money.  Drake recently addressed the rumors saying it’s nothing but love between em at Hartford’s Hot 93.7 Jingle Jam Concert.

There was definitely a questionable Tweet that Wayne let off from his @LilTunechi account.

Let’s just hope they work it all out since they’ve def been collectively killin the game.

Here’s Drake coming out of Eden with the Entourage he still has, or didn’t fire, or whatever… at the same time there was another Crazy Hollywood Shooter out on the Rampage.
