Hire Firefighters & Lay Off Teachers?

[Guest KHS]

The town council chooses to continue hiring an increasing amount of out-of-towner Firefighters at the expense of the Kearny childrens educational advancement. It's time for a drastic change when excessive salary and perk demands of out-of-town patronage & nepotism favors are put ahead of the children's future. Laying off ACTIVE Teachers while Firefighters SLEEP at the white male dominated FRAT (fire) Houses is unacceptable! I want my money to go towards education instead of supporting unskilled laborer Firefighters whose children DO NOT attend the Kearny public schools!

[Guest Tony secretly loves the FD]

Tony, Tony, Tony. One thing has nothing to do with the other. Your obsession with the Fire Department is unhealthy fella.

[Guest Danny]

That is correct public school system has nothing to do with the fire dept but I would rather have more teachers. 

Education system is important & with a good education system in place it will make the town better in the long run!

Time to vote this Mayor out!!

The mayor has 2 full time jobs....Mayor &  Clerk for the county...he has no time to focus on Kearny!

Not only are the two budgets completely different. They come from two different sources of taxes. One has ZERO impact on the other. Also that being said the Mayor has ZERO control over the school board. They are two different bodies all together.

The BOE knew the charter school was coming. But they didnt want to listen. Because they always know better. So now the tax payers are the ones who pay. Time to get them out.

The incident was in Jersey City and not S. Kearny. A bored Kearny Firefighter is trying to mislead the residents into thinking the KFD did some actual work for a chance but failed. Kearny has over 100 Firefighters being paid between $100,000 and $200,000 a year while Teachers are getting laid off. The Kearny Public Schools are falling apart while the town pours millions into Fire Dept. fraternity houses for non-resident Firefighters. The Firefighters job can be done by teenagers as a summer job for $10/hour because they do the same thing; eat, sleep, watch TV and sit around bored. Kearny residents need to thank the Mayor/Council & Firefighters for the abusive property tax bills and one of the WORST school districts in NJ! The student to Teacher ratio is unacceptable, the students lack basic supplies and the schools are a disgrace but the Firefighters are getting historically high salaries, raises & promotions. Three Teachers can be hired for what the town pays for one non-resident Firefighter. It's a clear message that the people who pay the taxes have NO VOICE!!

It's clear this poster doesn't understand how taxes work in Kearny. Municipal taxes do not pay teacher and School taxes do not pay firefighters. The School System is a separate tax and separate budget, just as the municipal budget/municipal taxes.

Also close to the majority of the FD makes well under 50K a year, and that's before anything gets taken out.

Yada yada  yada.   Barney, we get it.  You're jealous of Kearny's bravest because you failed the test. Have you tried the Post Office ?

doc23mets is obviously some Firefighters mommy and a LIAR who cannot take criticism of her baby boy. The overwhelming majority of Kearny Firefighters make well in excess of $50,000. The Chief alone makes over $200,000 to start. Also, at what point is the town of Kearny of responsible for the ENTIRE tax bill? The school and municipal portions are seperate but does that make the burden on the people that actually LIVE IN KEARNY ANY EASIER? The residents want the tax increases stopped! It's time to crack down on the hiring of people who only enter the town for the basis of taking as much out of the taxpayers pockets as possible (the Firefighters) and start rebuilding a community atmosphere that is all but dead. Firefighters who drive to Kearny 2 days a week to sleep, eat, watch TV and conduct personal business contribute NOTHING to the community! Any resident could easily walk into any Fire House 24/7 and witness the lack of an active contribution for their 100K+ a year if not for the bolt locked doors. It's a disgrace!

  I'm sure Barney dreams at night about being one of Kearny's bravest.   Tears on my pillow .........

[Guest Gilfredo]

Kearny needs a "Mayor" who cares for the future of Kearny. All jobs are essential (police/teachers/fire dept) but we need to focus on Kearny education system. 

I never seen a cop walk down my block or even ride a bike & talk with residents. There needs to be better communication between cops and residents. 

In the long run, with a better education system leads to lower crimes.

About 40+ firefighters have been hired over the past 2-3 years to replace the guys who retired who were making higher salaries. These new firefighters start at 33K a year... it will take about 5 years to even get close to 50K... keep typing keyboard commando

     If Barney wasn't able to post his angry comments about not being able to become one of Kearny's bravest, he might do something stupid like harming himself.

     No one wants Barney to harm himself so it's probably better that he just keeps doing his thing.

Yes, for 3 days a week for 50k....that's way too much!

doc13mets is actually a Kearny FF and former East Newark FF who sued the town for a BS reason. He has already caused problems at Kearny FD because he didnt want to go to the fire academy again when its required. What a loser.

I guess one out of three is hall of fame stats in the MLB. Do people actually take this board seriously?

[Guest Guest]

Dear mommy: It's nice to see you and Daddy still coddling your little Firefighter baby. There are 40 recently hired Firefighters who will be making $100,000.00 in 5 years. 80 Teachers could have been hired for the same money but are having their jobs terminated instead as the children of the residents get screwed. The Firefighters are part-time employees who do not live in Kearny. They contribute nothing to community and only show up 2 days a week to take the residents money. The Firefighters cower behind locked doors at multi-million dollar Frat houses that have $1000 beds, large screen TV's, weight rooms, lounge areas, wifi, gourmet kitchens and other high end amenities. The smoke eating brave superhuman heroes (LOL!) spend their 2 days a week eating, shitting, watching TV and running personal errands. Statistics prove that volunteer Firefighters are superior in every way. Hiring requierments for paid Firefighters are a G.E.D., a heartbeat and a mommy or Daddy willing to blow whoever is necessary to get their underachieving idiot child onto the payroll. Disgusting!

Since Barney can't make it as Kearny's Bravest, maybe he can be KFD's mascot. If he stops in the firehouse and tells the FF's how much he wishes he could be one of them, they'll let him ring the bell or siren.
