In a land far away in another place and time there was a big dust up between the police and the fire department in an adjoining county where I lived at the time. It was on all the local news stations nightly for a couple weeks. The beef was over who should be in charge during large incidents when both agencies responded. I was privy to inside info as I knew a lot of fireman and cops that went to a large fitness center I worked out at a couple hours a day 6 days a week.

The news coverage was heavily slanted toward the cops, making the fireman look like the bad guys. The exact opposite was true, the police were really trying to over step their bounds and interfered with the fireman trying to do their jobs.

I figured it was do to the "they have to drive on my roads" motto a lot of cops had. Simple fear of the police.
