THERE IS NOISE ABOUT SIREN
IN DELAWARE COUNTY TOWN.
THE QUESTION WHETHER IT
SHOULD BE SILENCED SITTING
NEIGHBOR AGAINST NEIGHBOR.
JOE HOLDEN HAS BOTH SIDES
OF THE ALARMING ARGUMENT FROM
DREXEL HILL.
EACH TIME THAT SIREN
SOUNDED, WE WATCHED
FIREFIGHTERS RUN DOWN THE
STREET, AND JUMP INTO
FIRETRUCKS.
I'M TOLD FOR SOME, THAT IS AT
LEAST HOW THEY'RE ALERTED TO
EMERGENCY STILL.
PUSHING BACK.
GET OVER IT.
SUPPORTERS OF THE FIRE
COMPANY UP IN ARMS AFTER A
PETITION THREATENED TO SILENCE
THE STATION'S SIRENS.
IT DOESN'T EVEN BOTHER YOU.
SO GET USED TO IT, LADIES.
FOR GENERATIONS IT SOUNDED.
ALLOWED WHALE, SOUND OF LOCAL
LANDSCAPE, FOR AS LONG AS
ANYONE CAN REMEMBER.
IT IS JUST PART OF LIFE,
HERE, LIKE YOU GET USED TO IT
AFTER A COUPLE EVERY YEARS.
MY FRIENDS SAYS IT SOUNDS LIKE
A ZOMBIE MOVIE.
LIKE HE THINKS THE ZOMBIES ARE
ATTACKING.
THE SIRENS ITSELF NOW UNDER
ATTACK, THE PETITION CLAIMS IT
IS TOO LOUD, AND AN ANTIQUATED
PIECE OF TECHNOLOGY.
THIS WOMAN WHO ASKED ME NOT
SHOW HER FACE WANTS THE
WHISTLE MUTED.
TECHNOLOGY REACHED SUCH A
POINT WHERE YOU KNOW THERE IS
NO NEED IN DOING THIS 19
WHATEVER, 1800 TYPE OF SIREN
TYPE EVERY THING.
LAUNCHED COUNTER PETITION
AND POSTED MESSAGE HOPING TO
RAIL SUPPORT TO SAVE THEIR
SIREN.
FIRE CHIEF HERE IGNORED
REPEATED REQUESTS FOR
INTERVIEW, BUT SOME IN THE
COMMUNITY, LIKE JULIA
RODRIGUEZ, WERE QUICK TO TAKE
UP THE CAUSE.
THANK YOU, THAT'S WHAT THEY
LOVE.
THEN STAY WITH IT.
IT DOESN'T BOTHER ME THAT MUCH
OTHERS HERE LIKE MARY,
OUTRAGED, AND HELL BENT ON
DROWNING OUT THE OPPOSITION.
THAT IS IT.
YOU'RE NOT GETTING YOUR
PETITION.
YOU'RE NOT GOING TO --
POSITIVELY NOT.
WE REACHED OUT TO THE WOMAN
WHO CREATED THE PETITION.
SHE DID NOT GET BACK TO US FOR
COMMENT.
AND AGAIN, THE CHIEF ALSO NOT
TALKING ABOUT THIS.
AND WE WANTED TO KNOW WHAT HIS
NEXT STEP CON.
