Tigers make big donation to help the Detroit Fire Department

[@highspacefox]

wow what an awesome guy, this is an example for all people with wealth. Also a sad view of what our economic system has become, when the government would rather spend billions overseas when our own country need obvious attention.

Too bad most wealthy people are greedy narcissists or psychopaths.

Thank you so much to the Tigers! The guys whose makes profit with the bankruptcy should spent some thousands bucks too!

[@BeytekinConstructionMachinery]

So, the money didn't went to the firefighters! Shame on you City of Detroit!

[@Scoobz187]

Good to see. Now every citizen of Detroit should spend 5 bucks on this and lot´s of problems could get solved. My fellow comrades from FD and EMS are doing this for you, the people. They come to help you when in trouble. Now its youre turn to help cause they need you to be there for you!

[@emtb9111]

It is such a neat thing to see community members chipping in and helping those who serve! Way to go!

$50,000? Amazing donation but you'll outfit one fire house with new motorola radios for the cost of them - it's really a shame and hard on agencies that do not have that spending ability.

Great man

good thing he has made 50 million dollars in his career so he can use that tax deduction

Public safety is clearly not number 1

[@firelife4112]

That is pathetic and pitiful, a paid fd that can't afford to help its own, and have to accept charity.

[@Stargazzer811]

Well thankfully, this was almost a decade ago. The DFD you see today looks nothing like this. Gear issues are much less of a concern, response times are up, and generally Detroit is much safer.
