Disclaimer: I am not, nor will I ever be a T supporter. I’d rather not even spell the rest of the name.

However, I have to agree with the union here. If these ceremonies tend to have a certain carnivalesque nature, can these firefighters be charged with more than bad taste?

It’d be a different story if these people were standing and chanting on the ashes of somebody’s newly ex-residense.

It's not explicit from the article one way or the other, but the "investigation" seems to refer to officials from the fire department, which doesn't imply that charges are being considered but instead that questions about policy adherence have been raised.

It's a poorly written article, with polarizing ambiguity.
