I'm all for it.

For some — including many firefighters from municipalities — protection from a deadly wildfire isn't something that some neighbors should be able to buy when others can’t. Furthermore, many first responders express concern that a lack of oversight and communication with private firefighters could add risk in an already dangerous fire situation.

Sounds a little catty.

The government (me) should not be responsible for protecting your dream home on the sea side or flood plane or San Andreas Fault. The home owner must acknowledge some risk and personal responsibility.
