Why would you shoot someone trying to put out a fire?
I think there is something going on and people have been ordered to kill as many police or firefighters they can. This is happening every day.
He got smoked
What in the actual hell is going on in our world?!?!!! Everyday I see something so senseless and tragic! Prayers to his family and all who loved him. ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¼â¤ï¸ÂÂðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¼
Careless or Cowardly probably Cowardly
Probably some cop wanted him to move his truck….
I’m so sick of seeing good people are dying. This world disgusts me. RIP â¤ï¸ÂÂ
Start arming our firefighter! 😤
This is unacceptable for our Firefighters and Paramedics!!! They are true heroes unlike cops (not all, of course) who too often are just jackboots.
Can we take out country back now, ABC? Is this clear enough for you?
Madness, and to add insult to injury family members of the shooter get air time to talk about how wonderful the shooter is.
I tell you, gun control will never happen. It will only get worse like this senseless shooting of our hero firefighters trying to help us put out a fire. It is just a crazy country of increasing crimeâš ï¸ÂÂ
This is America
They should light a dumpster on fire and throw the shooter in it.
This reminds me of when Long Beach, CA Fire Captain David Rosa was also shot and killed while fighting a fire back in 2018. I hope Captain Max Fortuna’s family, friends, and colleagues find comfort during this tragic loss. 👨â€ÂÂ🚒
Once again a gun does nobody any good ever. 📡👽🇺🇸 RUN!!! Say no to guns.
Firefighting is definitely a job that you might not make it home from but to be ambushed or whatever happened to him that's tragic. 📡👽🇺🇸 RUN!!!
SmhðŸ’â€Â😡ðŸ’â€Â😡
I'm so sorry for your loss..May Perpetual light shine upon the dear soul of Captain Max Fortuna.May the platoon continue in excellent leadership.Peace to all.Amen.
My respect goes out to all firefighters real heroes
Damn, I live within a few miles of Stockton. Hard to believe something like this could happen so close by, but Stockton has a reputation for a reason…
ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¼Prayers to the family of that hero –Would be nice to bring back the "Electric Chair" for the cowards that don't respect our second amendment laws and all of these shootings for no F🤬 reason is starting to get annoying!!!
My heart goes out to his family 😇â¤ðŸ™ÂÂ
Wow!!! is this is what we into killing firefighters putting out fires? My condolences go out to the firefighter family once again, we need Jesus Christ spiritual warfare is taking place
Shot by whom? CRICKETS

God bless Max Fortuna! It really irks me why they can't
retire into the sunset quietly.
Breaks my heart to hear this.
I'd say this world is going to hell, but we're already there.
Damn this is so sad! What’s happening to us!!!
Can't even wrap my head around this, makes no sense!
