Opinion California on fire

[PBAC]

So Trump lied his ass off about diverted water and shortages?

 

[Morning Star]

Death toll from the fires is now officially 11. Likely to rise, of course.

They really got to fix the sig thing. Your sig really does not go well with this post.

Potentially 50% of fire fighting supplies including hoses were sent to Ukraine and never replaced. FUCKING IDIOTS.

“stupid libs” Trump sacklickers have such a hard on for California, worry about your own shitty fly over states or garbage Canada.

How the fuck did they get this backroom footage?

Even liberals don't want their leaders to be leading

So this fire is quite a major one huh? I had mostly ignored the headlines on it as it seems California burns every year

What's different is where it is and who lost houses, more than anything.

Gayvin doing all he can to lose what little support he has Left.

Assuming it's true, why is this bad?

It won't really allow it to be rebuilt as it was originally was will it. Which really sucks if you own a house there.

Have a read chief.

"California wildfire" redirects here. For the current fires in California, see 2025 California wildfires.

California has dry, windy, and often hot weather conditions from spring through late autumn that can produce moderate to severe wildfires. Pre-1800, when the area was much more forested and the ecology much more resilient, 4.4-11.9 million acres (1.8-4.8 million hectares) of forest and shrubland burned annually. California land area totals 99,813,760 or roughly 100 million acres, so since 2000, the area that burned annually has ranged between 90,000 acres, or 0.09%, and 1,590,000 acres, or 1.59% of the total land of California.<a During the 2020 wildfire season alone, over 8,100 fires contributed to the burning of nearly 4.5 million acres of land.

The primary factor is accumulation. This has been going on at these levels in California LONG before anything to do with barely noticeable anthropogenic theories...

So all of California equals Pacific Palisades? Come on, try a little harder with the reaches. Also note how you glossed over that the timing of this fire is very unusual given how late in fire season it is.

Right On, this ubiquitous climate change excuse for everything is ridiculous. The dryness and water problems in Los Angeles are not due to this super complex, multi-faceted, so called climate change problem . It is much simpler than that.

Los Angeles naturally had a very healthy river flowing through it that nourished the land and hydrated the area. It is those tons and tons of concrete blocking the river that is disrupting the natural balance of the area, not plastic straws and all this other climate change nonsense.

Bro the LA River doesn't run anywhere near Pacific Palisades. Not to mention it's the federal government that controls it and was responsible for its transformation into the setting of Grease.

ran out of water, recent fire dept budget cuts and half the equipment was given away.

either these are some of the dumbest people in history, or this was planned.

Well if you own a house that was destroyed, you'd still be able to own the property and rebuild whatever you want. Single family or not. I don't think you realize how affluent (and therefore inefficient from a housing perspective) Pacific Palisades is. Median price of sold homes is a couple million, at least. Not to mention the rest of the state and country will be bailing out these primarily wealthy folks.

How did they steal military vehicles? Was no one guarding them?

Given how hard Humvees are to start that was very likely someone coming from a military background.

I also wouldn't count out that things were stolen earlier, if the random twitter post is true. Stuff gets stolen all the time in the military, and bad inventory management is normal.

I don't know how to post gifts but this one shows the inferno. I think I'd be driving towards the beach

 

[MWB1982]

Never mind it posted by itself

They're going the wrong way

You obviously read nothing and instead will regurgitate media talking points...

Here is Bannon’s podcast from this morning. Just watch the first 4 minutes or so which is clips from MSNBC.

“How can Trump politicize this!”
