Opinion California on fire

[I Am Legion]

I was on a drill team for the Volleys for years. The number of balls dropped here is unbelievable. For a few reasons. 1. It's LA County. Tons of money, tons of big names. Tons of resources. 2. It's an area KNOWN for these issues.
I am a guy that hates pointing fingers when there is a disaster that is unprecedented. But this area is prime for fires and winds that make the problem 10x worse and has had them before. And what do the people in charge do? Nothing. No evac route, no emergency plan. Gridlock on escape routes with NO police presence after they ordered evac. Not an emergency plan for when water runs out. A 17.9 million cut to the LAFD, which most like cost lives here. Money for so many nonsensical things but cut LAFD in an area that needs it. Incredible. Not to mention no preventative measures such as cutting and clearing brush that feeds these fires. All the money that went to reservoirs that never got done, the dam issues, Newsome is a disaster. Mayor is a disaster. Fire Chief seems to be unqualified, but at least alerted Mayor to the issue in early December.

You're welcome to if you want. But my comment remains. There is a risk building in certain areas people have to acknowledge. Preparedness can only go so far toward mitigation.

However, in this particular case investigations need to be done to see if negligence reaches the level for criminal prosecution of those in authority and who bear responsibility for not meeting a proper level of preparedness.

Here's the thing though...Cali burns. Everyone knows that yet people still build there and live there. Everyone knows the State must provide robust measures to deal with fires cause...Cali burns. Are those robust measures secured from the exorbitant taxes paid there? Apparently not and once again...Cali burns.

Who could have possibly foreseen this?

My comment remains too, if any risk that exists in the world is enough for you to reason that we shouldn't do this thing or build some structures, that's a pretty retarded.


We shouldn't inhabit literally the most economically prosperous region on Earth because sometimes there are wild fires. Yikes this post is cringe.

Fire-proof wall?

Lmao. The way sherdog formatting is right now, your post looks like it says Evan Tanner was fighting off the wildfires until 2008

This is egregious, cowardly, and disgusting. Can liberals at least admit he is a shitbag when it is this obvious? What does covering for an incompetent POS just because he shares your political party do for anyone?

I went to donate some clothes, food and water to my local relief center and it’s depressing af. Tons of families. People taking cheap shots at California and its residents can fuck off

Remember that next time there's a flood or whatever in a red state. You guys always do this shit.

I saw a lot of people saying the hurricanes were man made. I haven’t heard much about these winds being man made, just that the leaves weren’t raked in the forest.

It was for the best

Leftism is just insane

The body count attributed to wokeness is getting out of hand.

This can't be reposted enough... If there was ever a bigger argument against DEI

The self entitled fuck actually had the "Wannabe" balls to utter the statement

"Am I able to carry your husband out of a fire? He got himself in the wrong place."

This is her insane explanation why physical standards should be lowered to allow more women to join

So if you're 6'+/220 lbs man who is incapacitated due to the fire on the 2nd floor of your house and these assholes show up

Sorry... you shouldn't have been hanging out on the 2nd story of your home just in case female firefighters show up and are unable to carry you out.

Newsflash asshole - There's lots of men who don't qualify either... physical standards are there for a reason. To make sure you can actually do the job, male or female...

Fire this retard ASAP

Some dumb pile of shit hit one of the planes with his drone now it’s down for a bit while they fix the wing. Hope he gets the book thrown at him.
