Opinion California on fire

[calavera2]

Lol…. My goodness. You’re on a roll

Sooo… Gavin already has a plan for LA 2.0

The fire isn’t even put out yet

Like shooting fish in a barrel

4d chess, pretty sure Newsome is on LA 5.0 plan by now

Winds ramping up again and all the arsonists and foreign agents got their lighters prepped.

Hahaha…. Another lefty meltdown

Alhamdulillah they are not wrong. While Israel is incinerating toddlers in Gaza with the help of USA, there will be no sympathy from the Ummah. God has spoken.

Solidarity between the Ummah's and the Trumpers...lovely to see the shitbags converge

Man, I don't think I've ever seen a political career sink to bottom of the ocean so quickly.

Incompetence in government follows from uncompetitive elections.

That flawless logic being that water is typically used to fight fire? Your logic is so bizarre. Trump is absolutely correct in calling out Newsom's incompetence. Get over it and have the integrity to admit that President Trump is right again.

It wasn't a lack of water, in fact the system worked at maximum capacity for 15 hours straight. Name another district that can do that? There was water available, they just didn't have the pressure.

So actually what you think is logic is just made up BS for the rubes like you. Chow down on that misinformation homes.

This is infuriating. Equity is THE MOST important thing to LA's water utility? Fucking idiots. How about water availability you dumb bitch from DWP?

Normally they have access to 117 million gallons at least not just 3 million from backup tanks. Did you fail math? The reservoir also provides better pressure.

Is anyone near enough this tragedy to talk about it?

They would not have access to the 177 milion gallons, that would only feed into hte actual tanks that hydrants draw from. The result would have been better water pressure that still ran out since the system was never designed to fight wildfires of that scale.

As for the reservoir that was under repairs, what would you have done differently? Prioritize it over other county repairs?

I'd like to see Mel Gibson run against Gavin Newsom in a recall election.

Also infuriating her salary, as a public official, let alone an incompetent one is 750,000

Was pretty shocking that that Harvard person, Claudine gay was getting like a million to be a DEI failure, but a public office laying that much? Uhhh, how about fuck off

No repairs have been done in 11 months. I would have focused on getting them done.

Sure, if it was incompetence or lack of funding, valid criticism. But only time will tell. There's a lot of infrastructure to maintain countywide and much higher fire risk areas historically. Not to mention completion was set for February, so it's not like this was a repair meant to take years.

Update

The arsonist are still setting fires

 

[PBAC]

Seems likely this was caused by stagnant air warm sun and strong winds. I havent looked into the foliage common in the area but i would wager there is goorse or something similiar because this is annual and so common many people filtered out the headlines. Wild fires are usually seasonal and can vary relative to atmospheric changes.
