One of the most unintentionally hilarious things about HBOT: decreeing to your fellow libs that you have decided to ban a poster.
Fascinating stuff. Riveting, even. š§
Los Angeles On Fire

Fascinating stuff. Riveting, even. š§
Climate change didnāt cause this because it isnāt even a thing. This disaster was caused by poor planning, zero preparation, zero foresight, political corruption, laziness and just unwillingness to do hard work. Basically all the traits of a Marxist Democrat controlled government for years on end.
Maybe this June they will take all the time, money and energy they spend on gay pride month and use it on fire prevention and planning month instead.
And yet completely gullible sheep like @SA_Hawk still get their talking points from fellow moron Trump.
It is incredibly damning to us as a nation how since 2016, we as a people now refuse to come together under times of crisis and natural disasters. There was a time when events like the fires in California, the floods in North Carolina, the invasion of Ukraine, and Covid-19 would have brought us together on how we respond just like all other crisis / disasters in my life 1972-2015.
Now it is the exact opposite and everything is a conspiracy and opportunity to play political games, make outlandish claims to blame the federal, state, and local governments and further the hate/fear monger that feeds the beast. Itās disgusting and a happy **** you to anyone who tries to say it is a both sides thing. The far right, which has dramatically increased in numbers the last 9 years, is destroying the country.

Imagine if you will a situation where 1000 homes are on fire at the same time in Des Moines. Then, to top that off, 50 mph winds are whipping those fires in all directions.
Do any of you dipsticks think Des Moines FD is "prepared" for that? Do you think they have enough trucks/people/water to handle?
Just naive, gullible sheep as far as the eye can see in this thread, bleating and repeating what their rich overlords want them to repeat.

Yes, because in Des Moines when the fire fighters go turn on the hydrants you know what happens? Water comes out.
Nothing says why can't we all come together like screaming "It's all their fault" and F you if you don't agree. Your post is a prime example of why it's perpetuating. We see the same thing from those on the right pointing in the other direction "It's all their fault'.
So there's enough trucks and people to handle 1000 fires at the same time with more popping up as you attempt to fight those?
You could drive your vehicle around the earth from now until the day you die and not change the weather 1/1000000000000000 of the amount the people telling you we are changing the weather do with this:
No shit weather is getting more severe.
Does anyone have information on the fire? What is contained?
California Is Now Trying Cloud Seeding To Beat the Drought
Adding ice crystals might be just the bump these lazy clouds need.

Everything is worse all the time...
Yeah, it's a Lib source, but it's undeniable the malignancy of Donald Trump himself is feeding division in America, and he is utilizing right wing media to amplify the division.
Could you imagine a Donald Trump reaction to another OKC bombing or another 9/11? No need, we saw it in Covid. Complete dysfunction and blame versus leadership. I wasn't a huge fan of W, but he strove to bring us together in the days after 9/11. Trump wouldn't try to do that for more than 5 minutes before assigning blame and turning the event into a wedge.

If conditions like that had been occurring in DM for over 200 years wouldnāt you at least expect the āexpertsā to be a little more preparedā¦each time?
The fires were not in the City of LA.
Okay. Now do Florida and hurricanes.
Yes. That's how some supplies budgets work. They buy in bulk for multiple years.
Yes; it is in the budget.
Why is math so hard for MAGAs?

Los Angelenos have Democrats to thank for the open border and international terrorist gangs looting their homes.
Border security & enforced immigration policy sounding pretty good right about now.

They're now being used by oligarchs to enrich themselves as much as they possibly can.
You keep posting Elno propaganda here.
Why is that?
Then why didnāt she say that?
āExcuse me, but I am NOT the mayor of Palisades or Santa Monica or any of the other towns you keep asking about. I am the mayor of Los Angeles proper. Los Angeles and Los Angeles ONLY!!!ā
Nope. Just stood there looking like a clown.
Climate change = orchestrated fear porn.
You do āFlorida and hurricanesā. Then find any post of mine where I said the experts there are any more competent than the ones in CA.
Not analogous. Hurricanes cannot be prevented, contained or extinguished. There is no hurricane department on call to put them out when they occur.
There are emergency protocols, policies, building codes etc but no way to prevent or stop a hurricane.
Different phenomena.
Okay. No way to stop a wildfire when an area has received 0.16ā of rain over 8 months and had 80-100 mph winds.
Building codes, protocols, yada, yada, yada.
You ever see the Sam Kittleson skit about feeding people in the š?
Itās like saying it regularly rains in the Carolinas, so why couldnāt they handle Helene?
Who is "Sam Kittleson"?
Does she know about the Inland Valley, and all the water supplied there?
The long term effects of this fire will be enormous and not just felt in California.
Get ready for higher prices on appliances when the rebuilding starts, for example. Lumber? $$$$
I HOPE it starts a serious revamp of the insurance industry.
Iām thinking I need to buy stock in HomeDepot and maybe Georgia Pacific? Weyerhaeuser?
We get a lot of lumber from Canada. Rethink a trade war/tariff kerfluffle? Or else risk paying $50 for an 8 foot long 2x4?
Lots to think about once the fires are out. Will Cali make the rebuilding process streamlined? Those folks may need to take a look at several things that have developed since many of the older homes were built. Code issues, materials required etc.
Expect lots of conversations about this.

People shouldn't be living in the hills around LA.
There is an incredible fire risk unless you remove all vegetation. And if you do that then you get mudslides when it rains.

All we need now is an Atmospheric River/Pineapple Express to settle in...
I donāt think this post has gotten the attention it deserves yet.
