The Democrats do ruin everything, especially the progressives.  They are like a plague of locusts destroying everything on their path.

So how would your love muffin prevented all of this? Sweep the forests? Hold up his tiny hand to stop 100 mph winds?

 

He ain't no god, but you cult members are so easily fooled that you think so.

 

MAGAs get sillier and sillier by the day.

Not get rid of experienced firefighters and replace with diversity hires to play politics for a start.

 

Firefighting is mostly white and male. A California program aims to change that

 

"Fire departments have tried to diversify their ranks for years with only modest success. The profession remains overwhelmingly white and male. One California training program is trying to change that."

Speaking of plagues of locusts, how about the ones that are doing their shopping in the homes that have been evacuating?  Had there been enforcement of shoplifting laws, they'd be in prison already and none of it would be happening.

Maybe he wouldn't have cut the fire dept budget by $17m and put a DEI hire in charge of it. There's more.

Sunday morning commentary.

 

LA is burning down.

 

People are extremely resistant to change.  At least some are.  Oftentimes they don't change until the pain not to is significantly greater than the pain to change.

 

Human nature?  Nah.  It's all in the schooling.

Meanwhile, the Democrats are opening up about the elephant in the room that is slowing destroying the once great state of California.  Now the destruction is really picking up speed.

If the fire departments have remained "overwhelming white and male..." and the diversity programs have seemingly failed, then it would appear that the overwhelmingly white male departments are not up to the task. How is this a "Democrats" problem?

Show the proof that this was caused by climate change.  If you can't, and you can't, then you're detached from reality.

Just for openers, empty reservoirs that should be full, insufficient numbers of firefighters, lack of a coordinated response. In other words. a general lack of competence. What has this got to do with the people you call MAGAs ?

It has everything to do with the incompetence of the leaders in California.

Pineapple fields are usually nice and safe except in Hawaii.  Honolulu's mayor is planning on opening a landfill in the middle of one.

[TedG]

@Jingthing

 

Democrats blame the L.A. blazes on the changing climate, which is a convenient excuse as citizens rage against the failures of state and local government. The evidence doesn’t support the climate explanation since (among other reasons) California has had a dry climate and Santa Ana winds, even with hurricane-force gusts on occasion, for centuries. If the Democrats who run the state believe their own advertising, why not spend money in useful ways rather than on a green-energy transition to nowhere?

 

 

The Governor’s budget last year included $2.6 billion for “forest and wildfire resilience”—far less than the $14.7 billion provisioned for zero-emission vehicles and its “clean energy” transition. California’s $100 billion bullet train and offshore wind turbines will do nothing to prevent fires or protect communities. Rooftop solar subsidies are no consolation for people who lose their homes.

We're surrounded by pineapple & coconut farms.  

 

One reason I didn't retire at the places I was familiar with in the USA.  FL would have been 1st choice, if not for hurricane season.  

 

West coast too expensive (CA), or rainy (OR & WA).  Caribbean Islands, back to hurricane season.  Canada & N. USA ... too cold.  Not really a fan of the Gulf.   Bays on Gulf of TH are prettier.

 

Prefer to be near the surf, though disappointed with the diving in TH, and mediocre at best.  Took a while to get to PKK, but fits us perfectly.  Where we went and ended up mostly on holiday anyway.  If not here, PKK, then would have been further South, among the 'limestone' hills.  Except daughter settled at Krung Thep, so only 4 hrs.

 

Was at Hua Hin yesterday ... HELL NO.  Don't know why, only 100 kms north, but air worse, and the congestion was a joke.  Took the wife 15 mins to leave PEA, get into the mess, make a U-turn, and pick me up ... all of about 700 meters   

 

On Topic ... Fire area would scare the hell out of me, as too unpredictable, and insurance rates, same as flood & typhoon areas would be silly high, if they even cover you.
