Exuberant preaching to the choir exercises your lungs at least.

OK, so you were excluded. Thanks for clarifying that.

In the meantime the choir of the elect will grow and grow without you, I guess. God never brings something like this without an excellent reason.

They may throw the book at the land lord, but that will likely be the extent of it.

You zoomed to the bottom line with that statement.

Not necessarily at the top of the list, but also not at the bottom is the lack of attention of the folks inside the warehouse. Look at those photos of the place before the incident. Did this people have no common sense from which to evaluate the risk?

Who needs a safe place to be a safe place, to make a pun?

How could anyone walk, much less dance, in that junk heap? And people were actually living there as well. Lousy job, Oakland city inspectors. A great deal of this disaster is your fault.

“Modern day hippies living in a warehouse commune that hosts drug driven rave parties where highs and sex are free and rampant..........”

Live fast, die young, leave a crispy corpse.

They complained about a host of things but it was the usual government runaround probably involving bribes.

“The city of Oakland has yet to release a full accounting of all city building or fire code inspections and investigations of the warehouse, but city records available online show at least five complaints had been investigated since June 2014.”

Stolen electricity could be the cause of the Ghost Ship fire:

The stolen juice is the bigger puzzle to me. Somebody else’s electric bill got run up. That somebody else did not complain. Maybe a government facility, and someone was hiding it?

Do you always insist on being the fool?

Give it a rest! The title is yours, the undisputed master.

At some point yes, sharing gospel with adamant fools like you is foolish.

I’ve pegged you. You are one of those nonbelieving churchians, sure he’s going to hell and also sure he has the infallible formula for what “real Christianity” is, and is willing to hurl a condemnation of “not in real Christianity” at anyone who gets crosswise with him.

An electrical arc would be slow to develop into a significant event. Typically about an hour.

Those people were trapped by a flash fire, most likely butane from freebasing.

No, I am one of many messengers to unbelieving churchians like yourself.

You want to get yourself saved by loudly and repeatedly declaring it to be so.

That is not the means that Yehova provided.

Apparently Ion is holed up in the downtown Oakland Marriott hotel. Guess he didn’t lose everything,

Hipsters. The victims were hipsters. Not hippies. There is a big difference.

Hipsters are clean, have good jobs. Hippies smell, are mostly addicts and are unemployable.

This tragedy may have exposed the inner workings of Sanctuary Cities and what they do with the many residents that can’t afford actual homes and bills. I wouldn’t be surprised if warehouse districts in each city are used for this purpose and people are bribed to kill investigations and turn a blind eye.

Certain parts of this country have become unrecognizable 3rd world hell-holes. The big problem is that instead of improving blighted areas the progressives are trying to bring us all down to the level of our worst element...unless you’re part of the 1%.

This is not about where and how people live.

Those that died had paid for admission to what was supposed to be a “cool” party.

The city had to be aware that a paid event was scheduled, since fliers had been posted around town.

They made no effort to control it.

Their families are entitled to learn why Oakland officials ... did not enforce the law.

California feels they don't need to enforce laws - unless it benefits them.
