Probably the same reaction you have toward those folks. I don’t agree with them politically, but these folks are suffering just as those that lost homes in fires in Butte County this year...Please, don’t be like Morford in the SF Chronicle and somehow turn this around to blame others that don’t think politically like you.
Did the old folks that died trying to escape the flames deserve their cruel death at the hand of flames? Did the 14 year old kid that ran for his life and was found burnt to a crisp in his driveway deserve his fate...what about his parents, also found in the driveway their bodies raked in pain as 60 percent of their bodies were burned.
What about the man and wife vactioning in the area were froced to dive into a pool beacuse burning trees blocked the path of their getaway? For hours he held his wife in the water as he suffered burns trying to hold onto the bricks that lined the pool. Those bricks were like oven bricks. She died from smoke inhalation and he held her for hours in the pool until the flames eventually subsided and he was able to drag his now lifeless wife out... I wonder what he were to say if it happened in Texas.
Maybe it is a different family?
It hurts to read the words you post. Terrible way to go. California should be better prepared for something like this, if at all possible. People’s lives matter.
Where did you read these stories, please?
