They were still watering it down when I went by on my way to work this morning. And the whole place is still smoking.

BUT, the 101 both north and south are open except that the lanes north have been reduced allowing for fire fighters working on the edge of the freeway.

It looks a lot like the one up in San Francisco back in March.

Fresno Bee: Fire officials said they suspect arson because the fire erupted so quickly over so much of the building.

“It’s very rare for the entire building to be engulfed at once,” Moore said. “There may have been foul play.”

Look where all this rioting, looting, die-ins, and attacks on police and Bosnians are happening. Liberal Meccas like NYC, LA, Berzerkeley. Chicago, DC and St. Louis.

They say they want America to take notice. We are. If this happened in October the GOP would probably have won in Virginia and NH too.
