Do you trust government “workers”? Hahahaaaaa.

[Spktyr]

A better question to those people: How much do you trust your state government to have maintained the dam right or done the emergency repair properly? How much do you *really* trust your government?

"Anxiety levels surely increased when someone posted a Facebook video last Wednesday in which a National Guardsman was heard discussing “the eventual re-evacuation.” David Baldwin, adjutant general of the California National Guard, appeared at the press briefing that day to say the Guardsman had made a mistake."

This is like another Y2K.

The Unfortunate circumstance is that the libs in CA are still living in denial. It is their understanding that this dam was not designed to handle this kind of unprecedented rainfall amount. So rather than holding their elected officials accountable, they short straight to global warming.

Such people you cannot help. Fools have no interest in understanding; they only want to air their own opinions.

The California officials who cried wolf last week screwed everybody, themselves, their credibility, and the residents.

They stated, and I quote, that "the damn with fail within 60 minutes" and also "This is not a drill. This is not a drill! This is NOT a drill!!!"

So how do they now expect people to believe them?

And look what happened to resident's homes when they evacuated:

Do insurance companies really insure properties is areas with such high risk?? Or should I ask how high are the premiums? Or maybe, they expect tax payers to cover their losses?

All dams fail eventually. All things die, all things break, it’s a temporary world.
