New York Post ^ | Eric Todisco

Mark Hamill was forced to flee his Malibu home as dangerous wildfires continue to spread through Southern California.

The “Star Wars” actor, 73, posted a statement on Instagram Tuesday night where he detailed his and his family’s “last-minute” evacuation.

“Personal Fire Update: 7pm- Evacuated Malibu so last-minute there (were) small fires on both sides of the road as we approached [Pacific Coast Highway],” Hamill wrote.

oh come on it’s not just Mark Hamill’s home. Many others are losing their homes, 30,000 Los Angeles residents, this is not something to be happy about.

Cut him some slack; he’s still mourning the death of his father, James Earl Jones.

I will be much more supportive when those in NC get the aid they need, otherwise what we have is evil supporting evil while letting the poor suffer.

I’ve noticed so many examples of people who lost “everything” in that ongoing tragedy, Tweeting and Instagramming again and again as it happened.

The desire to want “the world to know” and see what’s happening to me, at a time like that, escapes me. I think it has to come from a place of immaturity.

Insurance companies had pulled out from this area. Which means the rest of flyover country will not have to pay higher rates due to California’s lack of fire prevention.

I do enjoy the continuity of history. Nice to know that people are still the same as they were 2000 years ago.

On that note...

This is ridiculous.

Huh?

In a state where fire is THE NUMBER ONE DISASTER?

CA had 8200 fires in 20 years.

Over 100,000 homes burned in 10 years

Over 25% of the entire state has burned.

How, in the name of all that is holy, is fire suppression not the NUMBER ONE thing on everyones list?

Is as absurd as it is tragic. And it’s as predictable as it is inevitable.

No one really cares Mark. Especially those of us you consider deplorable and/or garbage.

“Insurance companies had pulled out from this area.”

I listened to Tim Pool on Rumble covering this. The insurance companies who keep track of precisely this knew the threat of the brush not being trimmed back and the water reserves not kept up made a situation just waiting for high winds to kick off an inferno like this. That made them cancel coverage and no officials cared to address the danger.

It’s criminal negligence by the government in charge of this stuff. Not only did they see it coming they just sat and waited like they had a betting pool on it.

I hope we consider tar and feathering for this crew, but I’m old fashion.

I lived in Southern California for years. I was born there. Couldn’t wait to get out. It went from a paradise where they used to test rocket engines a few blocks from my house, to basically Tijuana. And not the good parts of Tijuana.

As for Barbra Streisand, I can’t find any info about her right now so I guess she’s okay? She’s been through fires recently. According to my doctor, Dr. Chatbot, Barbra still lives in her mansion in malibu.

Let his house burn. More than likely the fire crews voted for Trump.
