Absolutely horrible situation.
But don’t put me in the camp that says that this was a planned attack to wipe out the people. Unforeseen things happen. Comfort the survivors. And even when human actions are complicit, don’t be too quick to attribute something to malice if stupidity is an available option.
My opinion is this whole thing was planned...
From what I recall it even goes further than that. The guy is a native Hawaiian and considers the water to be some kind of sacred resource. I don’t know if he literally believes that but somehow honoring that traditional belief feeds into his view that water policy has a social justice aspect.
But don't rule out malice.
The 1871 Peshtigo fire in Wisconsin, which may have killed as many as 2,400 people, was worse.
Why did the fire crews leave the scene? I don't know much about firefighting, but it would seem to me that they would not leave until the fire was completely out.
It is not difficult to understand how individuals who base their entire lives and outlooks on fantasies make bad decisions when an understanding of reality is necessary.
Remember: to the left, Math is racist. Objectivity is racist.
In short: Reality is racist, so it must be ignored.
You can ignore reality, but you cannot escape the consequences of ignoring reality.
Came up with a sayign today- remember they accused bush of lying in iraq war claiming ‘Bush lied, people died”?
Well “Hawaii burned while Biden tanned” (or sunbathed- either will work)
“We have such weak leadership at all levels of government at this point, and it is just a matter of time before more major disasters hit this nation.”
I don’t like to think about what they’d be doing to us if they were stronger...strong enough to do what they actually want to do.
I heard it was due to downed power lines blocking the road ahead. Some drove past the barrier and survived.
Dont know the truth but sure seems like the gov response to this fire was grossly incompetent and many people died as a result.
Sadly no one will hold them accountable.
Lahaina went ablaze while Biden was dazed.
Hawaii was aflame while Biden continued his shame.
Lahaina was on fire while Biden looked for kids to hire.
“We have such weak leadership at all levels of government at this point, and it is just a matter of time before more major disasters hit this nation.”
This bears repeating. The incompetence is downright scary. I’d say it’s one of the most significant issues we face as a nation.
It’s a blog.
How about posting the whole thing right here, or posting it in blogs...
It’s posted in blogs.
Who are you? Humblegunners blog-nazi replacement?
I’ll keep excerpting it ‘bone’.
Have a nice day! ;)
We can’t rule out malice or negligence.
We had both with the Alameda fire September 8 2020.
Jackson county emergency management decided to not warn or evacuate us because we are OLD AND MIGHT GET CONFUSED!So we ran when we saw flames in our yards!3500 senior CITIZENS. Many have died from being a homeless refugee.
All our local governments are filled with affirmative action hiring. Incompetent at best.
Then add a bunch of anarchists camping in a local park harrassing conservative residents. They paid bums on the Greenway to set out gas cans in a windstorm and 103 degrees.
Correct. It was 9/12 part II. This time perpetrated by our own government.
Because it’s the easiest way for libtards to keep little brown island people from escaping
Next question
Can't be emphasized enough.
The wind knocked them down Einstein
From eyewitness story from a local that was walking by the barricade… there was no lines down yet as he walked by… he walked for another 15 minutes past there and no cars were allowed out.
