Wednesday was not Robert James Fimbres’ night. Thursday wasn’t looking good either. The Napa County man tried to set Old Glory ablaze in his father’s driveway and things got out of hand. He burned down Dad’s garage instead, American Canyon police say.

This is going to be one of those exceptions where it’s ok for a dad to beat his sons ass bloody.

Jumping to contusions sounds painful.😆

Sounds as if the mini-arsonist was jumping to confusions. . . High as he must have been, no matter what reason he had for solo flag burning.

I sometimes think we should have a law against protest burning of anything.

And other times I am just inclined to let things work themselves out naturally.

The fire dept here in Marin is going hog wild this year on taking out wide swaths of vegetation I noticed

Behind white hill they were at it for weeks. My kid is there and I work there sometimes

Same thing in San mAteo county up top on king myn and 84

They saw Santa Rosa Napa and paradise and decided “ it ain’t gonna happen here “

Maybe he wasn’t even in the will. If I’m his old man and I am an old man the safest place for the kid is in jail. Once out he’s homeless and has a mean old man pissed at him.
