When I was a kid, this sort thing was a semi-regular occurrence, confined to “brush fires” in every case I recall. It was very “bad” to do, and I never knew anyone who did it, but there were always opinions on the matter.

Think you are right about Mohamed and Muhammad. Imitation of fires in Israel.

The initial fire, or what they think was the initial fire, was relatively small. But hurricane-force winds preceding a storm blew embers for miles, resulting in an enormously quick, huge inferno around the Gatlinburg area.

They should be investigated, yes. Charged if there is enough evidence to get it past a Grand Jury. That's routine.

But we don't simply retaliate against family, relatives and friends or assign collective guilt ("take it out on them") --- to do so is ISIS ethics.

That only makes it worse. Even my great granddaughters know not to have matches, etc when there are no burn warnings out. One is 7 and the other is 8. They knew exactly what they were doing just like the dummy who set fires in another state because he was bored. We finally got out from under that warning after our recent rains. I even read an article that a fire fighter set fires so he would get paid fighting them. There are some weird people in this country. I can not think of a punishment suitable for these characters.

That man did not set these in TN. Think he was in NC or GA.

I won’t post a link, but I’ll post this from Google Maps:

Highland Elementary School, 1301 Edge Hill Road
Abington, PA 19001
40.123332, -75.123567

I went to K thru 2nd grade there. If you pan to the 500 ft length scale, you’ll see the hospital where I was born to the south of it, and to the north you’ll see RR tracks from the top center to the left, same as then ( mid fifties.) We lived on Wayne Avenue, running away from the school towards the tracks.

Incredibly, that house is still there, and looks substantially the same as it did then. The first time I saw that on Google street view I almost felt dizzy.

Anyway, those houses along the tracks were not there then, only a broad right-of-way overgrown with tall grass, which would get dry in the summer. Say no more.

They may not indict any of the family, they will bankrupt the family and make life so uncomfortable for them that they have to move.

And then the families will get hit at the civil trial.

WASP is an acronym for White Anglo Saxon Protestant.

WASP is an acronym for White Anglo Saxon Protestant.

Some years ago there was a silk stocking RINO named John Lindsay who, among other roles, was mayor of NYC. In one of his fits of racial pandering he refused to use WASP; but instead changed it to ASP, since calling Anglo-Saxons white was, according to him, redundant.

John was a heckuva fellow.

As others have pointed out, that works for a city crime. For a country crime there are stupid white youths.
