No, the fail was when people who profess to know it all, don’t know when to keep their snarky, rude, and simply mean mouths shut.

Did you notice that during that 12 minute video, the firefighters didn’t once talk about what “the experts” on this forum have?

They were concerned about loss of life and loss of property.

No blame was cast on the people who lost homes, the terrible Leftist state, the lack of clearing brush, the lack of clearing forests, or mismanaged resources.

This was a housing sub-division, where 100s of homes went up in flames.

The clowns here just couldn’t take a pass.

Shameful.

Thanks,very sad to watch Freepers at times.Both my Son’s are Firefighters.They are there to save lives.No matter your politics both them and their Brothers and Sisters will help you.The video was an account of what they encountered. The OP asked for people to respect the thread.Some people just need to see their name in print.

Thanks.

I did a first and warned them off at the beginning of this thread. But those with no class in the face of horrendous disaster simply cannot help themselves. Shameful, indeed. No compassion, no humanity, no concern about the tens of thousands of people living in shelters and the 10,000 to 20,000 who lost everything.

Shame. FR has gone off the rails in many ways.

Good post, D1.

They didn’t talk politics, the strike team was trying to prevent further loss of property and did.

Oh, I completely agree. I battled that sort of mindless, heartless, anti-Cali hate for years, here and elsewhere. Still do sometimes, but now I battle anti-Texas bigotry too.

I can only imagine how New York Freepers must feel.
