With that many fires going on, perhaps it is time to find a better plane with which to fight the fires. Global Emergency Response has IL-76 Waterbombers that have been used all over the world to fight fires. Watch the video on their site; it is an awesome sight.

This is a real scary visual of the fires in Oregon.

I didn't realize how many were in Oregon when I started this thread. My concern about eco arson has been increased after seeing the numbers of fires in Oregon in this map: (Link to fire map)

Nice going, environmentalists!

Enviromental extremists vote for liberals. Real outdoorsmen vote for conservatives. Eastern liberals have more votes in congress than westerners. Libs don't care what happens to western states.

Just for you:

Our Druid controlled Forestry service would not want these fire drowners used. They are too effective and would stop fires in their tracks.

These fires are just another Rural Cleansing tool of the Enviral Nazis!

I hope that they are in lockdown. I'm in favor of locking down all card carrying enviralists who get a pay check from us while pretending to be foresters.

Lock them down or put them into leg chains for chain gang forest fire fighting teams.

Yeah! What you said!
No, I couldn't agree with you more. The newsies actually said the woman in Colorado was being kept in jail because they couldn't guarantee her safety if she was released from custody!
Gee, ya think?

Yup. It's especially interesting to contrast it with The US Drought Monitor.

I know, thanks for reminding me how close to the enemy I really am (proximity-wise that is). I appreciate that so much perhaps you could just start off every post to me with that line so that I may not forgett...

Libs want to rurally cleanse all of us from our homes in the Western Part of the US. They see us as vile squattors in their Druid Haven/Cathedrals, (We used to call them our forests/parks).

They do care what happens to us. They want all us either dead or crammed into huge inner Goron Voting cities living on Soylent Green and recycled food.

No, he's building an apartment complex. But he said that if that fire gets out of control down there he's going to take his crew and volunteer to help..

Before this summer, there may be a whole of Eco Jihadists locked up for their own protection. They are more dangerous to most of us than Johnny Jihad.

They are EnviralKazis intent on destroy America. Go to one of the links I have above where they state their intentions to burn up America.

A certain big time soy product seller would market it as another healthy soy by product, Soylent Green!:)

If he has a couple of dozers, he and his guys could put some fast fire lanes.

In the old days this was done all the time. Now the Druid infested forestry service NUNS/PRIESTS/ITS refuse the services of men volunteering with bull dozers. They prefer to use man power not to spread a weed seed or something Bravo Sierra like that.

We conservatives in Oregon and California have to be the most frustrated conservatives in America with our left wing governors and the enviral effects in our two states. Let me share this with you:
