What created the vast majority of the high fuel load was fire supression unless you want to blame environmentalists for the US having trees to burn.

Firefighters died because of fighting fires in the past not because of environmentalists. Many environmentalist say that we shouldn't have even fought these fires. I dissagree with that but that's not the point. The point is that the firefighters wouldn't have died if they were not there fighting the fires. Hence , you assertion the environmentalists are responsible for firfighters deaths is also false.

You are desperately trying to blame people that you don't like for these ills that are not thier faul and using false logic to do so.

As I have said. Yes Fire suppression and other policies were to blame for the buildup.

However, decades ago the government figured this out and tried to make changes in the policy. Those changes included logging of small and medium trees and brush clearing in the process. This would also mean the building of access roads.

The environmentalist blocked at every opportunity, increasing the buildup and preventing the fix the Government had. That is why they are to blame, this could have been solved years ago, yet they presented in their ideology of NO Logging, NO roads.

We created a problem with old the management of fire suppression, now we know how to fix it (we have tried for decades) but cannot because the nuts on the left HATE people in the forest for any reason.

We cannot allow fires to burn until we fix the old problem of buildup. The environmentalist do not want the problem solved.

You question should be why.
