Dude, There is no crawfishing by me. I said in previous posts that it would have saved a few homes. To your credit, you have not crawfished either; you are still stuck on stupid.

That is correct when the fires aren’t burning. When they are, missing 117m gallons will definitely matter.

Yes, and I said so.
You said a few homes.
Since you a team Newsome, how few homes, 3 or 4?
A guy kept his home safe with a garden hose. Everyone around him burned to the ground.
117 million gallons of water would have helped save more than “a few homes.”
Don’t be a tool.

Team Newsome? All of my posts are criticizing the forest management that he has been a part of. My posts allow that the lack of water is a failure of local government. My posts criticize the state for their failure - over decades - to build reservoirs. How do you get Team Newsome out of this?

People should go to jail for this.

Is that approximately crawfishing by you?

You have been drifting further and further left. It just stood to reason.
My apologies.
On another note, those “local officials” probably had to go through the state to address the “issues” with the empty reservoir.

Thanks. I’m not drifting further left. Consider other possibilities.
Here is what I think: The right in America, and many other western nations, is becoming more radical due to the illiberal onslaught from the left over the past dozen years or so. In some ways this needed to happen. Only by becoming very confrontational (not the way conservatives are normally wired) can we defeat the radical woke left.
The downside of this is that every crackpot news story - real or fake - is immediately believed and amplified. In my opinion this hurts the movement I think we both believe in. It makes it very easy for the left to point and say, “Listen to these crackpots.” And they do. We can dismiss this, but the battle is always and everywhere for the undecideds and the persuadable.
A great example was the 2020 election aftermath. I felt like the election was likely stolen by old fashioned vote harvesting made easier through relaxed voter ID rules. But off the right went after Dominion conspiracies. If we had stayed focused on what was likely real, we could have convinced America. It would not have gotten trump into the White House, but it would have avoided what seemed like the democrats only platform plank besides JOY.

You apparently do not know that you can extinguish embers with water

No kidding. Even Gavin Newsom concedes that point.
Certainly the lack of fire mitigation efforts, along with misplaced environmental priorities, contributed to the disaster. Yet it isn’t an either/or equation.
It is asinine to suggest that having a 100+ million gallon reservoir operational wouldn’t have made a difference in fighting these fires. Yet here we have Penhead is telling us we all are morons for questioning how this scenario was allowed to transpire.

No it isn’t. Good Lord, you’re a moron.

Wrong. The scope and damage this fire has caused make it unprecedented, no matter what your politics are.

is 600 gallons per 1800 square feet of house
The absolute minimum for the truck to be certified is 500GPM.
The hoses reduce it to around 150GPM. So are average fires out in 4 minutes?

Scope and damage can be a function of poor planning/resourcing leading up to the fire and consequent remarkably shitty response to it. It doesn't have to be that this fire is truly unprecedented.

Might have. But this has nothing to do with the post to which you responded. This is a constant theme on here. Advocates of a certain position deem every argument, and every claimed data point that militates in favor of their argument, to be correct. This one was faulty, which I pointed out in (I think) unassailable logic.
What an absolute ignorant moron lol
