If you overlay where fires are actually burning vs the proposed rail line only a tiny % might match up and there are fires in those areas every couple of years. I too remember the Getty fire, I used to one a home in the hills 2 miles from it, and I assure you there is nothing odd about it. When there is any kind of drought the hills get dry as hell and anything can set them off. I had an acre of hillside above my property, not at al usable because it was so steep, and I had to pay to have people come and clear it because if I didn’t and a spark hit it the entire mountain would go up in flames. That area gets ssssooo windy too so the fires spread like well...wildfire.

My dad who was a Master’s Degreed Forester from Duke University “predicted” in the ‘60’s that Federal Forest lands would become a fire diaster due to the uneducated opinions of “environmentalists” who were gaining support in the west. I can remember his lamenting the fact from my childhood. It’s so disheartening to see folks like Governor Brown blame this clearly preventable situation on climate change when nothing could be further from the truth. It would be akin to lining the gulf coast ocean front with mobile homes and then blaming climate change on the enevidable destruction a hurricane would cause. As a nation we have to let professional, educated, experienced individuals dictate scientific policy and get away from these feel good, emotional responses fostered by liberal politicians.
That is never ever going to happen here in the USA. We will never allow expert Forestry folks implement common sense fuel load reduction operations because, like your Dad said, the environmentalist Left seized control of the process decades ago and now they have seized control of the narrative. That's why people like your Dad will be ignored and ridiculed while mass media and Government apparatchniks continue to propagate the false narrative that Climate Change is to blame.
I seriously doubt if California will get control of this fire situation because those who call the shots there are totally Leftist, totally politicized and totally committed to making sure that the GOP and Climate Change are to blame for the destruction.
Let's just be comforted by the fact that it is not our problem.

I'm getting into conspiracy theories. For example, the headline: Michael Avanotti Got Arrested.
It spells out MAGA.
Coincidence?

They do not align.
Neither the inland CA nor the Vegas.
Can you not see they are 20 or 30 miles apart? Might as well be on mars. No relation at all.

Maybe, but it's clear she's read so much and observed enough to know they were going to burn it down.
Agenda21 and 30 are real, in black and white and being implemented at the city level.
Brazil come to pass.
