I don't know if I can be convinced this is not arson.
I would bet the house that it is arson.

Officials said that the Santa Ynez Reservoir had been closed since about February for repairs to its cover
This is what annoys me the most about modern America.

That shite should have taken almost no time at all.

They built the Empire State Building in 13 months.

They couldn’t repair the cover of a reservoir in the same amount of time.

A country cannot survive with this level of incompetence.

NEW: LA County Supervisor @kathrynbarger, pretty much the only elected Republican county official, has invited @realDonaldTrump to visit LA County & see the wildfire recovery efforts.

Barger writes: “By accepting this invitation, Mr. President-Elect, you will join us in supporting our citizenry and thanking our heroic first responders, who have risked their own lives to save others. We would also ask you, as our President, to stand with the people of Los Angeles County as we set our course to rebuild. Your presence would be deeply felt and appreciated.”

It’s mind boggling how large LA is geographically. Some parts of the city absolutely devastated while residents in other areas just going about their business.

So much mis-information out there
- Were the funds cut?
- were they increased?
- is the water off?
- is the water on?
- what is really going on?

Former FD guy said on TV that some of these areas have not been Rx burned in over 50 years

Also said the stopped them from using bulldozers to double blade fire breaks

Then stressed that even after they get these fires stopped the threat of wash aways slides & flows will be considerably worse when it rains
