    This should very obviously be illegal.

    I can't reply in the main thread so, I guess I need to start my own.

    Can someone explain what is going on here? 3 fires started at exactly the same time? This is obviously timelapsed video, but this doesn't look like 3 separate "accidents" to me. I've still not seen a word on what exactly ignited the fire. But it seems if it were a powerline, we'd have heard something about that by now.

    I love how in your "proof", there is the reader context telling you this video isn't from the fires, and you completely ignore it. Fitting

    That takes accountability.

    you know what. i think youre right. i bet gavin newsome and p diddy created these fires to destroy LA. Diddy needs a distraction and newsome is dying to have his largest city on fire so he can get blamed for "denying water". It makes sense. And Oprah. I bet that POS had something to do with this too. First Maui, now this. Oprah wants the land.

    Just talked with a friend that lives in Pasadena, his neighborhood isn't threatened as yet. He was telling me that because of the green chaparral that grew quickly and dried up fast made it very dangerous. A lot of dry mixed with green.

    Talked to my friend in LA. Wind blowing in other direction so sage for now but air quality awful.

    Apparent cause of fire was high winds blowing power lines down, which contacted dry foliage. PGE talks a good game about burying power lines to reduce fire hazard.

    CNN brought on Scott Jennings to say disaster due to mayor and fire chief being Black women. Because they can't possibly be qualified, only white men are hired or elected for their qualifications. They had Congresswomen Jasmine Crockett and Stacy Plasket to tell him he's full of shit.

    Burying all power lines should be default. All lines in general should be buried.

    120k miles of power lines (this is apparently way low, see Barfo's comment below) in the US multiplied by an average of $3 million per mile would be roughly $300 billion.

    As you're doing it you can upgrade the rest of the infrastructure as well, and run Fiber optic to every home on the grid and offer utility Internet (infrastructure owned and maintained by the government) which ISPs have to compete to sell service on.

    *Edit* You could probably replace all of the lead pipes in the country while you're at it... This would allow you to have conduit for easy access to all utilities.

    My daughter says she saw the Runyon Canyon fire in the distance from her deck last night. But thankfully, she's still safe. ❤️

    @SlyPokerDog are there any forum rules for purposely posting false information like this. Don’t come on here to read fake shit.
