California Lunacy Thread

You are assuming they have the equipment in place for them to use and didn't send it to Ukraine...

I agree in principle, but if it's major metro help they want, LA would be far better served getting firefighters out of Sacramento, San Fran or San Diego or any department in California that's used to dealing with the type of fires they have. As well as knowing the local landscape.

Agreed they would be better served getting help from nearby. Hopefully that help is coming.

Even if FDNY was serving purely in a support role, it would be better than nothing - surely they can perform better than the inmates from the local jail.

Actually, some of those inmates are damn good firefighters.

"No ceasefire" meant more destruction of housing and death to those inside. Housing for everyone, guilty and innocent. So yeah he had a point.

If you and like-minded neighbors lob rockets into my yard for decades, you don’t get to play victim because I’m better at it. If you break into my home to rape, torture, kidnap and kill us, the hell with your homes and your depraved tactic of making them, the ‘innocent’ who elected you, your human shields.

You visited this upon them. When I feel secure again, it can stop. That’s the only point.

And you‘ll know how to prevent a repeat, but we both know you will, don’t we?

Honestly...

She's not wrong too refuse such a thing. FDNY is entirely structural in their firefighting. They are very likely not trained in the firefighting that needs to be done in LA.

Kinda appears the Cali FD isn’t either.

What they up to now? 31,000 destroyed acres?
