I mean how big of a moron do you have to be to go on national tv and declare to the world that the LA response has been “great”?

Not sure what Huff was trying to say bringing the clip of Burr’s on air spasm - he provided no commentary.
 
Gotta say, I never watch those award shows. However, the best thing I’ve ever seen was the replay of Ricky Gervais ripping those people at the Golden Globes a couple of years ago. The looks on their faces….priceless.
Yeah I haven't watched any of that crap since I was in college

Uh oh, the internet fire experts are butthurt about it.

It's a fkn funny clip and if you didn't say any of the things that he criticized, then you don't have to be butthurt.

You guys see a fact like that they ran out of water and automatically conclude "it was mismanaged" when you have no fkn idea what that actually means. What if they planned really well, but an excessively, and irregular long drought is the problem? You don't have these facts. You have one fact, and you run with it. I have no idea what their water reserve plan was, how it compares to what was sufficient in the past, if nature just said "F*** your plan," etc. Maybe the water was totally mismanaged, but I don't know that yet. All I know is that they ran out.

Bill Burr is smart because he understands he needs more information. Other people get off feeding their own egos by making a harsh judgement off a few facts.

One fact - They've been taxed for over a decade to build new resevoirs. None have been completed. In over a decade.

Lol, Bill Burr said (in the clip you provided) that he thought “everything has been great”.

How can he know that everything was handled “great” if he needs more information 🤔

He didn't say "know." He said "think." He said "I think everybody did a great job" and I don't know exactly what he means by this. Based on how you changed his quote, you probably take this to mean "everybody who had a hand in anything ever did a great job" but he could just be saying responders did a great job. He clearly doesn't think insurance companies are great, so not everybody. The insurance comments are where I have a problem with his viewpoint.

Saying "I think [insert positive comment]." with insufficient information is not the same thing as crucifying people off insufficient information. You get that, right? Probably not.

Or he coulda meant everybody, as he said, which would then include Bass and Newsom. Which would be asinine to say. Shows why he shouldn't be voting next time around.

I think we'd all agree responders did the best they could with what they were given...both in resources and competent superiors...or lack thereof. The fire chief and asst chief are cut from the same cloth as Bass and Newsom. Rank and File Responders will do what they do 90% of the time. It's that mindset they have that leads them to those careers
