Maui fire. What is going on?

[EasternVol]

Because they were all local indigenous Hawaiians that have been refusing to sell out for decades.

Sarcasm?

Hawaiian Electric knew of wildfire threat, but focused instead on mandated shift to renewable energy

Mehh... I get it. The power lines could have been a factor... maybe? But have you seen the devastation and barren landscape left behind? That was no ordinary fire.

 

[EasternVol]

Dead people don’t tie things up in litigation. Governments have literally killed hundreds of millions of people in recent history alone. I don’t know if they did this time or not, but it isn’t far fetched.

Their heirs can though.

Was it a super fire? Those CIA fires burn hotter. Melt steel beams, I heard.

How in the heck can you assess ordinary from extraordinary fires, Ras???

Thank you.

I hate politicians as much as the next guy but I try to keep some perspective on it.

It was a Jewish space fire.

It was a Jewish space fire.

Those extinguish themselves at sundown on Friday.

Looked hot enough to melt steel beams.

Beat me to it.

That failing, the refusal to do the little things necessary to sustain civilization itself, just murdered hundreds of people."

Sounds like a fire hazard.

It should be fine. I stored it next to my lumber supplies and kerosene.

Maui residents say utility trucks blocked roads as they tried to flee

 

[McDad]

I saw where the man who made the call to not set off the sirens has resigned. I am not convinced the man made the wrong call. Assuming the sirens are tsunami sirens, if those sounded wouldn't the people have run away from the water and safety? In an emergency situation I think people would default to their conditioning. Even with fires blazing, they may not think to run towards the ocean with a tsunami warning going off.
Or, should he alerted the residents and trusted them to use their judgement?

What do yall think?

I agree with the two of you.

“The public is trained to seek higher ground in the event that the siren is sounded,” he said. “Had we sounded the siren that night, we’re afraid that people would have gone mauka,” meaning inland, or toward the mountainside. “And if that was the case, then they would have gone into the fire.”
Green echoed that later in the news conference. When he first moved to Hawaii, he said, people told him, “If you hear a siren, it’s a tsunami and go to high ground.” Based on his own experience, he would have expected a tsunami if he’d heard a siren, he said at Wednesday’s news conference."

IDK so this is a question. Were the sirens specifically for tsunami warnings or general warnings? If they were specifically for tsunami warnings then yes he probably made the right call but as with any tragedy heads must roll starting down the hill of power.

From what I have read they aren't specifically for Tsunamis. However, it's what they are most associated with.

I didn't see that tidbit anywhere. Thanks.

I see all that training has put you in good safety.

Maui disaster was 100% caused by human failure

 

[Gandalf]

If their plan was to destroy the property so they could gobble it up through some natural disaster loophole, why would they need to murder the folks fleeing? That seems a little bold, even for a conspiracy psychopath like yourself.

This is another failure to recognize government incompetence and insert the illuminati.

My rule is:

Never ascribe to malice what can easily be explained by sloth, incompetence and mendacity.

This goes double when speaking of the government.

Climate Activists Are Getting People Killed

It is a heavy charge to blame a movement for a tragedy like the wildfires that killed at least 100 people in Maui, but the more information we get about what started the fire and how it spread, it sure seems like climate activists and their Democratic Party minions are the reason people died.

The Wall Street Journal reports today that Hawaiian Electric knew for years that the combination of unsecured power lines and invasive dry brush was causing a huge spike in wildfires, but instead of investing resources in securing power lines and clearing brush, the company spent millions trying to meet Democratic Party-created renewable energy mandates instead.
