Can we also just admit that these people built these structures in a biome that wasn't ideal for it?

The entitlement of it all. It was ok when it had a few houses, but now it's overdone.

Check this graphic out. These are the wind reports from yesterday. Some places saw over 80 mph wind.

Bunch of rich celebs lost their crib so this will be big news
Already started to notice on some of these entertainment media shows covering the fires, whenever they talk to a regular person who lost their home/business etc it's just like they rush through the interview..then when it gets to the celebs talking about the same thing they play the sad piano music in the background :rolleyes:

500M, shit he doesn't know the value of some of them homes up there.
Some of those homes can easily worth 500M apiece.
I'm guessing that the aid is for something like food and temporary shelter etc...
They usually authorize emergency money in chunks. I would say give it some time before more money is allocated.

However to be honest, I don't expect the government to bail out those rich folks that should easily be able to afford insurance. They will probably get some money but not nearly enough to cover all their losses without private insurance.

I don't think there is a fire equivalent of what southerners get for federal flood insurance.

LOS ANGELES (KTLA) – Firefighters are racing to contain a new wildfire that has erupted close to homes in the area of Calabasas and Hidden Hills, northwest of Los Angeles, on Thursday afternoon.

The Kenneth Fire was first reported around 2:30 p.m. in an area of dry brush in the Upper Las Virgenes Canyon Open Space Preserve, north of the 101 Freeway.

The fire was estimated to be 50 acres and growing rapidly at 3:45 p.m., and homes were imminently threatened.



Sky5 footage showed flames encroaching on multi-million dollar homes with pools and tennis courts in their backyards.

The Los Angeles Fire Department has issued a mandatory evacuation order for Vanowen Street south to Burbank Boulevard, County Lane Road east to East Valley Circle Boulevard.

Sky5 footage showed helicopters dropping retardant around the fire’s perimeter and fixed-wing aircraft dumping water to protect homes.

Smoke was billowing across the 101 Freeway.

This latest fire has emerged as crews struggle to contain two other significant wildfires that have destroyed several thousand structures in the Los Angeles metro area: the 17,000-acre Palisades Fire in Pacific Palisades and Malibu and the Eaton Fire in Altadena and Pasadena.

Blame Black women, go straight to calling them a bitch. Karen Bass didn't defund the fire department, she reduced their budget $17M (for salaries, ie empty positions) out of $900 fucking million that they still received.

Blame Black women, the fire chief is unqualified. She was a cop, an engineer, a paramedic and she scored in the top 50 out of 16,000 fire personnel on her exams.

By the way the utility companies are skirting responsibility for starting this entire shit.


MAGA always target Black people and the liberal mafia, but never get to the root of the problem.

The fire water well reserves ran dry, well nobody ever complains that the California agricultural industry uses more water than all the households combined, in a fucking desert. The farming industry that feeds the entire country is team MAGA.

Ignorant ass Wacka Flocka is comparing the military budget to a State budget. He knows damn well that State won't get shit from Trump as soon as he takes over.
