I have lots of friends and some family that are effected by this. Fortunately they are all physically okay. This is primarily all about massive incompetence of elected officials. Those officials are primarily concerned with DEI, and appearing 'Green'. The video I posted of Adam Carolla talking about the sheer idiocy of those policies and elected officials, is spot on. Instead of 'hiring' people solely because of which gender they are, or the kind of sex they have, or how they 'identify' themselves, hire people who are the best candidates for the important job they will hold. Period.
IF the best candidate for a job is a black lesbian tranvestite, who identifies as a 'furry', more power to them, just be competent to do the job you are entrusted to do. If the only reason you get the job is because you are a "black lesbian transvestite, who identifies as a 'furry' ", well as we see, that's a problem.
Your gender, your sexual proclivities, or whatever is irrelevant, as long as we're talking consenting adults. I'll vote for you IF YOU CAN DO THE JOB. Make sure the infrastructure is ready to handle a potential fire, before it becomes a disaster.
Everyone knows they can get strong winds in the area, yet they have power lines strung from old wooden poles looking like downtown Vietnam. A breeze picks up, and old wooden poles snap, there's a spark, and here comes another fire burning through overgrown foliage on the hills, which in the (distant) past when elected officials had common sense, was managed...
They've been taxed to supposedly take care of these issues, but the money doesn't go to taking care of the infrastructure...
I watched an interview with DEI hire LA Mayor Karen Bass. She is a MORON. Platitudes aren't going to cut it. When asked where citizens can get info on where to get help from their elected officials, she said, go to 'URL'. She isn't competent enough to know you need to follow that up with an actual address...
Or Anderson Cooper asking Newsom why there wasn't any water for the firemen to actually fight the fires, he stammers: "That's a local issue" abdicating his responsibility. If Anderson had any balls, or if he wasn't stunned by the stupidity of Newsom's answer, he would've said you're the Governor, this is all under your purview.
When a nearly hysterical resident asks Newson what he's doing, he tries to hurriedly get into an SUV before she gets too close, but then realizes he's on camera, and feigns being on a call to President Biden. The resident says let me talk to Biden, and Newsom backtracks and says, err, uhh, I'm trying to get a signal. Like it would matter if he was, Biden would just tell him he's a new grandpa, like he did at another press conference regarding these devastating fires...
No one is happy seeing this devastating destruction. I only hope that moving forward, the residents who voted for ideology over competence, reconsider their position.
