As bad ideas go, this one is right up there. 🤪

Nothing. ☹️

Hottie with very good reviews…but “graduating with a degree in Social Media Management”? Facebook pro, Twitter titan? 😉

“District”? Uh… Yeah, it’s Infrastructure Week here at COM, where know-nothings get to bloviate about some “district” that’s free of “common sense.” 🤪😂

Boring, too.

Condolences. I lived there several years, and god it was awful. 😣

Jealousy is a green-eyed monster. But if I lived in the crap places these folks live in, I would be jealous too.

Even the gospel isn’t the gospel. But cheap dismissals merely expose your vacuousness.

What actually happened with those dry fire hydrants, rather than the guesswork, grandstanding and Fox propaganda posted above, will be found in reporting form a major newspaper: Inside L.A.'s desperate battle for water as the Palisades fire exploded WWW.LATIMES.COM When fire hydrants ran dry, the L.A. Department of Water and Power struggled to get water where needed. The utility's operations chief explains the decisions as the fire...

Yup. Urban fires often start in wilderness and head toward residential neighborhoods, then spread fast-and-furious because buildings fuel each other. Add 80 mile an hour winds, and it’s over. The fuel for these two urban fires, Pacific Palisades and Altadena, comes from houses that were constructed long before California enacted strict building codes aimed at preventing fires and were not retrofitted. That means that future risks could be controlled, in part, with improved building codes and safety practices. If homes are less vulnerable to catching fire, the blazes cannot sustain themselves with fuel from other homes once they leave the wilderness.

A bit of LA wildfire bullshit-mitigation from 1962 — it’s the climate change, stupid:

Yes, he’s pushing more irrelevant blather. Someone needs to tell him that Kern County, which is primarily Central Valley farmland, didn’t burn, and that Vegas, unlike LA, is in the desert, so apples/oranges. LA has had those brush clearance laws in place for years. Residents in high risk areas get annual notices, from both the local government and insurance companies. Ditto LA County. They mean nothing during a fire hurricane. https://file.lacounty.gov/SDSInter/acwm/216383_Clearance.pdf Brush Clearance Requirements | Los Angeles Fire Department LAFD.ORG *Please watch the following videos for Brush Clearance Information* Brush Inspection Training- Target Hazards Brush Clearance Training- On...

Yes. It will be awful when rains come.

Nope, you obviously didn’t read the front page LA Times story on the subject. Your post is wrong, false and irrelevant.

You need to learn how to read. They did not report the ignorant claim you are making. Try reading today’s LA Times, which has a long, explanatory fire hydrant story on the front page.

“Higher profits elsewhere”??? The tone is dismissive because crank claims being made while a disaster is currently underway should be dismissed. Anti-gouging restrictions into March, for example, will have zero impact on “the necessary influx of labor and materials,” which won’t in fact be necessary until months and months and months later. Zero. The obvious absurdity makes “substantive counterpoints” unnecessary, like spitting into the wind.

Saw Rolls Royce (Dennis) last year. Excellent.

He’s almost 42, so that means he’s a Vegas millennial.

In simplest terms, this is called bullshit. Complaining that a short-term policy creates a terrible long-term problem because it’s only a short-term solution is absurd. That’s what the law was designed to be. And claiming it creates impediments to getting labor and materials for rebuilding is, frankly, beyond absurd. I mean, seriously? This is your policy argument?

Under California law, price gouging protections kick in during a state of emergency and generally bar landlords, hotel and motels from charging more than 10% more than what they were charging or advertising before the crisis. The protections were set to expire in February, but Gov. Newsom issued an executive order today that extends them in L.A. County until March 8. Since the fires broke out last week, a wave of landlords have raised rent on their properties well beyond what the rules allow, including increases of more than 50%, according to online listings.

The misinformation (and in a few notable cases, disinformation) being posted here is unfortunate, especially as the disastrous emergency continues to unfold. So far, I have 11 friends whose homes have been destroyed. There are likely to be more.
