sooooooooooo crazy!!! I guess if it was three white males there would be perfection?
Nothing wrong with Lesbians trying to be firefighters other than in this case it was the only reason they were hired. I doubt these are even healthy enough to run around the block.

you are correct. This hydrant is a very good example of how appearances have been made to look impressive, yet when it's opened up is just empty promises.
yes this is one of the messages of the matrix

we have women running for president, colored people running for president, and on the inside they are rotten and corrupt.

this is the superficial vs the substantial

i think the biggest concern of philosophy or something like that is to be concerned with the substantial.

Again, look at where the wildfires took place, the damage done, the lives lost, the area covered. If you're expecting fire hydrants on huge areas of prairie then I'd say you're a city slicker who doesn't know much. It's reasonable to expect if a large metropolitan area is right up against country that is prone annually to serious wildfires that they do everything possible to mitigate the risk.

I love a lesbo but LA fire is run by THREE lesbians? Are you allowed to just only recruit people in your dating pool?

When it comes to the firefighting business it's a lot more likely that the actual best candidates were chosen to lead a fire department if it's three white men rather than three lesbians.

Some of the gay women I worked with at UPS would probably do well at a fire department but those California women were pure DEI hires.

After criticizing department funding, LA fire chief met Friday with mayor, source says

"Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass had a meeting Friday afternoon with Fire Chief Kristin Crowley, a source familiar with the meeting said.

It comes after Crowley said earlier today that city officials failed her department by slashing its budget by $17 million — a decision that she said is now negatively affecting the agency’s ability to battle the raging wildfires in the county.

Over 100 fire apparatus are out of service, the fire chief said. The budget cuts eliminated civilian positions such as mechanics which has and “will continue to severely impact our ability to repair apparatus,” Crowley told CNN’s Jake Tapper.

“We can no longer sustain where we are. We do not have enough firefighters,” Crowley said."
Y'all are just a bunch of salty ass mother:censored2:as that thrive on negativity and any chance to politicize and demonize.

So you're saying we shouldn't fight forest fires because we can't stop them?

Not at all. But I’m also not an expert, maybe that was the best effort that could be put forward under the circumstances. Instead of blame, I choose compassion, for the people that lost homes and property and life, and the people being ostracized by others because of their perceived political shortcomings. Give it a try, your stress level might come down. It’s a horrible tragedy.

A lot of you crack me up, it’s like you could find the idea that a car accident could’ve been prevented if only a republican built the car, or paved the highway, or programmed the traffic light. These wildfires were a terrible tragedy, stop trying to find so much blame.

Strength through joy
Now the expansion of Los Angeles' Palisades fire has partially shuttered the 405 freeway, as the flames begin to encroach on the celebrity neighborhoods of Mandeville Canyon and Brentwood.

Los Angeles County is still battling at least six major fires with most barely contained.

13 missing, 11 confirmed dead, 10,000+ structures burnt, and FEMA has received over 16,000 applications for individual assistance.

This is far from being over.
