Fires are racist.
Notice how no fires ever burn Caucasian people’s homes?
Oh,... wait...
Living in New Mexico I really feel sad for these folks. Fire can destroy hundreds of years of living in hours, minutes.
Why do they now capitalize “black” but not “white”?
Racist Wildfire?
Trump’s fault?
MAGA voter’s fault?
Glow-bull warming?
Sad. We used to drive past Weed all the time going up the 5 back to Washington State. Beautiful area.
You can drive through Weed in about one minute, so how many people are we talking about ?
I call BS
I just heard about this from a youtuber I watch. The mill burned to the ground and will have far reaching consequences.
Story about smoking weed? Not clickbait in most cities.
After the fire Weed was smoking. Now it’s interesting.
A real shame; small, picturesque town.
We got stranded there in the 90s, when a VW tire installed by Les Schwab, in Medford, went flat, and we couldn’t change it.
Lug wrench wouldn’t budge the lug bolts. Station’s air wrench couldn’t break them loose. A trucker & his 6’ cheater bar couldn’t budge them.
Several hours later, a minister on his way to a church conference in Portland, driving an older econobox, was carefully calculating how much gas he could afford, to get him to a cheaper station in Oregon.
I bought him enough gas to get to Medford, in return for taking the wife & I there; then, when we arrived, we filled his tank for him.
Our handyman neighbor picked us up, and drove us back again in his work truck, and used his torch & tools to loosen the lug bolts.
That minister received regular donations to his food pantry/soup kitchen ministry for years.
