Hear yah. It would be like Haiti.
Lefist democrat party communists want you ans I dead and they do not care how it happens.
I guess Democrat politics are more important than people’s lives to a Democrat.
Be sure to thank your Democrat friends, neighbors, coworkers and relatives.
‘Water Requires Conversations Around Equity’,
___________________________________________
Hawaiians were the wrong color ???
This wasn’t incompetence.
Look at the census data for Lahaina.
This was genocide.
See my reply #65.
That utter piece of shit needs dragging out and stringing up.
Honest to God, I hope one/some of the survivors deal some seriously rough justice to that maggot.
No surprise re being an acolyte of the muzz traitor Øbama.
Be a shame if M. Kaleo Manuel, Deputy Director of Hawaii’s Commission on Water Resource Management, “disappeared.”
Be a shame if M. Kaleo ‘Loretta’ Manuel would drown after a plane crash.
Yes I agree...
Plus the siren didnt work ...
I’m leaning towards a helicopter ride.
The victims of the fire would love to have a conversation about equity. Unfortunately, they’re dead. The blood is on this DEI disciple’s hands.
We don’t know that it didn’t work.
Just that it didn’t sound.
Mew, bud, they took out pthe useless eaters.
Lahaina was ethnically cleansed.
Same thing happened on the Thirty Mile Fire in Eastern WA state.

Before the Thirty Mile Fire turned deadly July 10, dispatchers delayed sending a helicopter to drop water on the flames because they were unsure whether they needed permission to draw water from a river containing threatened fish, the U.S. Forest Service said yesterday.
Fourteen firefighters and two hikers were trapped late that afternoon by the fire along the Chewuch River in Okanogan County. Four of the firefighters died. One critically burned firefighter remains in the hospital.
Yesterday, Rep. Scott McInnis, R-Colo., chairman of the House Resources’ forest subcommittee, suggested that concerns about Endangered Species Act protections may have contributed to the deaths.
A nearly two-hour delay did occur that day, but not because of the strictures of ESA, said Elton Thomas, fire-management officer for the Okanogan and Wenatchee National Forests.
Water can be plucked from a river without permission from wildlife agencies during such an incident, Thomas said. However, in the water- and fish-sensitive Methow Valley area, dispatchers may have been simply “trying to do the right thing,” he said.
One firefighter trapped that day believes the delay was critical.
“If we’d had the water when we’d asked for it, none of this would have happened,” said Ellreese Daniels, a 24-year firefighter. When the water did arrive, it was too late to be useful, he said.
In memory of my buddy at the time, Texas Cowboy
My memory takes me back to Pinochet when helicopter rides where in style....
> Yet the people STILL vote overwhelmingly democrat in these areas. <
Don’t forget the power of relentless propaganda. Folks who live in heavily Democrat areas get nothing but propaganda from their local and national news sources. I’ll bet you a dollar that their leftist news sources won’t even mention this water story.
Sure, they could go to sane sites like Free Republic. But before you can go somewhere, you have to know it exists. I myself would not be here except that my brother told me about it.

Evidence shows it was deference to the ESA during the relatively safe mop-up phase that allowed the fire to regain its deadly form.
