I noticed the color of the sky reminded me of a Sherwin-Williams palate color chart but the color would be rejected out of hand for any project short of Halloween decorations. Then, there’s the haze that makes it all look as though the monsters from the Movie the mist would soon be knocking on your door asking if it could borrow a cup of your blood and maybe use your eyeballs as jawbreakers.
The air quality indicators tell me that the conditions are “unacceptable.” I’ve always thought of that as a description that leaves little room for compromise– now after making a stink about wearing a mask — it is all I have got to keep the particulate out of my lungs.. With the sun blacked out everything feels like a fridge– it is not terribly cold — but just cold enough to make you feel like you are in the midst of nuclear winter.
Of course, the ash falling from the sky does not help — the scenery looks like something out of Stranger Things. It is as if I am in the upside down feeling the compulsion to go look for Barb.
However, what is most frustrating is that the other day the triple threat that is our west coast governors, Newsom, Brown and Inslee has stated that these fires are “Climate Change fires.”
Joe Biden commented during a campaign speech that these ‘hellish’ wildfires will become more frequent if Trump wins second term. Oh but that is not all — Al Gore stated in a DNC speech that if Trump is re-elected the earth has two years left.
What is most disconcerting is that while fires such as these happen every year – that pattern of these fires indicate that many of them have been intentionally set. If these are Climate Change fires – they seem to have remained south of the Canadian Border and seem to plaguing the same areas that have been the target of the color revolution.
Now, mind you to even insinuate that the fires may have been intentionally set gets you banned from Facebook –even if it is from a credible news source and there is a police record that shows that there are suspected arsonists in custody.
At least 35 have died from the spate of West Coast fires which many thousands of firefighters are still busy battling. And there are still dozens of missing persons who were in the vicinity of the blazes.
Meanwhile, the mainstream media is busy issuing headlines about Climate fires instead of actually trying to get to the bottom of what’s behind the seeming simultaneous explosion of fires: NPR states that “Oregon Officials Warn False Antifa Rumors Waste Precious Resources For Fires.”
Local Portland media is reporting that a 45-year old man has been arrested for starting at least seven brush fires near a major highway: “A man arrested Sunday afternoon for allegedly starting a small brush fire along Interstate 205 was arrested again hours after he was released from jail after he allegedly started six more small fires,” according to a Portland Police statement.
The suspect, identified as Domingo Lopez Jr., reportedly had a molotov with him upon the second arrest according to a statement:
“After officers and firefighters put out a small brush fire along I-205 around 4:30 p.m. Sunday, a witness flagged down officers about an hour later and said the man who started the fires was in a nearby tent. Police spoke to Lopez Jr., who told officer he lit the fire, police said. He was arrested and a plastic bottle with a wick was seized as evidence.”
