Conspiracy theory has it that the calf government started the fires to get some of the federals funds they lost over the sanctuary city funding losses.

it has been clear for a long time now that the “rewilding” of the forests in california are a bad, bad idea. culling out trees that are dying or overgrown kept fires under control for many decades, whether the fires were naturally or intentionally ignited. in the words of a favorite singer of mine from long ago, when will they ever learn?

[apocalypto]

Illegal aliens have been setting fires for years. However, this has been covered up. Ann Coulter mentions this in “Adios America.” I have come across other references also but can’t recall them at the moment.

burn, grow, overgrow,catch fire burn and grow and overgrow. its a natural cycle. its been happening since the beginning of time. man can control it with culling over growth. but some idiot will chain themselves to a tree or drive nails into tree trunks to slow chain saws. .asking How do you stop a Forrest fire? Is like someone jumping out of a plane, not wearing a parachute because it ruins your outfit, enjoying the free fall for 2 minutes and then asking,, What's next? by the time you ask question its too late.

In 1988 1.4 million acres of the Greater Yellowstone Basin burned. The press had a field day criticizing the parks burn policy.
Yellowstone rebounded to be better than it had been since the last big fire in the 1700’s.

EnviroNAZIS will never understand how nature actually works.
Woodlands need to be selectively logged or left to burn.
There are only two options.

Yes logging used to thin the trees so those left grew into big healthy trees, cattle and sheep grazing kept the brush from being overgrown. There were of course fires but not the infernos we have now.

Environmentalists have stopped logging and grazing in many areas and in areas it is allowed not enough is allowed to make a difference. Trees grow so close together they end up being unhealthy toothpicks, so close together it encourages insect and diseases to spread rapidly, old grass, brush, unhealthy trees burn like an inferno.

The blame is more on the courts than the government- in the beginning the enviros sued the government to gain policy changes in forest and other public land management. Over the years more lefties have been hired by the Department of Interior, Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management to the point the enviros control those agencies. The takeover was done with activist judges and lawsuits though.

Now the government agencies have mismanaged the lands for so many years it has become obvious. There are programs being implemented now to change the management. Contractors are hired to thin trees, brush. The logging companies and ranchers paid the government fees under the system the enviros wrecked.

Watched THE BURNING FOREST and RING OF FIRE (1961) the other night. i remember seeing the Manti-La Sal forest on fire back in 1955.

[ridesthemiles]

The Sierra Club started this enviro nonsense. Would please me greatly if people who lost homes & others sued all the ENVIRO groups who stopped the timber harvests & allowed the ‘roadless’ policies.

UNTIL ALL these groups get put out of business permanently, this country will burn & will lose it’s farmers & ranchers.
