We all knew you were dumb, but, you don't know how fire and water works?

 

You think that one reservoir would have saved the Palisades?

You still would have ended up with serious drops in pressure,” Adams said in an interview Thursday. “Would Santa Ynez [Reservoir] have helped? Yes, to some extent. Would it have saved the day? I don’t think so.”

 

8 months of no rain!!! Ground is still wet!!! Fill a reservoir!!!!

LA’s mayor Karen Bass can barely read her prepared statement, can’t even pronounce the word heroism correctly. Just awful, horribly embarrassing for LA

 

[weepaws 3,191]

I saw some videos about how the golden globe awards mocked God, opps.  

Galatians 6:7.  Do not be deceived, God is not mocked, for what ever a man sows, that he will also reap.  Indeed 

Rain would help put out those fires, who brings the rain, God.  

James 5:18.  Then he prayed again, and Heaven gave rain, and the earth bore its fruit.  Indeed 

Amen Thanks.  

Sad situation, but even more sad, His mocking the Lord.  Indeed

Our leaders praise ‘diversity’ without prioritizing what the public really needs

 

And while she first avoided media questions and then stumbled her way through a shambolic press conference, perhaps she began to sense that recently cutting millions of dollars from the LA fire department’s budget was not the wisest thing to do.

In the last city budget, Bass slashed an incredible $17 million from the LAFD. And while individual firefighters have fought heroically to try to put out the blazes, the fact is that the department was badly under-resourced.

Yesterday morning I sat down with a local woman and her teenage son whose house and entire neighborhood had just burned to the ground. Nothing was left standing. Did she see any fire trucks, I asked? “No. Not a single fire truck entered our area,” she said. “Not one.”

Other residents noted the number of fire hydrants to which firemen went only to find out they had no water in them. How can anyone fail so badly at their job that the one thing they are meant to do — keep the water on — is something at which they failed?

Again, you're very smart BOYO, no dummy at all. But you do you agree that Wokeness and DEI can be a determent. This retard Bass couldn't even read a prepared statement, didn't know her own policies and cared more about spending money on Diversity Programs, Tranny Shelters and solar Street lights instead of outdated infrastructure. The highest taxes in the Country, where's it going? TRANNY SHELTERS. 

I say Fuk DEI and Fuk Wokeness. I don't care about feelings, I care about having the best people (regardless of color or race) in meaningful positions, political or civilian.

Say it with me, Fuk DEI and Fuk Wokeness.

Boyo, you're smart as well, and you know that Bass was elected mayor by the people of Los Angeles.  She wasn't appointed as some sort of DEI initiative.  I know you hate DEI but you're barking up the wrong tree here my friend.

You can question her incompetence all you want.  But to blame her incompetence on the fact that she is a woman of color and eats box is off base.  She was chosen by the people and if they decide she sucks, they will choose someone else.

Facts not feels.

Nobody is saying it's because she's black. It's because she's unqualified to do the job and that's been proven true. She spent her career as a physician assistant and community activist.

You know as well as I do that she was elected because she's a black Woman. Reminiscent of when CNN and MSNBC were calling people racist and sexist for not voting for Kamala. They skipped the fact that she's an idiot. 

Merely being a "Black Woman" doesn't make you qualified for anything.

That's okay.  These same idiots will continue to vote for Democrats.  I mean, THIS is what they voted for so I don't understand all the complaining.  They voted to prioritize DEI, defunding police and fire, free credit cards and housing for illegals and choo-choo-trains to nowhere.  That money has to come from somewhere.

After destroying their area with their vote, they'll then move to another area and ruin that too.

I don't have to. It's on full display and now everyone knows that another DEI failure has occurred at the hands of Woke voters. 

They voted for her only because she's a black woman, no other reason. They could of elected Caruso who is a Real Estate Mogul and understands how this all works. They didn't need to spend 5.6 million on Tranny Shelters and Diversity Programs. They needed to update the old infrastructure. 

Ya get what ya get when you vote DEI. 

How's it going California??

Of course they are. 

This is what CA voters voted for.  From the fire chiefs, police chiefs, to the mayor to the Governor.  Should be ZERO complaining.  The priority here is to help people rebuild their CURRENT homes so they don't move to another area of the country and ruin that too.  No way. You stay right where you are.

I never said she is qualified because she's black.  But you can't cry DEI just because she's unqualified.  There are lots of unqualified straight white males.  Crying DEI is ugly boyo.  You're better than this.

[The Real timschochet 6,763]

“The money that could have saved homes from the fire was spent on DEI and trannies instead” is such an absurd and idiotic argument that’s it’s not worth really responding to. I am not going to defend Karen Bass here. I don’t like her and I don’t  think she’s good at her job. But she was elected, she’s not a DEI hire. 
 

I want and expect a society in which competent people do their absolute best to cope with crisis and extreme weather, where diversity is encouraged, where transsexuals are protected, treated with respect and dignity and have the same rights as everyone else. These are not and have never been contradictory goals.

1. If a black person does something incompetent and you criticize him or her it’s perfectly OK to do so. 
 

2. If a black person does something incompetent and your response is “DEI hire” you’re engaging in racism. You may think you’re simply attacking a political idea (the promotion of racial diversity in society)  but you’re not. You’re making a collective judgment about competency based on skin color. It’s hateful and bigoted.
