I thought climate change was the cause of the fires.

Should be charged with hate crimes and certainly not let out on bail.

If people died, then charge them with murder. Don't call it criminal mischief.

FTA:
Newsom finally called for voters to unseat politicians 'across the spectrum' who deny the effects of climate change, saying he was not just criticizing President Donald Trump.
Republican state Sen. Jim Nielsen and Assemblyman James Gallagher countered that the cause of recent devastating wildfires and electricity blackouts 'is decades of bad policy enacted by Democrats, not climate change.'
'The excuse of climate change cannot be used to deflect from the fundamental failure to address the fuels build-up in our forests that are the cause of these devastating fires,' they said in a statement.
'These same misguided policy decisions have led to rolling blackouts and an energy grid that is falling apart.’
Amen. Gavin Newsom needs to go.

My sister was evacuated last Wednesday (OR east of I5), they let her back in Friday to check their place (still intact) but they escorted them back out - most all the fires that started days after the lighting strikes are considered arson and they are threatening to entrap people with a ring if fire.

Time to bring back hanging if the evidence is irrefutable. Or alternatively, burning at a stake. But close to immediately, not after years of easy living and amusing and employing attorneys.

Either deal with these people or keep dealing with the results. And by "deal" I do not mean mischief charges.

The only climate that needs to change, is the climate of appeasement when catching one of these idiots. Instant jail time, or a lifetime of service picking up roadside trash, or both.

I remember when NBC purposely rigged a Chevrolet pickup truck to explode in an expose about their defective fuel tank placement. You see, they couldn't get it to blow up when they carried out their experiments, so they called the special effects department.
The Global Warming mongers have the same problem. So, just boost it a little. Set a fire here; set a fire there, and shout about how it's all caused by man's impact on the climate.

According to the idiot Governor Gavin Nuisance of California the fires are a direct result of Global Warming. It's not Global Warming that has caused so much devastation, it's the mismanagement of the US Forestry Department. They have been prevented from removing dense forest undergrowth by Democrats like Gavin Newson. I encourage anyone reading this that lives in California needs to sign the petition to recall Gavin Newsom.

Many if not most of these fires were set by left wing wackos! I would bet money on it! Climate change...you mean Global Cooling...oh wait, No no no Global Warming...oh wait, no no no Climate Change, YEA, that’s the ticket!
