Karma . For skewed USforeign policy that prioritizes war. Each bomb or armament detonation for the past century has had chemical repercussions resulting to abrupt climate change. The other entity that severely affected the climate pattern is the Vatican for its issuance of the Papal Bull of 1430.
Reparations are in order.
The future is not your , trust god acceptance and surrender
Living in the foothill mountains for 30 yrs. plus. The winds that night was the most fierce I've ever seen. I prayed on my knees to calm the winds. God bless all who loss homes & loved one's🙏
What about NC ?
Heartbreaking! I can't even wrap my mind around how devastated he must feel. Everything including his sister gone. 💔😭🙏🏼
MISINFORMATION NOTHING PREPARED???? THIS HAPPENS EVERY YEAR. THEY TOOK THE FIRE FUNDS MONTHS BEFORE AND THE RESOVOIR EMPTY A YEAR PRIOR. WAKE UP EVERYONE IT WAS ON PURPOSE THEYRE STEALING YOUR HOMES FOR THEIR SMART CITY.
Its time you repent. do not waste time
El imperio PODRIDO se desmorona y se quema…!!
God is in charge!
Heartbreaking, even from afar. 🙁
There is a tick tock video showing two guys running away from the hills after starting a fire laughing it looks like a very early video why hasn't it been looked into they might have started all this h o r r o r😢😮😮😮
The fire hit California it is the will of god
This was intentional set.
Heartbreaking…
That’s why i am always praying for our firefighters 🚒 because they have a dangerous job
If there is 1 house or two, then firefighters can fight, but here, there are thousands
May God help us to learn a lesson from this tragedy fires, this is a sample of what will this world going to be at the end of the world.
JOIN THE HOMELESS CLUB SIR.
God, this is awful. I am praying for this family, and all the families who lost their homes and loved ones. Just terrible.
As someone who lost everything in a flood and again in a house fire, I don't understand this family! First, we have a guying weeping over a rocking chair instead of his sister that he left to die next door. Second, we find out the son wasted valuable time packing clothes rather than knocking on his aunt's door to see if she was OK. Finaly, we have the mom who is concerned about losing pictures instead of her own daughter.
This is why California is the homeless capital of the United States; the residents are more concerned about their own possessions than they are about their neighbors' lives.
These are Not Stupid people "in charge", this should have had a solution long…long….long ago. Santa Ana winds have been there as long as people have. The police departments have been telling leaders about this problem and its potential. This is whu they must be held accountable and fully punished. Not to walk around in fashion forward clothing looking and acting "Star" like. These positions hace been exploited over the past few aeat holders. There should be NO EXTRAS on our dime for any of them. Its time to "Roll Back" their hoity-toity attitudes. Cuz let me tell you… you're just a person like the rest of us and You've been put in place by us, You can be taken out of place by us. I know most of them will not be able to afford to rebuild and the insurance companies are all broke from all other catastrophes from all over the US. They seem to have food supplies and that sorta thing but they are tight with the money. They so readily collect each month by billions of Souls. SMH ….No wonder God is on the move and Coming Home…. Our leaders hands are dirty and can no longer be trusted. Their intentions are evil like the Bible foretold. They want a city like Dubai… Smart City 2.0 and they know theres no way that you'll want to render your single dwelling paid for home sitting on your piece of property to instead erect a highrise multiple dwelling housing to "house the masses". So, the only way to transform a city is to make it so it has to be rebuilt. This is the concept… You'll own nothing and be happy" see dont worry… You'll have a room/apartment in the highrise they erected on your old property site. The buildings will take up city blocks so multiple homes/land will be used … But all whos land they use (no structure) will have a home again in on of the 23 story bulidins they will erect. Check out the smart cities in Dubai… thats whats coming.
Then do not build there if theres never enough water sources or people to fight any of this.
Perfect storm … Literally! … Im so sorry. 💙🙏💙
State needs cleaning. Start with the political people in charge. They are clearly more worried about things other than the tax paying people that live there.
I blame the planes, they beeen spraying the sky and releasing something that make sure the fire burns. And then u have the women and her husband that owns 60% of the water. So they are burning California down. up and down. to be America you need to be united as one, but our states and counties and city have different views on who should be here. and you know the wind, that is under controlled. No one really pay attention because everyone focus is base on race. all this red lining and egnorants of knowing what this world really is.
blame your representives, ask a lobbist how this works in congress, how much of America is sold, and even if you are a fireman, you should know about the waters that surrounds where people live. And also know that nothing was done until a week later. Listen to what this guy said (they wiped it out- they, they is who had this to happen. So like i said, the planes that release something in the air to make sure this fire burns. only those that fly knows.
Mother Nature is more powerrful than man's efforts. We are nothing next to her force. No high tech, A.I., or science can ever control her. You are not as in control as you think.
Gavin should resign NOW! He’s a fool!
Do you think he also wore clothes pins on his fire jacket before the segment? 😅😂
To think that another human saw it fit to cause so much pain for his benefit n dream is sick
My right to 911 was taken for My family and Lynn Marie Cameron became fake news of abandoned on CNN due to Sabrina Limehouse of CNN story by Jack Maddox as Lynn never had a c section but she did have bilateral ureter recalibration surgery, CNN is libel and slander !!!!
It moved rapidly because it was powdered with explosives.
Not Santa Ana winds. Fort Hunter Ligget detonation fire whirl-winds.
