The world is a crazy place that's for sure 💫
SAD….But you cant build a million tinderbox homes close together any more.
I love this format. it can never end
😄 %
i have many neighbors in my small town that blow up illegally made fireworks and im basically just waiting for the day i have to grab my dogs and all my things because the neighborhood is gonna go down in flames. its so depressing. the police wont even do anything
So this video taught me that fires in California are racist. Crazy
How bloody tone deaf is this idiotic video
Are americans allergic to brick and concrete?
newsom is an ignorant bigot
HEMPCRETE ! !
how about fires from the liberal riots
That area was never meant for that much civilization, let alone with that type of infrastructure
What they need to do is replant the woodland then build houses with cedar shingle roofs, and wood siding.
make houses of concrete. In India the houses are more densely packed and there's no fire ever.
hi, does anyone here knows what to do with third eye?
The insurance companies refusing to ensure people and quadrupling policy rates is the only thing people listen to. LMAO otherwise people will continue to build inside of floodplains people will continue to construct inside of fire zones. People are hard-headed LMAO😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Provide GPS limited bulldozers so that the thugs can now clean up their neighborhoods
And now they want to build a new city between Santa Clarita and Bakersfield. "Centennial" on the Tejon Ranch, in the name of "affordable housing." Lol. All electric too. Because California's grid is so reliable. Insanity. But hey, there's shareholders to please, wildfire danger and wild open spaces be damned!

The fact that Alaxio isn’t mainstream yet makes this a rare early advantage.
Small market cap now, but if Alaxio sticks to the roadmap, it won’t be for long.

" All a fire needs is fuel, oxygen, and heat", they are being an honest liar, what they should be saying is *All a fire needs is fuel, oxygen, and an IGNITION SOURCE*; the makers are being deliberately vague to further their climate agenda.
