PER capita, it rises to to 10.6 putting it on par the Dominican Republic.
I previously referenced a study where kids in red states with loose gun restrictions are far more likely to die from guns than those in blue states with more restrictive gun restrictions. Oh, I forgot, guns don't kill kids, kids kill kids, right?
And as far as the inane and ludicrous comparison to abortions is concerned, I'll simply state the obvious, abortions performed legally are just that and not "murder"...

Really how does anyone know?  The fire captains can guess all they want.

There are dozens of factors, including the fact that California as everywhere else in this country are building more and more in areas that are fire prone.  

My guess is that the California areas are suffering from the same reasons that the Black Forest here in my local area burned, 500 houses were lost and one of the reasons given by the "experts" here was that the surrounding brush in the forest was never cleared properly of dried debris.

It strikes me that Darian's suggestions of environmentalists gone nuts in California, and changing their tune on how forests should be managed probably contributed to the fires and their extensive damage areas.

That seems to contradict Rod's assertions of certainty that the problem was NOT due to mismanagement of the forests.  It doesn't surprise me in the least that the environmental impact of not doing the proper maintenance might be a big factor.

I've said it a million times and one more won't kill me.

The hard left is the most intolerant bunch of bigots, haters, and fascists that have ever existed in this country.

We need to start telling them to their faces, GET F--KED, A-HOLES!

James Lacey originally said:
"The current fires are not even in forests"  

P.S. I agree with you.  A buddy here reminded me about what happened in Yellowstone a few decades back, when the "expert environmentalists" decided to let nature take its course.  

That sure was keen.

The Arab countries in the middle east have to recognize the same reality and step up to the plate and do their fair share in absorbing refugees. It's long overdue...
