Rare piece of actual journalism
KREM TV has run an amazing article on the state Destroyer of Natural Resources (DNR). For the second time, DNR has intentionally let a small wildfire grow into a deadly monster.
The first time was in 2002 near Hanford. A fire had started in a farm field. A county road crew happened to drive by with their backhoe on a trailer. They saw the small fire and began digging a break around it. A State Destroyer drove by and ORDERED the county crew to stop, because some fucking Endangered Bacterium might be somewhere in the universe.
This time the witnesses to official arson are far more numerous and far more effective. Hundreds of homeowners are filing a lawsuit against Destroyer. A small fire was started by lightning, and Destroyer crews stood around watching it grow to properly murderous and unstoppable dimensions. Again the Destroyers officially stopped all attempts to fight the fire.
Read the whole thing, dammit.
This is the SECOND time Destroyers have destroyed a large part of the state, but it's the FIRST time that professional journalists decided to take the side of the people (and the side of Nature!) against fashionable genocide.
Kudos to KREM for a unique achievement, especially considering that there won't be any Peabody or Pulitzer awards for reporting facts. You only get awards for serving the devil.
