Orange Skidmark Strikes Again: Exec. Order to Reallocate California Water Supplies

"Imagine being a grown adult" and talking like a middle schooler in every post you disagree with.

Seriously every post you make comes off like an immature spit ball fight.

Just have a normal conversation.

 

Yes, that's a vote for COMMON SENSE.

 

More common sense.

 

So exactly how is your orange god going to "manage" CA's water for them? You ok with the fed coming into your state and "managing" things too?

 

That’s fine about the reservoirs if the water is there to do it.

 

That Governor Newsome is an anthropological habitat terrorist. Yeah, Newsome deliberately left southern California without water they once had.

I wonder if California even paid to build those damns, or did he destroy federally built and funded damns illegally?

Newsom backs 3 dam removals on California rivers. Here’s where salmon may soon swim freely

California completes largest dam removal in US history

 

Say what ?!

Poster doesn't make any effort whatsoever to actually learn a gottdarn thing about the issue...... but chooses to repeat the Trumpy lies about which (Dem, obviously) pol are very very bad and deserve to be publicly blamed by the ignorant, blaming divider-in-chief.

No, man, you've got it all wrong here; people have a responsibility to either try to understand the issues, or ..... post responsibly - as in not repeat the lies of a hateful liar.




Case in point; I have opinions on religion, police, Ukraine, oter things...... but I haven't made learned as much as probably some other people. So I'm rarely posting in those threads, and if so, probably not strongly or aggressively.

But the guy I responded to was repeating lies. We're past the point where that needs to be called out.

 

Insightful. Thank you.

 

Seems to me somebody needs to learn the causes and details of the recent disastrous wildfires.

Do you usually comment on things which you know absolutely nothing about?

Wait - don't answer....

 

Please share what you believe to be the causes and details. My guess is you don't know them. Your hollow posts have never contained substance. Kamala, is that you?

 

One, January isn't traditional fire season in Southern California. The rainy season usually starts around Thanksgiving, and having Santa Ana winds in January is very unusual.

Two, the three active reservoirs were 100% full. The fourth was built between 1920 and 1955 (different levels) and was down for regular maintenance. Unfortunate, but most things built by humans that are 70+ old need regular maintenance from time to time. And again, fire in January is very unusual.

Three, it's impossible to have fire breaks in the hills above LA. The cliffs are steep, and passages very narrow in many areas. And against 80+ mph winds? You would have to clear cut on very steep terrain, an extremely wide area against the winds.

The better solution is to have some sort of breaks in neighborhoods. Tokyo built some man-man breaks and it helps prevent disasters like the one in LA from spreading too far. But this only happened after Tokyo suffered some similar fires in the 50's and 60's. This is the first major fire in the area in about a century. I would hope and expect the rebuild will borrow from the Japanese and put in a way for man-made breaks in neighborhoods to exist. Will not stop everything from burning, but will hopefully contain the spread and keep the damage smaller next time.

Four, water rights is a constant battle in the west. The Colorado River, which feeds a lot of the west water, was first surveyed during a wetter than average period. The result is the states that rely on that water now how less water to divvy up than expected. In addition, nobody at the time could have predicted the size of LA and Phoenix, which are 2 of the 5 largest cities in the US today. It's a problem, and much of the infrastructure in the west is too outdated, especially when it comes to water management. Too much water and snow run-off simply isn't collected as it should be. And this includes all the desert SW states. We had record snowfall last year. How much of it drained into the Pacific because CA doesn't have enough reservoirs? And AZ isn't any better. Only our water spills out into desert areas when our reservoirs are filled.

 

To maintain the needed level of simplicity; the biggest problem with the LA wildfires was the inability of the local systems wrt water distribution, NOT a lack of available water. The systems were overwhelmed by more fires than designed for. And winds prevented aerial relief measures.

How do you not know this by now? Seriously?


NOW; the reason this is relevant; people like you do our nation a grave disservice when you parrot, or even tolerate, the divisive lies of your divisive liar. If you would just take enough time to adequately learn about the issues, then you would be offended by being lied to by that liar. Since you don't knwo better, you embrace being lied to.

 

I'm fine with calling things out, but calling out maturity is ironic with some of the stuff you sling. Get a mirror and examine.

 

Another mature post

 

Calling out maturity? Did you even read the posts? I was calling out the poster's embarrassing lack of knowledge about a subject he was commenting on. (Well, to be more honest, he was repeating the lies of his hero liar.)

It had nothing to do with maturity. It was about Truth. Learning things, rather than just repeating the lies of a hateful liar.


And by the way, you can please reference my ignorance if I make heavy-handed and absolutely incorrect statements about, say, the Christian church. Bluke can heartily castigate me if I am thoroughly incorrect in my opinions about repeatedly posting not-funny GIFs.

 

The whole "grown adult" thing was a shot and you know it.
