Do you have confidence that the police and National Guard can protect your property in the fire areas of LA County?

These clowns can't even protect their own property.

In the midst of the devastating wildfires that have ravaged Southern California, a brazen theft has compounded the challenges faced by the region. On January 8, 2025, between 8 p. m. and 11:30 p. m., unidentified individuals infiltrated the Army Reserve Center in Tustin, California, making off with three Humvees and a cache of military equipment.

The fact that someone would take advantage of a disaster to steal from the government is absolutely appalling. We need to find these criminals and prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law.

Details of the Theft
The perpetrators executed a calculated break-in at the Army Reserve Center’s storage warehouse. They breached several storage lockers, seized their contents, and proceeded to cut through a fence to access the military vehicle parking lot. The stolen Humvees included one armored vehicle and two with cloth doors. In addition to the vehicles, the thieves absconded with:

40 binoculars
8 machine gun vehicle mounts
7 machine gun tripods
18 bayonets
Unspecified medical equipment
Notably, no firearms or ammunition were reported missing.

According to the Tustin Police Department and as reported in Newsweek, they believe multiple thieves were involved in this coordinated effort. The robbers tried to breach a uniform storage facility but failed.

LA County Sheriff Luna had the following to say about looting in general during the fires: “It’s always sad when I have to say this, but part of our responsibility is to make sure no one loots or steals from our residents or our community members who are already being impacted. So if you are thinking about coming into any of these areas to steal from our residents, I’m going to tell you something: You’re going to be caught, you’re going to be arrested and you’re going to be prosecuted.” Well, they didn't get caught. WTG guys!

OY VEY!

"I hate taxes." Have lowest taxes globally.

"Why can't my taxes do anything right." California using fucking slave disposable human life as bodys from prison while the elite buy private firefighters.

Here i am Wondering why all the supply and demand isn't solving every problem like it's supposed to?

[Daniela1982]

I don't know. A lot of celebrities had their houses burned down too, like Paris Hilton. So being rich did not help her any.

[NaultD]

Kinda the point of collective government. Fully funding things before it's out of control.

Far too few of them, it's a fallacy.

Imagine if "terrorists" actually want to attack the country how successful they would be. Should be counting our lucky stars so far that we've avoided the inevitable.

[Daniela1982]

But for how long? I personally think that the fires were set as an act of terrorism. Have you seen on YouTube that anything about the fires they have Muslims posting that the US deserved it for what we did to Gaza and all the innocent women and children that died. In a way, we were partly guilty as we provided Israel with the munitions.

I wouldn't rule out intentional acts, but be surprised they thought of it. Now that it's "obvious", the risk of copycat is great. The whole of the east coast could be torched. Don't need planes and nukes... but a few committed souls, maybe some drones.
I've seen those posts... people that have seen those they care about being crushed by the power of USA... would cheer at our misery and death. The human justification is there.
I accept that reality at this point, I don't see how to appease the hatred. Do you? A foot washing isn't going to cut it.
I'm thankful I get to live right now, hope people don't suffer too much and die quickly when it happens. There's no question the "innocent" would suffer, we saw that on 9/11. Only a question of how "ignorant" we will be this time... like last time.
Is there another idea? As they say, the die has been cast. Such travesties in the past only ended when the other side was crushed and the emperor gave in. I doubt that is the case here.

[lightbulb27]

Even if we are 99.9 % successful... there's still that.01% that will occur.

I felt that I had arm myself after my next door neighbors house was broken into. It was not something that I wanted to do but I do feel safer with access to weapons if the need arises.

The governor of California, and the mayor of Los Angeles, Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass, respectively, both need to resign immediately. Neither of them know what they're doing.

[Massageman]

Oy vey? so, vhat you eckspect from the shlemiels "managing" CA?

[NathanDavis]

[Likes2drive]
