    New Fire Hits the 405 Freeway, in the Heart of Los Angeles

    SANTA MONICA, California — A new fire broke out early Wednesday morning near the 405 Freeway in Los Angeles, shutting down the busiest road in the United States in the midst of the early commute.

    Those already on the 405 shared photos and videos of the blaze on social media. Los Angeles fire authorities closed down the freeway shortly thereafter, disrupting the morning commute for hundreds of thousands of people traveling between Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley.

    Well... aside from me just being slightly facetious, how about karma for letting a repeatedly deported illegal alien walk around Scott free and then steal a pistol and kill an innocent woman and then let him off for that too because they're a sanctuary state in defiance of federal law... just for starters...

    So because you dislike the politics in California you think the fires are deserved, that about right? Because if it is, I suggest you take a step back from politics for a while. No one, regardless of their politics, deserves to be faced with the life and property threatening fury of what we are seeing out there. I lived out there for more than thirty years, in the areas that are burning. I have family out there still, all of whom are affected by what's going on and I can assure you none of them deserve what's facing them. I have a brother who is a Ventura County firefighter, risking his life to protect others and put out those fires, so forgive me if your facetiousness falls on deaf ears.

    I've been praying for all, now I will send special for your family, friends, especially your brother. I stand in awe of all firefighters, but the ones out here in the West are a special breed.

    l knew that's what you'd accuse me of. You completely missed my jest and instead read far more into it than intended.

    Do I have sympathy for the "good" people of California? Absolutely. I have relatives in California as well, and I hope they're all safe, as well as your brother. I have nothing but respect for all the firefighters.

    Do I have sympathy for the all the illegal aliens like MS-13 and the ones like Kate's killer, or any of the radical un-American filth that protects these animals and helps facilitate their criminal behavior? Hell no. I wouldn't give a crap if their shack burnt to the ground with all of them in it, and if that upsets you, oh well, I can't do much about that.

    But you assuming that what I meant in jesting Karma was intended for ALL the people in California, you're wrong, so I suggest you calm down and try not to let your emotions distort things that aren't as diabolical as you'd like to make them sound.

    I don't believe in karma. Among other reasons, Hitler Stalin and bin laden and the like only died once.

    I have never considered natural disasters or diseases like AIDS to be some kind of plagues.

    I never liked it when Jerry Falwell said 9/11 was God's vengeance for sin. Or Jeremiah wright's "Americas chickens" comment.
