thats the thing ram. it
was a controlled burn. only, controlled with helicopters bropping that red powder stuff. kinda silly to me. the fire went out of control, and instead of 380 acers getting burned, 1200 was burned, by now 1400, the fire keeps starting up again and again and again, each time burning more land, I saw the fire spark up 5 times today from where i am now...
The silly thing about hits 'controlled' burn is that they started it with a large amount of na-palm, how could that be a controlled burn?
And, they didn't plan for all the mines to go off from the na palm, they made the fire to clear the land to make it easyer and safer to set off the mines.
The 400 acers were going to the city to build 'affordable' housing on, but the thing that bugs me is that they never followed through the 2 times they have done it in the past, they have just made mansions and priced them at... ONLY 2500-3000 dollars a month to rent, OR like a million dollars to buy! That does not seem like affordable housing to me.
What really matters to me is that they just blew the place up, not giving the wildlife a chance to get out... they could have started it in a way as to give wildlife a chance to get out...I can't really explain it... I am sickened, as today I saw hundreds of buzzards and vultures around that area...
I also love birds, and many birds are ill and dieing from inhaling smoke... they have found a dead peregrine falcon, an endangered species i think...
