On the other hand “how can the city be so ill-prepared for a fire like this” BECAUSE IT IS A NEW KIND OF FIRE. CLIMATE CHANGE IS MAKING THINGS WORSE FASTER THAN WE CAN PREPARE. “Where is city leadership” then one second later “LAFD and amber alerts told us to evacuate” … that is city leadership babe

FUN FACT: Now that Trump has felonies on his criminal record, he won’t be allowed to own a gun (per federal law) and he must provide a DNA sample for New York’s crime databank (per state law).

And if one of these CEO's security details gets shot in an effort to protect them, they''ll probably deny that person's medical claims. LOL!
Don't help them, folks. Let them rely on the police, just like the rest of us.

They’re scared.
And they’re not just scared because of one shooting. They’re scared because they know their business model is built on risk assessments that rely on people not having resources to sue in response to suffering and death related to denial of care. They know exactly what they’re doing.
