[californiadisasters] Officials Announce A Change In Fire Season

Officials Announce A Change In Fire Season

Story Created: Nov 28, 2010 at 6:37 PM PST

Story Updated: Nov 28, 2010 at 9:17 PM PST

Santa Barbara - As fall turns to winter, the Santa Barbara County Fire Department will begin the transition Monday of lowering the fire danger risk and fewer burning restrictions.

Beginning at 8 a.m., the county Fire Department will follow other local agencies by stepping down from a high-fire-season preparedness level to a lower one.

<SNIP>

The U.S. Forest Service also reduced fire restrictions in the Los Padres National Forest. Campfires and charcoal barbecues are once again allowed in all areas of the forest, and prohibitions on smoking and target shooting were also lifted. Cal Fire, the fire agency for San Luis Obispo County, transitioned to low fire season back on November 8th.

Re: [californiadisasters] I Didn't Know There Was An Old Fire Suspect In Custody

A lynching would merely be another crime to follow those committed by Mr. Fowler.

Vigilantism is anarchy and anarchy is disorder and disorder is antithetical to the proper functioning of civilization.

Mr. Fowler needs to die and he needs to die yesterday and it needs to be done in a public setting in a solemn ceremony either in one of the yards of his prison or in front of the courthouse of his trial or perhaps even at the scene of his 2003 crime.
