    You know better than that. Forrest management, clearing, controlled burns are a necessity and CA tree huggers have put an end to a lot of that. That said, wildfires have been burning in the North American continent for centuries and the climate of Finland or Canada and Colorado have little to do with it. Fire needs fuel and plenty she has. Nature just did what man could not.
    CA fires are especially devastating because of the ever growing population and wind patterns which also have been around for centuries..
    Can't wait for the leftie whining over the "man made" upcoming mudslides which will inevitability follow these fires.

    It’s not funny to the dead, homeless, and relatives of both.

    The leaves tend not to be a big problem. They create a lot of smoke with a small fire. Usually relatively easy to put out. It is the dried up wood and brush which burns so furiously.

    I always figured the number 57 was a Freudian slip. Actually all this just makes me snicker. But I have an odd sense of humor.

    And yet everyone in Finland, including their President, says otherwise.

    At least 1300 human beings burned alive as a result of the willful negligence of government and the crooked politicians motor on collecting their pay offs.

    CA = SNAFU

    And they knew what would happen - mass destruction and mass death.

    There must be a lot of money in wildfires for politicians and their crony capitalists.

    I think it will work but not using rakes but the 3.5 million illegal aliens who own gas powered leaf blowers.

    And in California unlike guns, leaf blowers are protected by the one party rule Democrats in Sacramento.

    Doing the job that gringo Americans refuse to do.

    Because of the large number of undocumented Democrats living in sanctuary cities, California has more leaf blowers than any other state.

    There is,a huge difference between raking and monitoring. But if it had only been a misspoken word that would have been something else this is a whole whackadoodle conversation

    But California's gas tax is so freaking high, using gas powered leaf blowers might be to expensive.

    Maybe rakes are the answers ?

    So how much manpower and equipment would it take to maintain the forests in California to the standards you keep on your land?

    just like a camp fire, it takes the quick burning stuff to get it going, then the rest goes much easier

    many of these places are rich peoples homes, yards fairly well kept, it's just so hot at that point, anything burns

    The leaves are almost incidental. Take a look at the fires.

    That's why the suggestion of raking as a solution for California is absurd.

    the rest of what he said being only slightly less absurd.

    HIs comments on climate change were also particularly idiotic.

    He says a lot of stupid things. However, when he is misquoted, it is no better.
