No, I want to know when you were last in California and what your views of the place were.


Oh so facts have no place in your fantasy. Well done you.

BTW - never been there, Got as far as Hawaii and turned around. Wink


Good to know, Lee, good to know.

So when you talk about piping water 1000km to fight a fire, facts have no place in your fantasy, is it?

Never been there, never will.

So quote me saying that. You should have some experience by now. You do know they do pipe water from dams?

So I did a search. This seems to be the one you are talking about.

After all, you both push the lie that global warming isn't happening/doesn't matter/isn't anything to worry about, when in actual fact, it's the cause of all these so-called random, once-in-a-lifetime disasters.


And you have proof? Go for it. Wink

Melanias purse wrote on Jul 12th, 2025 at 10:12pm:
Increased rainfall and floods, you see, are the result of the earth heating up, precipitating condensation, forming rain clouds and causing, you know, torrential rain.



And where is this increased rainfall? Show the history and prove it. Same with floods, of course with more people, more impervious surfaces there may be increased flooding, but that doesn't make it climate change. Wink

Melanias purse wrote on Jul 12th, 2025 at 10:12pm:
The earth heating up is the result of increased CO2 emissions, which have increased average global temperatures by at least 0.2 percent each decade since the 1970s.



Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof. Please show CO2 as causation. Wink

And don't forget increasing CO2 levels have a reducing effect on temperature.

Melanias purse wrote on Jul 12th, 2025 at 10:12pm:
It is happening, and these are the results. California wildfires in Winter, Texan floods in Summer, increasingly devastating hurricanes during the cyclone seasons. After all, with population increasing, housing density expanding and CO2 levels through the roof, natural disasters caused by global warming are happening all over the world, right before our eyes.



California has a history of winter fires, try blaming the drying Santa Ana winds.

"Data from California wildfires since 1984 shows that only four major fires have occurred in the winter months, with the majority of large-scale blazes sparking in summer. Before this year’s Palisades and Eaton fires, the largest January wildfire in California history was the 2001 Viejas Fire, which burned over 17 square miles."

I know you don't like Fox, but I am sure if you searched your favourite news site they would have something. Wink

So do summer floods in Texas include May? It certainly ain't winter. Try 1972 South Central Texas Flood.

https://repository.library.noaa.gov/view/noaa/7006

"Increasingly devastating cyclones"? Is that what you want to go with? Not perhaps increased intensity cyclones? Cyclone devastation is a population, property ownership problem. The more people, the more they own ... the greater the devastation. Wink

What's more, he's spent the past ten years telling the kinds of lies that spook Americans out of federally-funded disaster-prevention projects and is planning to close FEMA down altogether.


You mean like the Asheville floods, where the locals said they didn't want or need flood mitigation, in an area prone to flooding? Roll Eyes

Melanias purse wrote on Jul 12th, 2025 at 10:12pm:
Locally based officials in Texan flood-prone areas rejected FEMA's offer of an early warning system in 2021.



So now locally based politicians are a euphemism for Presidential? Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin

Melanias purse wrote on Jul 12th, 2025 at 10:12pm:
When your DL visited LA in the aftermath of the California fires, he blamed the governor, Gavin "New Scum".


You mean California's not doing enough burn control was Trump's fault? Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin

"Melanias purse wrote on Jul 12th, 2025 at 10:12pm:
He put the cause of the unprecedented Winter fires down to a protected species of endangered fish, 4000 miles away from the fires in remote Northern California.



Did he? The cause of the fire? Or merely the lack of water to fight the fires? You know the pulling down of dams"

Now, If you read carefully I didn't say the Klamath dams were the reason. In fact what I wrote said "By taking down these outdated dams, we are giving salmon and other species a chance to thrive once again while also restoring an essential lifeline for tribal communities who have long depended on the health of the river,” said Newsom."

https://missoulacurrent.com/california-dam-removal/

Most of California is desert like if not actual desert. It often suffers water shortages with an increasing population. But they don't need dams in a hostile environment? "

But there are other California dams that have been removed much closer to LA. One was San Clemente Dam which was used in Monterey County.

Under Governor Gavin Newsom, California has sought to transform its massive prison system into a Nordic-style rehabilitation program. Newsom has placed a moratorium on all executions, transferred condemned prisoners to facilities across the state, dismantled San Quentin State Prison’s death row, and turned the notorious prison into a therapeutic center, with art, classrooms, a café, and podcast studios.

As part of this transformation, the Newsom administration approved a $189 million contract to provide new digital tablets—generic, flat-screen devices in a plastic shell—to every inmate in the state prison system, at “no cost” to offenders. The administration heralded the effort to replace inmates’ old tablets—which were piloted in 2018 and given to nearly all prisoners by 2023—as a step toward “digital equity” for “justice impacted” individuals, who could, in theory, use the devices to contact their families, consume “educational” content, and “learn new technology.”

In reality, taxpayer-funded tablets have also been used for more lurid endeavors. In this exclusive City Journal investigation, we contacted dozens of death-row inmates, who told us that prisoners in the state system use such devices to watch pornography and have explicit sexual conversations. Some prisoners, according to a former high-ranking California corrections official, use their tablets to groom minors. Though the state has claimed to regulate explicit content, the inmates told us that users can easily evade detection.

When reached for comment, the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation said the tablets were “tightly controlled education tools” that provided inmates with “access to the Bible, education, and reentry resources that actually reduce crime.”

But inmates told us a different story. For some, the devices have become personal sex machines. In the words of one inmate, California’s death row is populated with desperately “horny” criminals who see the tablets as a way to satisfy their basest fantasies and desires—all thanks to the California taxpayer.

And also built a bullet rail to nowhere. Got rid of in state oil extraction and refining and replaced it with imports, apparently imported oil products have less CO2. One of the highest energy prices in the mainland states. Net migration. He is so good Grin Grin Grin Grin
