Remember That Empty Reservoir in L.A.?

Well, it's still empty and the Santa Anas are expected to kick up again next
week.

Bad enough that it was empty the first time around but they've had two weeks
to fill it and not one drop has been sent up there in that time.

The three million gallons LAFD had to work with before the hydrants ran dry
lasted them 17 hours. If they'd had the 117 million gallons in that reservoir
available, a little quick math indicates it would have lasted 663 hours before
running out. That's 28 days.

Oh, and have I mentioned that we only have half the fire department we need?
The National Fire Institute, which sets standards for municipal fire
departments nationwide, says you need 1.8 firefighters for every 1000
residents. Los Angeles has 0.9. Exactly half of what a city this size needs.
We're also 62 fire stations short of what is recommended. Sixty-fucking-two.
But never fear! We've met and *exceeded* our quota of DEI executives, so
that's reassuring.

I swear to god, these 'progressive' Democrats in charge of the place are
actively trying to destroy the city. I mean, if it was your goal to destroy
Los Angeles, what would you do differently?
