(20,215 posts)Reporter actually asked them why? It's not their property. Maybe it was just the way the question was framed. It struck me kinda funny. I guess pitching in and doing the right thing, plus next time it might be their house, never occurred to the reporter? Trump's Amurka. Personally, I like the older one with values still alive among our undocumented people.

and, well before any of "us" got here, it was occupied for many thousands of years by some other folks (who did NOT fuck up the environment).

(513 posts)We were able to donate an aid car to them. There was a lottery for who got to drive it down. Of course it went to those who could speak Spanish.

(23,412 posts)Christine McMorrow, Deputy Director of Strategic Communications, told Newsweek in an email: "Currently we have 13 people from the British Columbia Fire Service enroute to the Palisades Fire to shadow Incident Management Team 2, per an interagency MOU between CAL FIRE and the British Columbia Fire Service. Staff are working to coordinate the logistics to bring 90 firefighters from Mexico City to California. They will be assigned when they arrive, possibly in the next day or two."
Mexico's National Civil Protection Council on X wrote: "Tomorrow, the Mexican delegation will leave on a solidarity mission to protect lives and nature. Mexico is with the United States. Solidarity has no borders," according to a translation.

(4,167 posts)Thank you, to Mexico and the fire fighters. You are heroes, may you be safe from harm doing this job and live long prosperous lives after, as we wish to all who are battling the fires and those who live there and are affected, whatever they need, toward recovery. .

(11,613 posts)Interestingly, the Native Americans are known to be the best at fighting forest fires.
We should employ them in large numbers..... !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh? WHAT? there aren't very many around anymore ????????????
I guess the 74 Million MAGAot's past relatives weren't immigrants that came to North America, and killed off 30-60 million Native Americans before stealing their land......

(3,828 posts)Native Americans. In 1776 native American population was 4 million and the white population was moved in and the rest, as they say is history. There was never 40 to 60 million native Americans to be abused.
DENVERPOPS
(11,613 posts)The actual number will never be known.........different noted "authorities," and "historians" give VASTLY different estimates, which in all honesty, due to non-existent record keeping, are not even educated guesses..............
These estimates, are anywhere from 900,000 to 18,000,000 to even 112,000,000.
At any rate, I think that it would be hard for ANYONE, to consider the Native American "population" simply....... "ABUSED"
