"Funding agencies doesn't make them more effective."

Whatever you want to believe, man. Also, who's blaming firefighters? When did we start talking about firefighters instead of agency funding?

Their budget is over 800 million dollars. You don't think they're funded? That 2% was enough to Cripple them? If that 2% was enough to stop forest fires how come they were forest fires last year when they had it?

As for who's blaming firefighters. You are. This post is. That's the whole point of these talking points. To blame firefighters and the LA fire department for this forest fire. Because if fire fighters are the problem then big polluters aren't. Did you not get that? You're saying that the current firefighters failed and only more firefighters would have stopped it. Which is a Bonkers mindset but that's the logic you're promoting here.
