Hey, bennie, you clueless, stupid, fucking asshole. WHO are you going to sanction for the choking smoke and haze in my city? Half of my state is on fire. Multiple, major fires, one so large it is roughly the size of Denver. That is just ONE of the fires. Four firefighters have died, as well as countless wildlife and stock. We are in extreme drought. Everything is tinder. So get your ignorant ass over here, and tell us how we should have managed things better. I would pay good money to see you telling our ranchers and farmers, and all the involved agencies, that they do not know what they are doing. That could be fun.

Stupidity and arrogance like that should be painful.
