Can't be the fault of the arsonists. It must be the developers for building without turning everything into concrete, and the city for not having enough codes, and the homeowners for living there. Get real. Let's stop blaming the rape victim for the rape.
Sadly, arsonists pick this time each year as it is dry, there are winds, and this year inparticular is very bad as drought has killed 3 out of 4 trees in the forests in San Bernardino and Riverside counties.
It was only a matter of time this year. With California virtually broke, this will hurt the economy even more, and more lives will be lost before this is over.
