They have already arrested one person,
They've arrested two. Are you thinking that John Alfred Rund of Hesperia is a terrorist? Or are you referring to Anthony Joseph Riperti.

Definitely AQ sounding names, don't you think?

Um, a terrorist is ANY person of ANY race or religion that strikes terror in people. Is that not obvious?

Almost every year they have fires and almost every year someone thinks it's real exciting so they go out and set some themselves. I think it stirs up the pyromanics to see all those flames and they just can't help it.

Did you bother to read the post I was responding to? Obviously not.

Thor was talking about AQ.

Also, you should look up a definition of what a terrorist is. I don't think the local fire department running a haunted house fits the real definition, but they fit the one you made up.

I agree. that was my original thought anyway. Just find it funny that people hear terrorist and automaticaly think AQ.

Yes, I did read the one you are responded to. And thats not what I meant, I meant in terrorist acts. I'm just sick of people automatically racial profiling terrorsits.

My parents still arent allowed back, and my cousin got called back from his vacation and is now fighting the fire on the front :frown: my aunt has been doing her best at keeping me updated.... it is very hard being all the way out here when all of my family is dealing with this :bawl:

Inmates Play Major Role in Fire Fight

"LAKE ARROWHEAD, Calif. — They've stolen cars, used drugs and forged checks. When California is burning, they fight fires.

About a quarter of the 14,000 firefighters defending homes and businesses in Southern California from wildfires have been prisoners, officials said. Of the 4,400 inmates trained to battle fires in the state, 3,091 were on the front lines Friday from Lake Arrowhead south to San Diego.

"It's very close to the most we've ever used," said Seth Unger, a spokesman for the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. About 3,000 inmates were used in 2003 during the Cedar Fire north of San Diego."
