Thanks for the reality check, Vinny. Apparently there are people on their couches thousands of miles away thinking that the reason for this disaster was that our Fire Dept. showed up to put out a grass fire and there was no water in the hydrants.
There is not a municipal water system in the world that could flow the amount of water that was being demanded during this fire. The water pressure issues were occurring after the fire became massive, not in the beginning. |
This post is disingenuous and you know it, Speedo.
Nobody says an empty reservoir that should have been full caused the fire. Your logic leads to the ridiculous notion that if a fire is big enough, it’s not the water management honcho’s fault. Everybody knew the dangers, even the people partying in Ghana. Every resource should have been at the ready. Apparently, hours went by before orders went out.
Nothing will change as long as the people responsible for mismanaging this disaster are not held accountable.
