Who’s responsible? The fire department obviously will have committed manslaughter. But also clearly the nursing home management has some responsibility here because they failed to evacuate after an evacuation was ordered.
- vkou 5y ago> Who’s responsible? The fire department obviously will have committed manslaughter. Which is why prescribed burns won't happen. Nobody wants the liability.
- TigeriusKirk 5y agoMake them liable for fires in poorly maintained forests and watch the prescribed burns happen very quickly.

- jdavis703 5y agoWho is “them?” The taxpayers? I don’t see anyone who’s not in the WUI going for this.
- jefftk 5y ago> The fire department obviously will have committed manslaughter. This isn't obvious, and it's not the only way to set up policy here. If you have an area with enormous built-up fuel, you could choose to treat it as something that is going to burn at some point instead of trying to set up incentives so that no one sets it off.
