When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them.

​@@hollydurden The fhuck does that mean??

"I pray for the thunder and rain to quietly pass me by-a- ye"

If not, will the price of beef drop?

If they wasn't saved. Beef would go up.

We have been but with 65mph sustained winds shifting directions nothing would stop it. Sad days here in the Lonestar state.

They've had dozers and maintainers out trying to cut fire lines. The terrain isn't helping any. Lots of canyons and ravines with tall, thick grass. With the winds blowing like they have been, you can't hardly keep up with it on a brush truck. Then there's the issue of water supply. It's hard to get tankers close enough to the fire line in that kind of terrain. By the time they drive out to the staging area for water, what headway they've made has been lost cause of the high winds. Most, if not all of those departments, are volunteer from small towns. Given the circumstances they've done a hell of a job!

It jumped a highway so we HOPE it will curtail this fire but we are supposed to get high winds again this weekend.

The first 2 days it was to windy for air drops.

Not this 😮

Controlled fires

They're not farmers. They're ranchers and don't have tillage implements.

Don’t have the equipment nor they had no time. It was moving way too fast.

Cows are safely in an agricultural field. Probably what most ranchers did because they are used to the prairie burning.

It’s not farmland 😮

Prairie land. Does that 👀 like farmland? Do you live in a city or a cave?

WHACKY!

Todd you need to take your medication

@@krisbaker9427 I guess he took Fridays off and it shows.

@@krisbaker9427 thank you

1+1=2 A tactic to draw the national guard away from the border.... 🤔

Ther is no military base in the area.

Our Governor called in EVERYBODY! He declared a disaster. It's Biden that doesn't give a crap.

Issues with wind. It will be a problem in a couple days as well.

Coming Friday.

Yes. The wind died down and they brought in helicopters. Much needed relief.

There’s nothing suspicious about the amount of wildfires that are happening currently. It’s pretty common and natural when the conditions are right and in the kinda land like Texas, flat and grassy. Texas and much of the southern states and east coast have been experiencing unseasonably warm temperatures and Texas is in a drought. All that was needed to spark these wildfires in Texas was some strong gusty winds which occurred and now this is the result. This isn’t a terrorist attack or any foul play this is just nature.

You can even see in the video all of the dry dead grass and plants ahead of the burned fire grass. Very easily for wild fires to spark and spread from that with strong winds due to the drought and unseasonably warm temperatures.

Love seeing people that come on here speculating how FIVE fires is some crazy thing, absolutely ridiculous to say that this is some terrorist act by the government, fires are a part of life

Hard to say. Incredible winds and very dry conditions. Static electricity, dropped cigarette? This is the worst month for fires here in Texas. It was terrible. 😢

look up Directed Energy Weapons..they did that in Lahaina. then you're getting warm

@@andybreuker4759 Lahaina was caused by a downed powerline

What difference does it make ? You are going to believe whatever obvious intentional lies. the Fox Propaganda Network personalities tell.

@@andybreuker4759 Don’t state your own made up opinion as if it’s factual information.

Land management? lol My goodness. Tell us genius, just how you land management for wildfires. You'd literally have to turn it into desert sand, devoid of any vegetation. Whats scary is you get to vote.

Screw you. He has done more than ANY democrat!

You can't even spell. Get lost pumpkin.

I do not believe Abott can control the weather. It’s dry and windy. Not much anyone can do about that. A lot of People lost everything I do not believe we need to bring in politicians for this. Just be happy with what’s left

The cost to send them on busses is much much much cheaper than paying for them to stay in Texas.

😅

Get back on your medication.

Oh anouther FOS lib trying to bait a comment section war

I mean I am all about FJB but that is a stretch. This is an annual phenomenon.

@@dusty6570 he doesn't actually believe that, it's just a lib trying to make us look bad

Karma. The land belongs to the native indigenous peoples Separating kids from their parents at the border You had to know this was going to make you enemies of God and footstool to those who are not Christian hypocrites, liars, cheats, grifters, the greedy. Peacemakers will inherit the Earth, not Christian hypocrites Indigenous people will have their ancestral homeland back. They know how to care for the Earth. They live in harmony with the Earth and humanity

Idiot troll

Half a million acres is too much to contain with county and state funds.

​@@robertreznik9330Biden hates Texas so no federal aid....

​@@OrtusMallum2075He hasn't even acknowledged this fire. Now if 1 hair on an illegal aliens head gets singed he might think about it. Our Governor will take care of us. Screw Biden.

When a fire is over a million acres water tankers aren’t gonna do shit
