End result is there was needless loss of historical buildings when the fire could have been easily caught. Justify it however you want

So, you're in a car accident. You didn't cause the accident. But you are totally to blame because you dared to be on the road that day.

That's how stupid you sound. Just thought I'd clarify.

So you’re saying it was better to let all those buildings burn, expose hundreds of firefighters to unnecessary risk and have a multi million dollar campaign fire sucking up all those resources than it would have been to suppress that fire at 2 acres????

That’s how stupid you sound

They tried to manage a fire in July during red flag conditions. In your analogy, they did, in fact, cause the accident.
