Look what happened yesterday!

I doubt the police had any time to pick up hoses, they were too busy chasing away the dickheads who decided to come stare at the fire. This is a cul-de-sac, the only reason you come up here is because you live here. It was nose to tail with rubberneckers and the police had to clear the way for the fire engines. The press were busy climbing fences, trespassing, and generally getting in the way. They didn't give a damn, that's why nobody like them around here I guess. Anyway, all quiet now until the next time...

Wow, I guess it's not "only in America".

Glad to hear everything turned out ok!

Sounds like your police are as dumb as the rest!

Tell people to abandon their homes and don't pick up a hose and help fight the fire.

Yeah because the average housewife is really good at dealing with wildfires when the fire department can't contain them.
