Your OP had ONE sentence about the people and compassion. - sm

The rest was all about slams against the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump. That is why you got the responses you did. If your post was primarily about the people, you probably would have received some compassion back.

I, for one, have tons of compassion and understand first hand the horrors of loss from a fire. I will leave it at that, but every new fire brings back horrific memories and deep scars that will NEVER heal. There is a lot than can be done at the bureaucratic level!
