The Los Angeles fires keep on burning
As I write this it seems that the whole of Los Angeles is burning. It’s so hard to wrap your head around the scale of the wild fires engulfing Los Angeles at the moment just by watching the news. I can not imagine the emotional and physical difficulties people are facing. But people are facing it and many will come together and rebuild what has been lost. It’s one of humanities better qualities.
Other amazing qualities of humanity are also being shown, bravery, honesty, love and compassion I’m sure can be seen everywhere you look by all of Los Angeles society, and when this is over we should remember the positives as well as the desolation and loss.
Sadly though, we also see some of the lowest qualities of humanity. Those people who are out on the streets looting and steeling from people and properties at their most venerable. For those people the longest possible prison sentence is the only thing they should be looking forward to.
