My underdtanding of the situation is this, granted this may be dated as it comes from a former park ranger who may have a bias. Forest fires were much less devastating in years past because rangers would perform controlled burns and clear out underbrush. In recent years (like 15 years ago) animal rights and environmentalists pushed against the practice because it harmed the local animal populations. Therefore many of the preventative measures that were in place simply dont happen near as frequently as did before leaving large amounts of fuel for future fires all along the forest floor.
Tldr; control burns and preventative measures are needed rather than just trying to solve a fire after its already started.

I want to make an infographic or something of the like to better convey my comments. The character limit makes it hard to go into detail along with the fact that i ramble on about tidbits that don't necessarily directly correlate with my original statement but will eventually come full circle. The issue with that tends to be that i tend to take too long to get full circle.

I'd go into detail much more but I don't think people honeslty care so much about pre-ww2 american history.

This harkens back to a time in the US in which a cultural war was waged against "hyphenated" americans. Starting around the 1860's-1950's (Rough Estimate) many of the war hawks after the civil war professed more and more into the belief of manifest destiny, while the american frontier began to close and be entirely claimed by the end of the 1800's. With the closing of the frontier the warhawks looked to imperialism, for an extremely bried anount of time, which culminated into the Spanish American war. The war was fought over Cuba. In the end the United states ceded any claim to the island granting it it's freedom but kept the phillipines. The war saw huge sections of the population being outright against the war, especially the hyphenated americans. Irish-americans were some of the most heavily targeted people by this cultural shift, not including african americans as they were always marginalized.

I've got a few questions.
1. Is this you? (Impersonating someone else is pretty shitty)
2. And if so are you above the age of 13? (One of the main rules of FS)
3. Are you aware of the FS Rules on promotional content?
- "Do not post promotional content/advertisements including links to your website or images with watermarks from other websites."
The above rule is posted in two separate parts of FS' rules page.
I don't mean to be rude and come off as an asshat, even though I probably do most of the time, but i would like for you to be aware of the rules.

Please, i sure didn't have a perfect childhood. Im not going to go into details. I've gone over some of the things that occurred on this site before. My issue isn't necessarily with those who need meds to function its with illicit drugs. Illicit drugs are a crutch and deterrent to bettering yourself. Imo escapism through drug use is counterproductive. Face reality and get stronger.
