Moved out of Fort Collins right as the High Park fire was getting really bad and headed out to Los Alamos to live with the inlaws.

Mom's house in Glacierview burned to the ground last week.

Grandma's condo in C.Spgs. is next, apparently.

And you know what? fark Colorado. Let it burn. Colorado Springs plays host to the most evil and diabolical "Christian" organizations imaginable, and the voters of Fort Collins cost me my business, bankrupted my wife and I, drove us homeless and insane, and WORST OF ALL condemned my terminally ill customers and clients to lives rich with suffering with little hope of relief.

As far as I'm concerned, this is Divine Wrath, and they can eat it by the motherfarking spoonful. Whole state is full of two-faced fakes who only care about compassion and charity when they can get something out of it.

HEY! Way to stereotype incorrectly. How do you think the free liberal Colorado Springs Independent survives? (keep in mind they were surviving before the medical marijuana ad bonanza). CO is a heterogeneous mix of people, it's not all fundies here.

Phillip Ondiz: On channel 9 they just mentioned that the population of Colo Spgs is nearly 100,000, 32,000 of which are currently evacuated. Did I hear that right?

last time I checked we were around 400,000 odd.

I was on Rampart Range Road and saw the Fire basically when it started. I have video and pictures and believe I know who started the fire. I have left 4 messages with the tip line and have not received a call back. The perpetraitors are probably in another state by now and as time passes crucial evidence is being lost! Somebody needs to contact me asap. I may go to the Television stations tomorrow. What a shame!

Lol, does it matter who/what started it? You have that much drought with that much fuel it's going to find an ignition source be it lightning strike, camper, cigarette butt, car exhaust, bullet ricocheting off a rock, lawn mower blade striking a rock, or someone with a lighter who likes seeing things burn. This fire started decades ago.

THIS!

This fire started because people are fundamentally afraid of large fires.

If I apologize, do you think he'll send rain?

Had one. It was great. I was helping hundreds of people and it was deeply rewarding. I've never felt so close to God in my entire life. Then it was ripped away from me, and I was forced to let down those who depended on me. I spent the next two months with the barrel of a gun in my mouth.

Uglybarnacle:

Please Die in a fire. You call this wrath? There are thousands of innocent people out there watching as everything they have is burning to the ground and you call it retribution? What the flying fark is wrong with you?

Myself and my family are among those who have watched everything we have burn down in these fires, bucko. Colorado robbed my of my ability to dole out compassion and charity, so it now gets none of my pity.

I still have most of my family out there, right in the path of two separate fires.

Most of my old clients are in the paths of those fires as well.

And if I could stand in the middle of one of those fires and let it consume me, as you suggest, I would. Because feckless pieces of shiat have broken my soul and robbed me of my ability to care for the needy.

So fark you. Fiery death is mercy when compared to having to associate with assholes like you.

thisisyourbrainonFark: Sorry for your loss, but using a bit of a broad brush, aren't you?

Sorry man, still pissed and hurting. Good luck.

416,000. not quite.

City of 100,000 CS Metro 416,000. Try harder.

Screw you too, nouchedozzle! Stereotype much? Glad you falied and went bankrupt and left, ya gobknobbler! EABOD and Die!

He probably didn't fail.. the grower I worked for in Longmont was shut down too. People put up to half a million into their outfits being certified, compliant and up to code with all the hoops the city put in place, and the town pulled the rug out from everyone. I'm not defending the douchocity of his wishing Colorado burns.. but he was probably screwed by Longmont like all the other Dispensaries.

falcon176: in before "this is Obama's Katrina" or did the right wing drop that talking point


THIS IS AN OBAMA VERSION OF A BUSH F*CKUP THAT WAS SO ENORMOUS IT'S BECOME A MEME!

Eatin' Queer Fetuses for Jesus: He's already been through serious shiat and now his mom's house has burned down. I saw people with his anger storm out of meetings at city hall in Colorado Springs practically in tears of rage - people that had invested their entire life savings, and lives, into a business only to have it taken away by brainwashed nimby voters and greedy bureaucrats. Let him get it off his chest.

Wow, I wasn't actually expecting anyone in this thread to get it...but you do.

Thanks, man. Kinda choked up again.

Forrest tend to renew themselves, this is one of those times.

Stay safe, get the hell out before they tell you kids.

On one hand, I'm all for dispensaries. And having the rug pulled out from under you, which has happened in a number of places, sucks.

On the other hand, most of your customers can't possibly be actually sick people, can they? I'm curious about this.

You'd be surprised how many people have legitimate chronic pain.

melkson: Eatin' Queer Fetuses for Jesus: melkson: They've evacuated to the north and west of me, i'm 4 blocks from the mandatory areas. Got my stuff packed, but there is no way i'd be able to move my pets :(
I don't think I want to go without them.

Why can't you move your pets? I'm in Douglas County if you need help. Email in profile.

Well, we have 4 lizards, 2 tanks of feeder mice, and an elderly ferret. 2 of the lizards are 4+ feet long, one bites (nile monitor). I guess we could put the big ones in pillowcases, and move the smaller 2 in a 10gal tank. Mice are just lizard food, but the ferret Spot would need special care. Thank you very much for the offer, and if need arises I may contact ya.

You'd be willing to risk your life for four lizards and a ferret? I have two cats, and, while I love them, if it were a question of me or them, well, I can get more cats.

Stay safe and get out.

sumpinaintright: Not saying it was arson, but it's about the only thing it could have been.


Campers. Smokers. Power lines. Car fire. House fire. Elk that have learned to use flint and steel. Meteorite. Kids with matches. Kids with a magnifying glass. Spontaneous human combustion. Fireworks. Spontaneous squirrel combustion. Homemade rocket. Embers from a chimney. An angry bear with a gas can, a lighter, and a political cause. Powertool malfunction. ATV fire. Drunk Texans blowing-off steam. Dragging trailer chains making sparks. Gods fighting. Fire ants finally living up to the hype. Badgers rioting over the stagnation of the middle-class. An arsonist who changed his mind, but then tripped and started the fire by accident. I could go on.
