    I agree with you in principle. But I don’t think this tweet guy is saying everyone else’s house should be ignored in favor of his, instead it was more like “can I hire someone quickly to prevent damage to me and my neighbors”. I know people can make a lot of snap judgments about others on race, class, gender etc. I just don’t think it’s fair or just to do that.

      Anyone capable and willing to fight fires in the Los Angeles area should be working with the proper authorities to maximize their efforts. This guy is asking for people to not do that and to benefit him instead.

        Yeah, if I was in the area I’d help out and go with how the professionals and authorities are triaging the area. Triaging is super important in such situations.
