Gatlinburg fires

Looks like the gentleman they were looking for was just a wellness check:

But the facebook links said he was a terrorist! Probably Obama's cousin!

 

Kind of like what was done to Israel.

I wish someone would beat the **** out of people that say these things.

 

apparently reopening to the general public at 7 am friday

 

"Liberal elitists" working at Express Oil Change now?? Alabamians calling Tennesseeans cousin humpin' Pall Mall smokin' anything is a hoot...

 

So is he actually a suspect?

 

I don't think so, but people sure thought he was at one time.

 

Notice how the fake news about him being the arsonist materialized.

 

The whole article reads like something off the Onion... Surprised the article didn't refer to him as "Area Man"....

 

Two teenagers charged.

 

Welp. Their lives are over.

 

I couldn't imagine living with that on my head

 

If someone starts a fire in the middle of the woods how can anyone reliably determine who was responsible?

 

Kids probably bragged about it and got turned in.

 

Knowing a lot of kids these days, they probably put the video of themselves doing it on Snapchat and bragged how many followers they got from it.

 

I guess I'm in a minority here, but what of it? If these kids started the fires that killed these people and they can't be held responsible because they are minors, then their parents should be held responsible. Raising your kids is a responsibility that many parents neglect.

 

For the record I'm for burning them and their parents alive if convicted.

 

I'd be curious as to the evidence and alleged circumstances.
