Here's a better image of the damage.
Drone Strike Super Scooper.jpg


Here's the Drone that the FBI is examining in it's attempt to find the Drone's operator.
You'd think if it were intentional they'd have used a bit larger and more stout drone than this common DJI.

I think it's highly more likely it was some Social Media reporter wanta-be hoping to get some video to impress his followers.

I'm thinking that drone strike on the super scooper was deliberate.

These smallish "drones" under get small fast (viewing). Hard to estimate height and distance. It could easily be an accident by an inexperienced operator.

That's awesome
We have been a foster family for about a decade for a golden Retriever Rescue. We even fostered a Great Pyrenees once. That was a cool dog


I have a Great Pyrenees now. Most interesting dog I’ve ever had. Isn’t a damn thing coming near the house without her alerting me to it. It’s a coyote hunter, loves a fight.

They’re a ton of work behavior wise but damn good protectors.

Around here they use sheep to clear brush, usually they have one or two of them in the herd for protection, and ya, Coyote hunters. They seem gentle enough, but shy as hell about people.

That’s how I got her. She was abandoned by the sheep herder and her Mom near Parker AZ.

It’s so interesting how the herders manage these dogs. They ween them off the tit at something like four weeks instead of six. Then tend to abandon the females because the herders/shepards can’t/won’t have them spade.

If the males don’t keep up with the herd as they migrate through the valley they’re abandoned too.

They need an alpha owner. If you’re not strong, disciplined and deliberate with them they can be a menace. I had to become a student of the breed and that’s when she became an amazing dog.

Definitely not a breed for everyone if they can’t put the work into them but are cool dogs once you figure them out.

For any peeps affected the problems are just getting started and I feel particularly bad for the displaced with limited options.

Are scumbags still running around starting fires? (shoot on site is my suggestion)

They get a handle on the looting criminals? (shoot on site is my suggestion)

Winds are picking up today and are supposed to be blowing hard like last week by tonight. Tonight is when I figure the fire bugs will come out

My kid is involved with some social media groups. Large ones that I’m sure most of you know the name of. And helps with photographers on events.
The community is pretty sure they know who the guy is. If it’s not him too bad cause he is screwed in The community.

There was 8 started in the Southbay yesterday. They lit one side of harbor park on fire. Few hours later the other side. Homeless. Same Machado lake that Reggie the alligator was in.

I am by no means a genius but I find his interviews entertaining...


Newsome has no context to what he says, buzz words and grand hand gestures entertain the simple minded. Case in point, watch this interview and watch his hand movements and facial expressions, then listen to the interview without looking at the screen. You will see when your not watching but actually listening to what he is saying it's all nonsense and buzz words.

He is proof just how easily people without critical thinking skills can be manipulated

You are correct. He sounds just like Harris. Lots of key words but no substance.
