Like Trump himself said he could stand on 5th. Avenue and shoot someone and his supporters wouldn't care.

so what, smoke alarms don't work in high rises? So if you bought a house or rented an apartment without some sort of fire safety net you would just go without one? The building passed inspection, that's all that matters.

Yep, I'm blaming the dummies who went without something to alert them. Did the building pass inspection? I believe it did. So if you rent an apartment or buy a house without a CO detector and you get ill or someone dies from CO are you going to sue the landlord or the seller you bought from?

The guy that died, hated Trump and was trying to get out of his long term lease for 2 years now.

Please tell me what the smoke alarm does for people trapped on upper floors of a highrise.

"It passed inspection." So what, if the standards were inadequate because of lobbying from slumlords?

Some even ponder if the Syrian "gas attack" and the fire at the Trump Tower was linked?
Syrian Chemical attack and Trump Tower fire - actions of the deep state?, page 1

Jeffrey Guterman who had posted one of the tweets in question had deleted it but the Wayback Machine had kept a copy.

And there's more infos about the guy who died in the fire and the *cough cough* Daily Stormer *cough cough* view that from a very different point of view.

If it passed inspection it's legal and no law suit would stand since the tenants didn't even seem to care to have something to alert them. Looks like you have a bone to pick with the city of NY. Go protest them to install sprinklers in every tall building that doesn't have one.

If CNN doesn't report on this, it didn't happen.

Believable I must admit, but still. At least let's wait and see if 60% liberal up-tp-40% conservative Fox News says anything about this, then I might believe this story.

Smoke alarms don't put out fires. Sprinklers do.
