Notre Dame did not fail to do controlled burns in highly combustible areas.


Ever been to the Sierras? It is like one big kindling box, just waiting to burn.

Yep. Usual suspects, instead of expressing sympathy & sadness can only spit their usual terrorist rhetoric. It’s beyond boring.

Well, you feel free to post your opinion and I will post mine.
My only opinion is "let's wait for the facts".

Very different from jumping the gun and screaming terrorism.

Only one stirs the pot and riles people up. Using a terrible tragedy for the purpose of inciting hate is just evil. Can we not unite in our sadness of this loss just for a moment?

Possible but not likely. It started roughly 6pm Paris time. Workers are usually long gone by then. Whatever the truth is, we'll probably never know. It still could be some kind of accident without construction being involved.

It's mindboggling how utterly devoid of anything approaching a life these people have.

The left is Christianophobe, they don't care. It is OK to be anti-Christian, everybody knows that,

It's saddening to see this happen.

Trump making silly comments?

I agree!

This building was designed and built before they really had much paper to do the design and no advanced mathematics to calculate loads.

I never said it was terrorism but you would be an idiot to rule it out at this point.
