You are starting to sound like a Russian propgandist's wet dream.

I hear they are actually paying Russian social media trolls a pretty good wage to sow the same sort of social division you are ostensibly doing for free.

Unless you are on the payroll, comrade.

I make a car without seatbelts and pay to have it pass inspection. So what if people get kiled. It “passed”..

Pretty disturbing that you are ok with this..

Looked at the link...didn't see any celebration by "liberals".

Saw Twitter responses from one guy...and calling it "celebration" is a bit much.

This stinks of Russian troll to me.

Who celebrates a death by burning?

No one! It's the worst death there is!

C'mon, guy... liberals are humans just like you. We all fear death by fire equally, and we all feel sad when it happens. After all, it could happen to any of us when we least expect it.

Don't believe this- the Russians haven't let up, and they won't, for as long as crap like this gets spread around. Don't play into their game.

Using your analogy:

When seat belts became mandatory equipment (January 1, 1968) owners of cars made prior to that date without seat belts were not required to retrofit those cars.

Same with sprinklers, buildings built prior to whenever the requirement for new construction was adopted were not mandated to have them installed.

Like it or not, it matters not to me.

Fire surpressed in your home = Priceless

David Crosby and Jeffrey Guterman making stupid tweets vs. no sprinkler system in a high-rise.


Which one is the more outrageous?

So two people tweeting about the fire means that all liberals are celebrating the deadly fire?

Why don't we address what to do in case of a fire in a high rise building that doesn't have sprinklers?

In a New York Post article on Sunday, tenants were quoted saying that there was no evacuation system in place and they were not notified about the fire: one person only learned about it by seeing the fire trucks outside. A disabled man and his wife were trapped in their apartment. Is there a plan by which tenants are notified in case of an emergency and the disabled and elderly are assisted in case the need to evacuate the building arises?
