They're drawn to the job much like pedophiles are drawn to child care / orphanages.

The exact same thing I was thinking.

That's why people who make their money on services for the homeless support every policy that increases homelessness. Same with drugs and all the other. The difference is that if 100 out of a million fire fighters are doing it the rest are putting out the fires, Nobody in the fake compassion industry wants to end the industry

My friend was telling me about a firefighter he knew. The guy bought an old farmhouse on a beautiful property. The house had everything- asbestos rats Mold etc. a few weeks into his “renovations” it caught fire, his heatgun lit some wallpaper on fire as he was taking it off. Insurance built him a nice beautiful new house.

You don’t take wallpaper off with a heatgun.

100 get caught and arrested, and the rest get protected by their friends in the department.

uhmmmm, heatguns are commonly used to remove wallpaper. It works well.

To start and allow a wallpaper fire with a heatgun is suspicious as fuck however.

it's mostly wildfire people. they get paid to work fires and if there are no fires they don't get paid. more commonly it's their mom's and girlfriends/wives who do it.

Yeah it occurs to me that dudes who make a lot of money fighting these wildfires could be starting them.

Just like cops who let these shitty immigrants in. Its great for business.

Interesting but lacking Bayesian check, need to know how 100 firefighters as a percentage of firefighters compares to all arsonists as a percentage of the population.

Zero police officers are arrested for policing other officers. The police must draw higher quality individuals.

We wouldn't need police in a high-trust, White ethno state.

Fire fighter arson is something we as a nation may have to reckon with in the future.
