“‘Where are they?’ That was the only thing I was thinking is’ where are they?’ It just kept growing,” Cindi Johnson said.

With nothing but praise for Colorado’s “High Park” fire fighters, there remain questions regarding the fire’s origins and terrible emergency response. During this June drought, Colorado was on wildfire alert. It was a clear morning with rich blue sky (an unusual lack of chemtrails) and the early wind was calm – perfect visibility for 10′s of miles. Later the authorities would say that the conflagration started from a smoldering tree struck by lightning on Wednesday as they received official notification at 5:55 a.m. on Saturday morning when the fire was still quite small.
- Human life and many millions in property damage could have been spared with a timely air drop.
- Whipping wind makes fire a devil to fight and it seems that the system waited several HOURS for the devil to arrive.
- Why would 9News retract the most revealing quote from the article below?
- How could this fire have smoldered for days without detection?
- If TPTB had not waited, there would be NO story! Who benefits from a spectacular, blazing actor arriving unannounced in high definition. If you’re in media, fire is a great bargain as global media generated dollars soon dwarf the cost of the fire. And classifying it as Type 1 brings in Federal control.
- Agenda 21 implemented with a match?
- Future taxes and insurance increases are insured.
- Authorities, authorities, and authorities thrive.
- Wouldn’t it be a slam dunk to use drones appropriately for heat detection with GPS coordinated, pilotless air drops?

What they witnessed Saturday is devastating for the Johnsons, who watched the fire grow from a puff of smoke into an inferno.
