Colorado Springs is burning. My thoughts, prayers, & ...

damn

*cries*

I *know* intimately where it's burning. My inlaws lived there until 4 years ago exactly where is burning right now. My best friend used to live there until March. Exactly where it is burning

EXACTLY where it is burning. Words cannot describe the horror of these pictures.

I'm not going to try & put a political spin on this, but I have to for a minute. I don't really care what politics you follow, if you're Republican or Democrat or if you vote for little green Martians. But the fact that we cannot call up our National Guard because they're stationed all over the world rather than being HERE, where WE U.S. CITIZENS NEED THEM, then this is what happens. Plus ColoSpgs is so anti-tax, they don't have the resources to fight an inferno of this magnitude.

Those poor people. *cries real tears*
