Hothampton

Not the kind of fire you want to keep you warm.

This strikes WAY TOO CLOSE to HOME!

Come near my property and you are a DEAD MAN despite the nonviolence pledge, fire bug!!


"Arson rampage leaves 2 men dead; 18 blazes within 2 hours strike homes, cars in Northampton neighborhood" by John M. Guilfoil, Globe Correspondent | December 28, 2009

NORTHAMPTON - Two people were killed early yesterday in one of at least 18 fires set during what the state’s top firefighter called the state’s worst day of arson in memory.

Firefighters responded to the first reported fire around 2 a.m. For the next hour and a half, eight serious blazes - four at homes and four in cars - and at least 10 small fires were set within a few square miles. The most serious gutted a house at 17 Fair St., where two people escaped the flames but two others died.

My first thought was some drunk asshole!

The victims were not named pending autopsies, but they were identified as Paul Yeskie and his son, Paul Jr., by neighbors and a fire official with direct knowledge of the investigation, speaking anonymously because he was not authorized to discuss specifics.

The fires, set in houses, cars, and garages, were the latest in a string of suspicious fires that have plagued the Ward 3 neighborhood of Northampton for years, neighbors and officials said yesterday.

Yup, the police have time to BUST POT SMOKERS lighting up and harass college kids, but we have a TRULY DANGEROUS INDIVIDUAL or INDIVIDUALS running around lighting fires and NO ONE CAN FIND THEM!!!

As more and more emergency calls came in, all the fire equipment in Northampton was quickly put to use. A dozen other cities and towns helped extinguish the fires.

Yeah, WE HELP EACH OTHER out here in BUM-F*** RURAL Massachusetts!!

That is why the elite east hates and insults us.

During a press conference in an empty garage bay at Northampton Fire Headquarters, investigators and government officials, including Governor Deval Patrick, who had come from his Richmond home, vowed to find out who set the blazes that resulted in the city’s first fire deaths in more than a decade....

This OFFENDS ME!

Yup, here he is RUSHING in to SCORE POLITICAL POINTS and say WE''LL GET 'EM!

Well, WHERE YOU BEEN for the the LAST FEW YEARS, huh, guv?

Yup, ONLY an ISSUE when SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS, then the LOOTERS come RIDING to the RESCUE!!!

Wealthy Responsible For Global Warming

And contributing to global warming (as it is freezing out here) to boot!!

A task force has been set up, including local police and fire departments, the State Police, the State Department of Fire Services, and the Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives to investigate the fires.

Sigh. Better get something done quick then with all these agencies and manpower involved!

Stephen D. Coan, the top state fire official, said a reward of up to $5,000 was being offered for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the fires....

So far, NOTHING!

**************************

Police Chief Russell P. Sienkiewicz said during the press conference that he had stepped up patrols in the neighborhood following the meeting three weeks ago, and would do so again.

WTF? And it STILL HAPPENED?

Does TYRANNY EVER WORK?

Neighbor Mike Shaughnessy, 60, said his family knew the victims. He described the elder Yeskie as in his 70s and his son as an adult. He said they were very friendly but quiet people. The son would often ride his bicycle past Shaughnessy’s house on his way to work.

Yeah, MOST of us ARE until we get PUSHED to the LIMIT!

Then we become ANGRY and WE HAVE a HISTORY!

Anyone out there know about Shay's Rebellion!?

Turns out the founding fathers -- like the heroic Sam Adams -- only cared for so much revolution and no more.

Coan praised the fire departments for jumping into action. “Our mutual aid system is the lifeline of the fire service in Massachusetts, and last night, like it does many times daily, it provided that needed response to help a community in trouble - a community in need,’’ Coan said.

Now, TAKE THIS BUDGET CUT!

Arson is a particularly difficult crime to solve. “The evidence burns,’’ Patrick said yesterday. Officials are asking that residents come forward with any information they may have on the fires. “We call upon all members of this community to be deputized to bring forward information that will lead to the conviction of the person or persons responsible for this,’’ Coan said.

Hey, IF THEY HAD IT, they would!!

Think we like a firebug running around our communities?

During the press conference, Coan offered tips to prevent arson, including locking the doors and windows on homes and cars, removing debris and discarded furniture from yards, forming neighborhood watch groups, maintaining smoke detectors, and installing outdoor lighting.

I'm sorry, but NONE OF THAT is going to STOP SOMEONE with a can of lighter fluid and some matches.

Several of the fires set yesterday went unnoticed at first - residents didn’t know their homes or cars were lightly burned until they woke up yesterday morning....

Definitely waking up on the wrong side of the bed -- if it and you survived the fire.

And two days later you made the FRONT PAGE of the Boston Globe, NoHo!!

What an honor, huh?


"Deadly arson wave has Northampton wary, vigilant" by Sarah Schweitzer, Globe Staff | December 30, 2009

NORTHAMPTON - After at least 18 blazes erupted in quick succession between 2 a.m. and 3:15 a.m., with one house fire killing a man and his son, this city of nearly 29,000 residents, home of Smith College, has been in a state of high anxiety....

Yup, NO CLUES or ANYTHING yet! State pricks should have kept their mouths shut!

A criminal investigation is ongoing, but clues about how the fires started - and who may have done it - so far have been elusive. Now, officials in Worcester have also reported a string of suspected arsons, the most recent one Sunday night at a school. A spokeswoman for the state fire marshal’s office said there is no indication that the Worcester and Northampton fires are connected, but such assertions have done little to dampen fears that an arsonist could strike at will....

Northampton has been plagued by suspicious fires in the last four years, according to officials....

Now I begin to wonder if this person is WELL-CONNECTED and thus BEING PROTECTED. I mean, it is NOT LIKE that has NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE!!

The cause of the fires has never been determined, said Bob Reckman, a city councilor....

John Van de Graaff, a retired financial analyst who lives down the street from one of the burned homes, and his wife, Marylee Bomboy, a retired college administrator who moved from Manhattan to Northampton after Sept. 11, 2001, are trying, like many, to understand the sort of person who would set the fires.

Is it just me, or are they trying to drag up 9/11 images in the reader's minds?

I'm OFFENDED and I LIVE OUT HERE, readers!

Un-flipping-real!

Come nighttime, they are extra vigilant, listening for barking dogs and keeping an eye out for shadows that don’t belong in their yard....

Yup, LIVING in FEAR every second of EVERY DAY!!!

Above all, that is the AGENDA the Zionist newspaper promotes every single day -- no matter what the issue.

--more--"

Maybe the arsonist moved on, huh?

HOUSTON - Twenty-two arsons have been reported since August in a historic Houston neighborhood called the Heights, known more for its comforting small-town feel in the midst of big-city sprawl than for being the center of criminal activity.

So WHO is ATTACKING BEDROCK America, huh?

Most of the fires have taken place in the middle of the night.... Authorities charged a suspect last month for starting one of the blazes. But he has not been charged with any of the other arsons, and the fires continued even after his arrest.

Then it probably isn't him.

Cops AGAIN just GRABBING the FIRST GUY they see!!!

Residents of the Heights, which sits on one of Houston’s few hills overlooking nearby downtown, have taken some comfort no one has been hurt. But they worry that their property could be next....

As we all do!!

The fires have kept to the Heights, a neighborhood of more than 40,000 residents. Its streets are lined by majestic trees and stately Victorian-styled houses. The locally owned antiques and coffee shops and art galleries give it a laid-back atmosphere....

That's also home, readers!!!

WTF is wrong with AmeriKa, world?
