More from the Mirror

TORCH FIRE BURNS TRAILER, FAMILY OK

“The residents were thawing a pipe with a torch and caught some insulation on fire,”said Bayside Fire Department acting fire chief Bob Himes. “It spread quickly.” Thehome was collapsing when the first engine arrived. “People need to be extremelycareful with thawing pipes, not to use open-flame torches,” he said.

VICTIMS OF MOBILE HOME FIRE SEEK DONATIONS

A family of six lost everything, including their dog, when a fire burned their trailer to the ground Sunday evening. The trailer was not insured, said Red Cross volunteer Kathy Nussbaum.The fire came dangerously close — but did not touch — a nearby shed, which held a large propane tank. “The paint was melted off the side of the shed but the propane tank did not blow up,” Nussbaum said. “That would have been bad.”

This is what you would call an example of smartness? Yes?
Now these dog killers want you to bail them out.  
Heck, they never should have been in the gene pool in the first place.
If you want to donate your money, give it to someone who will put it to good use, like flying off to Rio de Janero for a fun weekend.

Dude,
You're not going to be elected mayor with talk like that. I can see you saying those things if it were a meth house or something, but a home with small children? That's just cold.

I'd put my 2 cents in for a trip to Rio

Dumb mistake?
Oh yeah, real dumb.
But sometimes stuff happens; terrible stuff from a simple mistake.
There's plenty of doofuses (doofi?) in this town whose misfortune I'd enjoy. These seemed like decent folk, however-- both parents employed, their children attending our schools.
Even as a stire, Perspective,this one did come across as harsh.

"Harsh" is an understament. Maybe a insensitive, uncompassionate, egotistical smuck that could be a bouncer at the Salvation Army is closer to the truth. What would the children involved in this tragic event think if they read this article?
Nice site, but don't be such an a#s.
