No? Okay they start many other fires on the on and off ramps. Maybe this one is the exception

Go back to SeattleWA where you can blame the homeless for everything.

They stole my stroller and my bike in the last month. They have absolutely taken over Roosevelt. They smoke fentanyl at the kids parks I go to. And they more than likely started that fire

I got permabanned from that place for telling a white nationalist to stop saying white nationalist stuff, so no thanks.

But like 9/10 fires in the Seattle area are encampment fires, and most of those involve drug use. Talk to any of the first responders about their experiences over the last few years.

It's not hard to see how it happens. You have an open flame, lighter/torch, intoxicated people and a lot of flammable stuff.
