If a Drone Jammer is readily available, why doesn't the fire department
have one? Or borrow one from the nearest SWAT team. Isn't that like the
first thing they do at a potential bomb site, is setup a jammer to
prevent remote detonation? Or have I just been watching too many police
shows.

Surprising people would mess with firefighters.
I remember seeing a VW beetle someone parked in front of a fire
hydrant, and there was a house fire. The firefighters bashed out
windows on both sides and ran a firehose through his car. No
doubt they could have picked it up and moved it, or called police
to have it towed, but this was quicker and hopefully taught him a
lesson.

The particular fires are in southern BC along the US/Canada border
from Osoyoos over to Rock Creek/Kettle Valley area.
We've got a temporary service in place relayed from a neighboring
WISP now. It's not a lot, but it's something. Another community
north of there is completely in the dark due to the fires to the
south... no phone lines, no power, not even cell. Logistically,
there's nothing we can do for this community right now either.
Reports indicate the power company is setting up a generator.
30 homes were lost in Rock Creek so far, and then there's an
effin' idiot flying a drone which has caused the air support for
the fire to be grounded yesterday. Now *THERE* is someone I hope
the black suits find...

We had a bad situation this week where wildfire took out our
upstream's fiber in one valley which we relay wirelessly over
to another valley. We had calls from people angry that we
weren't driving through the roadblocks to fix it.

Normally these comics are just humor. The 'complain to
your local congressman' is what got me to send it to this
group.
