Fire tears through Arcata business

drugfront

I bought meth there a few times.

How does the city of Arcata not get sued for letting a structure like this be used?

11 firefighters got pay hikes after receiving fake degrees

Where do they find the time?

If the AVFD showed up and was put into a situation with an illegal grow or any illegal activity then they should have just let it burn!!!! That building was a POS anyway. The business insurance should deny her and if she was doing something illegal (as it appears) she and her business should go away. Maybe Orick.

I don't understand where u all are getting that this store is a drug front and she was operating something illegal---why does everyone assume that a fire in arcata mean illegal activity?

Ha Ha Ha Ha friggen meth heads, stick with growing herb.

I apologize for my unclear wording in the sentence "And publishing her address???". I should have said "Ms. Hernandez's address". Posting an unpleasant comment doesn't rate having your address posted publicly.

Try to keep the patchouli oil away from the heater.

This place is the new METH headquarters in the western states. There has to be immediate action before it explodes even worse! There are hundreds of Mexican Gang, Black Gang, and White Gang members who all cook METH, police are paid off, and the METH is shipped to dozens of states.

That's because they're all trolls. Almost every article ever posted on the Times Standard's website has a bunch of mongoloids going on and on about meth production. Makes no sense. Anyone ever hear of social darwinism? Let 'em cook meth- buy a gun- and when they try to rob you to buy more meth, shoot 'em. Problem solved.

More to the point of the article- the fire department was UNABLE TO DETERMINE the cause of the fire. If it had been drugs they would have known that- it's usually pretty obvious.

I think the real issue here is that place is haunted or cursed or something. I grew up down the street, and I remember Alliance Market. Not only was THAT place creepy as hell (I'd walk past it to Westwood Market if I had to), but every business that's been there since, in about the last 15 years, has gone under within six months to a year of their start date.

No one in their right mind would own a business in that building, knowing it's history...

"The Dude" is tweaken, must be looking for the meth.

Where does this comment have any relevance to this story? While there were several other fire departments called on for assistance with this fire, I feel pretty safe in saying there were no Napa county firefighters present.
And you should reread that article you provided dophead. The issue with the degrees is they were from a non-accredited university. That doesn't make them fake or diminish the study the degree holders put forth to receive them.

#1 - Idiot

#2 - Idiot

#3 - Sue the City of Arcata?- That's us (the taxpayers) you moron! What about the cheap a-hole who owns and makes a profit off of renting space in that decrepit building? The same guy who as a landlord is notorious for taking his tenants deposits without cause when they move out.

The chick who runs that shop wasn't cooking meth or growing weed - that building is so old and on the verge of falling down - it's a wonder it didn't happen years ago. Hopefully the owner will have to tear it down and sell the property or build something nice and new on it.

#'s 2, 4, 5, 7, 12, 15 & 17 - Why do a-holes who are not from here bother to post worthless comment? Seriously people, find something better to do with your lives!

And "The Dude" is only wrong about one thing - my friends used to have a t-shirt shop there. It was very successful and they moved it downtown.

#17 - "Tweaker" - strange comment to make for someone who has chosen to identify themselves with a name like that - freudian slip?

Not sure where you learned math, but there were only 14 posts when you made yours. You're #15. And the location question has been answered here ad nauseum. The location shown under each posters name only shows the location of of that users ISP's servers, not the location of the poster.

Look a little closer bug. There is a post number indicated on the upper right of each post. The T-S must have deleted a few earlier posts.
