The only time my neighbor starts a fire in their back yard is when there is a red flag fire warning. We don’t have many of these warnings per year, like one or two. On these days, they have a fire without fail. Yeah, they’re a libertarian. Loves Rogan and Musk. Fucking dangerous, these people. Adolescent contrarians have more functioning logic.

    Missouri isn’t exactly on that level administratively. The warning only says burning is not advised.

    FWIW I plan on calling today if they leave the fire I attended, which they always have in the past.

      I’m not sure if that applies in your jurisdiction and situation. But I’d take a picture. If your neighborhood does burn down, you have proof that it was him.

        Oh I am with you. I document it every time. Thanks for the suggestion though, hope someone else in a similar future situation sees it and remembers.

      God I tried to look it up to see, god Missouri what the hell. “burning discouraged”. Yeah. That stopped maybe 5% of the population, back pats all around. I guess I’d recommend… hosing off your roof…

        And this state has a significant timber industry (white oak). Truly a backwards state run by theocratic fascist idiots.
