Well Mr. Isham, I think some time in the county jail would suffice if you can't afford your fine ( 60 day min. )

What part of BURN BAN do you not understand?!?! This person should be fined a MINIMUM of $1,000 for EVERY acre that was burned. He is no exception to the rule! I feel really bad for the men and women who have to suit up in fire gear in these triple digit temps to put out fires that never should have been started to begin with!!!!

Isnt E Sawmill close to the EE Fire Dept????? I know Landmark has it posted on their outside sign, I'm sure EE does too. I also think he should be paying back the cost for time and supplies rendered.

I've driven thru that area a lot lately. There are enough signs posted that Ray Charles could see them. This dude is a reject. Trying to blame someone else. Dude, its hot, its dry, no rain for a long ass time, its been on the TV for the last month. You are not a hermit, youre just stupid.

I'm with charlie, $1,100 is too light for such stupidity. The IQ is likely the result of sum inbreeding

This knuckle-dragging neandertal didn't know about the burn ban? I guess all the meth killed his last remaining brain cells.
