ATF needs something to do. They are not allowed near the border.

ATF, Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms. What is the ATF doing in a fire investigation??”

[roachtoasties]

With everything burned to bits, they might not ever know. It could have been a lithium battery inside a product in the middle of that warehouse. What are you going to do? Look through every ounce of ash out of 10, 000 tons of ash?

ATF
, All Total Fools.
Abolish The Feds

Fire fighters use water to extinguish fires so I'm real curious as to know why they turned off the fire suppression system but continue to spray water on

[indyfan]

This must have been the dedicated fingernail polish remover storage facility.

[StraightShooter.]

I wonder if there was ammunition in that distribution center? That would have the ATF there.

[jaycousland]

What does the ATFE have to do with this fire? Do they suspect alcoholic beverages, or firearms were responsible?
Seems like a red flag, for an inappropriate agency to be on scene.

I don't give walmart a penny ever

1:34 Explosive K9s... WTF or should I say ATF.

[praack]

reminds me of the Kmart Warehouse fire of 1982- fire ended up starting with when a pallet fell with spray paint cans- fire overwhelmed the sprinkers- fires spread quick and the ceiling fell then the sprinklers had to be turned off- looks like it will be roughly the same.. boy that was a job we spent days on that one...

[georgewashington]

The suppression system were working, then you had the Fire Pump turned off. Listen to the radio tape.

[philyeary]

I bet...gotta make sure the Ops were sucessful.

[EldredTGlass]

Am curious did the fire start from a tunnel underneath

[michaellalanae]

With arson only one person benefits .this one should be way just follow the money .

[michaelrains]

No arson investagers, this is not ATF business

[billvoorvaart]

why is the atf there? was there alcohol tobacco or fire arm in the building? what bull#!&%

[techmouse.]

For anybody who's curious, ATF stands for The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, _and Explosives_

I guess the explosives part was an after-thought.
