Sign on San Diego is reporting that Blackwater is donating shelter supplies for those affected by the wildfire residents in Barrett Junction.
A tent city is set to spring from the ashes near Barrett Junction as wildfire-weary residents in the rugged community near the Mexico border have been told they will be without water and electricity for another 10 days. Trucks carrying makeshift quarters for up to 200 people, with tents, cots, toilets, showers, power generators, laundry facilities and a community room with TV, are scheduled to arrive today. The tent city, a donation from the controversial private-military company Blackwater Worldwide (formerly USA), is expected to be constructed tomorrow with equipment and materials coming from the firm's North Carolina headquarters.
Not that this would have anything to do with them wanting to build in the area even though there's a bunch of protesters and people who are concerned about a company currently embroiled in lawsuits and questions about their actions in Iraq.
But hey, I'll take it. Thanks for the generator and the TV.
