When the brush fires hit southern california every year, is it always the work of arsonists?

I mean every year it happens! I was born and raised there, and remember riding my bike up into the Santa Monica mountains when i was a kid, to see the firefighters and the smoke and flames. Just last night, a new wildfire hit the Santa Barbara area, in the town of Montecito, destroying at least 70 homes. Those Santa Ana winds are notorious for help fan the flames, but isn't it really the work of arsonist(s) in this case, usually? What's everyone think?

I know where you're coming from! I'm from Santa Barbara and just this year there have been 3 different fires! (HORRIBLE!!)


As easy as it is to put the blame on arsonists, sometimes mother earth plays a huge roll. I'm not saying that there aren't evil people out there who intentionally start fires, but living in an area with sooo much vegetation, it's almost hard for fires not to start. Yup, as lovely as Southern Cali is, we always have that worry in the back of our minds that a wild fire might break out any moment... wether it be winter, spring, summer, or fall. When the brush fires hit southern california every year, is it always the work of arsonists?
Could their homes be in foreclosure? Maybe they set the fires to collect insurance instead of losing it all due to foreclosure. In this economy, how many people can afford homes of that size in that location? Not everyone has Oprah's income.
It's just God punishing California for being dirty heathens.
