NEW YORK (AP) — At least 19 people, including nine children, died in a fire Sunday at a Bronx apartment building, the deadliest blaze in New York City in more than three decades. Stefan Ringel, a senior adviser to Mayor Eric Adams, confirmed the death toll.

We won't get together and get some damn sprinklers installed in any old apartments because of this. There won't even be any Grenfell moments, nothing like that in this country. Just a few moments to shake our heads at this until the next tragedy shows up to make us forget about this one.

    I didn't even know about that, that's absolutely horrible. This is what I'm worried about, these deaths already happen in the background, they'll just make local news for a week like school shootings.
