While there are tragedies out there for every person in every walk of life, there are just some reactions that are a little over the top to them.
What happened on the afternoon of Friday, November 15, 2013, was one of them.
On that day, there was a significant fire at a beautiful structure outside Eldorado, the home of Jason Kasair, owner/operator of Beck’s Drugs there in town.
While others were milling around taking photos of firefighters valiantly working the blaze on the two-story home, Disclosure‘s correspondent opted not to press that issue, but to instead ask a property owner if they’d like to make a statement, then clear it before any photos were taken. When the correspondent was told there would be no statement and to please not take any photos on the property, the correspondent left the property to take photos at a distance…and from a public way.
What happened then is the subject of our next Read the Lead, “Reporter assaulted at scene of fire; report made to authorities“:

ELDORADO—The fire that gutted the beautiful home of Beck’s Drugs pharmacy owner Jason Kasair on Friday, November 15, brought out an ugly display on public property in front of the horse stables there…but whether officials will do anything about it remains to be seen.
Disclosure correspondent Lyndi Bowman attended the fire in the early afternoon, following fire and emergency officials onto the property at 8390 U.S. 45 North as others with cameras and equipment were doing, since the property was not marked with any ‘no trespassing’ signs.
In an attempt to speak with homeowners, Bowman identified a woman on the premises who appeared to be speaking to others about it, but advised that she didn’t want to talk to Bowman, so Bowman left the property and moved to an area of public access: the roadway in front of the horse stables across the highway from the burning two-story brick home.
After capturing the fire response on film (the flames were by and large snuffed out by the time Bowman had arrived, but firefighters were putting out hot spots), she observed the woman with whom she spoke on the property “stomping across the yard” toward her.
