    Nobody is arguing that the building should remain unsafe. We’re pointing out that the alternative for those who stayed there would likely have been freezing to death sleeping outside. The place didn’t burn down obviously, so it was definitely the right call to have them sleep in the church during the cold snap.

      They lucked out this time. That’s a lousy basis on which to judge building codes. Every building that burned down and killed dozens in the process spent many days not burning down first.
