The radio report I heard said it was the neighbor's house. Field or house, either way, the neighbor suffered property damage.

I could agree with this IF and ONLY IF it could be guaranteed that by letting this person's property burn, it would not affect any of his/her neighbors. Since this is impossible to guarantee, I cannot accept this as an argument. If a fire like this sparked a wild fire that burned hundreds of thousands of acres, took lives, etc., would you feel the same way?
