Flood Coming

How can anyone complain about the government not helping?
We were given bus rides at no charge (rich or poor).
We went to Houston and were told by many people that we should not be leaving New Orleans.
Our bus had 56 seats and only 23 people would board the bus.
We waited three hours trying to get more people on board.
Lots of people refused to leave and load the buses.
How can anything negative be said about the rescue efforts?
Then later some very stupid people started shooting at the rescuers.
I am saying "Thank God For The Help That Was Sent For Us."
