Put all the shit relating to Hurricane Harvey in this thread and pray for your Texan Kiwis, especially those like myself that live on the coast and are going to get the full brunt of the storm.
I'm in a different part of town but I have close friends there. Reaching out to them and telling them to get out of Dodge. I'm a bit shaken up at the moment. I'm well aware I've powerlevelled a bit, but I'm only a semi active member these days anyway.
If they are then it's to help for insurance payouts undoubtedly. However I have no clue, I just know what I've heard about the expectation and that people I know in the area are getting out so there's some relief on that part.
Yet the people who are fishing people out of the water are mostly white guys who probably voted for Trump. If they were really so evil and racist they wouldn't be taking expensive boats there to fish black people out of the water.
Her house is flooded, she has no home probably, she has no clue how she's going to feed herself for the forseeable future, she's lost and scared inside a shelter and some bitch with a camera in a microphone comes up and asks, "how are you holding up? you doing ok? Look into the camera, and tell us exactly what you're experiencing right now."
Hurricane victims don't deserve to be harassed and interviewed when they arrive in emergency shelters and finally get the first hot meal they've had in days. We don't have to hear her recount the horrible story of watching her life long home being flooded YESTERDAY and losing everything she's known for her whole life, having to carry her crying child out of waist-high water with no idea of where she's going.
Leave them alone. We don't need to hear from a mother's mouth that her home is gone and she and her child are lost and scared. We know it. They just want more ratings by showing poor victims. Notice how almost everyone they interview are women: for the emotional ploy, they want ratings.
Wow, Rachel Maddow either brought on an idiot or a liar onto her show, next time we'll be wary when the dyke brings on someone to tell lies on cable TV.
