after media made fun of the preppers.....
My BIL’s daughter sent an email from the daycare - said they don’t have any money, no food, and the banks are closed. They are well away from any flooding - just no power.
My wife said “I can’t cry too much for them, they had a week’s notice to get ready for it”.
And my son said “And Dad is ready for the storm 80 years from now”.
But sadly, I imagine at least 10% of people are in similar circumstances without more than a day or two of food - so maybe 1 million people??
The Nat’l Guard better be armed. And what is bad is that regular folks like my BIL will be a drain on the system, when the help is direly needed where houses are gone, flooded, etc.
And the Romney campaign collecting items.
Food & clothing. Just what Mitt was sending out ... to media & MSNBC derision!
