To: I still care

"A lot of people like to talk about "trailer trash". Yes, those people are around, but living in FL where people are disabled, or on fixed income - well, a mobile is all they can afford.

I have quite a few good friends who live in fairly nice trailer parks. They would give their right arm to be able to move to a regular house, but there is no way. They do the best they can.

"

Yup, and some of them have relatives who are posting on Free Republic. I still haven't been able to contact my Sister-in-Law in Cape Coral. I'm certain she and her husband are OK, but there's no way to get through right now. I'm sure she'll call in when she can.

I say Phooey! on all the doomsayers and hard-nosed people who don't seem to care at all about the disaster these folks are facing. Everything has to be political with them, and they're even wrong about the politics.

This happens every time there is a disaster. Some Freepers just can't help but make jokes or denigrate the people who have gone through it. I do hope those people are on the other end of the stick one day.

I read your frustration. Might I add one thought? Some folks handle stress, disaster with humor. That is their way to vent what is on their mind.

It is a thought, no proof.
