MFH is not required or compelled to answer you. When someone posts something out of the sincerity of their heart from their best friend who is a trained professional involved in the SAR, and then someone comes along and to their face calls it BS...the options are either to get back in their face or ignore the insult and try to move on.

We have officials (Governors of two states and Mayors) saying things like this is America's tsunami. What pictures does that conjure up since nearly 300,000 died in a tsunami recently?

We have officials in localities talking about hundreds killed in their own localities when the pictures from those localities look just like what we see in dozens of localities. The extrapolation from these statements and reports is clear. Potentially thousands have died.

Now, from MFH, we get an eyewitness account that tends to corroborate that. Not to confirm it...just an individual report from the ground. That is all this is...but to those watching closely...it is a data point that tends to line up with the potentially horrific reality that many of us are already considering.

That's all this is. No need to get angry, insulting, or upset over it IMHO. But that's just my opinion on the matter.

BTW, thank you sincerely for your service to our Republic from my entire family here in Idah.

The difference was the huge amount of footage we had from many sources from Third World countries. And America has far more news maggots with aircraft and money to buy stories than what could be found during the tsunnami blowout.

Actually, I only see reports from a few officials like this. And they're mostly saying they're not doing anything to count the dead, despite the claims on this thread of thousands known to be dead.

Potentially thousands have died.

But that is the topic, isn't it? Not 'potentially'. But thousands actually dead as this thread originally stated as a matter of fact. It's the reason for this behemoth thread which wouldn't have gotten past 100 posts unless it had claimed thousands dead and used such graphic language.

Now, from MFH, we get an eyewitness account that tends to corroborate that. Not to confirm it...just an individual report from the ground.

What we got was a hearsay account from an anonymous poster for which there should be many corroborating accounts but for which there are none after many hours.
