Let this sink in for a minute...
Hundreds and hundreds of small boats pulled by countless pickups and SUVs from across the South are headed for Houston. Almost all of them driven by men.
They're using their own property, sacrificing their own time, spending their own money, and risking their own lives for one reason: to help total strangers in desperate need.
Most of them are by themselves. Most are dressed like the redneck duck hunters and bass fisherman they are. Many are veterans. Most are wearing well-used gimme-hats, t-shirts, and jeans; and there's a preponderance of camo. Most are probably gun owners, and most probably voted for Trump.

These are The Quiet Ones. They don't wear masks and tear down statues. They don't, as a rule, march and demonstrate. And most have probably never been in a Whole Foods.
But they'll spend the next several days wading in cold, dirty water; dodging gators and water moccasins and fire ants; eating whatever meager rations are available; and sleeping wherever they can in dirty, damp clothes. Their reward is the tears and the hugs and the smiles from the terrified people they help. They'll deliver one boatload, and then go back for more.
Respect.
Because the job has to be done and they know nobody else is going to do it - not in time for it to be meaningful. So it might as well be them.
“Written by A Remnant Reader”...
It looks to me like someone has anonymously done a copy/paste
of an article that has appeared elsewhere into “The Remnant Newspaper”
and not given any attribution to the original.
And that’s my people.........what MY family is like. I love them each and every one and I’m so proud of this segment of the population. There’s no one that can even come close to these people. The left in this country that look down on this class of people can eat shyte and die and then go to hell!!!

I found this article. I don’t know if Matt Lowe and the anonymous author are the same person or what happened.
But good catch.

They are racists, what any good Democrat should do is refuse their help. No matter how hard one of these racists try to help you, you must resist.

Thanks for posting.
This is also a week old.
Yes, that’s the one.
Thanks!
No one would ever want to depend upon Antifa or all the Lefturds to be saved during a natural disaster!!! The Real Men and Women are the DEPLORABLES!
Wait til they’re joined by like-minded Westerners, mid-Westerners and Northerners for a march on DC...
the foundation of what makes our people great !
I lived in Houston for almost 50 years but am originally from New Orleans. When Katrina raped New Orleans I hooked up the boat and drove over to New Orleans. I got as far as Laplace but no further. The police would not allow me to go in.
Of course, being from there and knowing my ol’ stomping grounds, I got in through all of the back roads.
I do not know hoe many road in my boat over those days but afterward it was such a satisfying feeling that I shall never forget.
After a natural disaster, government ALWAYS opts for the power grab. A panicked reaction to its fecklessness being exposed.
“After a natural disaster, government ALWAYS opts for the power grab.”
It’s called “ingrained mindlessness!” “We really don’t know nuthin, but we can keep you from doing sumptin!’
BTW, didn’t you just love the monster trucks pulling the stalled military vehicles out of the water!
Wow, watching that video and seeing the line of pickups and boats headed to Houston put a lump in my throat as big as their hearts.
God I love this country and the people who inhabit it
“BTW, didnt you just love the monster trucks pulling the stalled military vehicles out of the water!”
That was so great. Rednecks are the best!!
