I notice that, according to this site, the American Red Cross is "Providing assistance." It would be interesting if some AZ Freeper could head down to one of their shelters and see just what sort of assistance is being offered, and whether or not the ARC is playing any 9/11-style (or WWII-style) games with the fire victims, such as charging for food or demanding names, addresses and SSNs so they can "bill" these poor people later.
