Especially living in dense urban areas shouldn’t people be more prepared in the wheels fall off (or anything else falls off for that matter.) It would only be prudent. The cascade of collapse in those areas is very close at all times...and very quick. Enough compassion. If any of them voted LIB, DIM or nobama...best of luck, you fools.
We could probably eat well for 3-4 weeks on just what’s in the cupboards, not to mention other preps. We had a blizzard once when I was a kid where we had no electricity for 3 days or so in cold winter weather. No big deal.
I do feel for all those who have suffered during this storm. But it’s hard to believe people would be out of food after just 3 days.
How often is New York shut down by snow?
Yeah, that's the ticket! And if their house catches fire, the FDNY should first ask who they voted for. Sheesh.
They have never prepared because they see water coming out of pipes every day and plenty of food everywhere in their “dense urban area.” Since it is “dense”, their living space is probably small so where would they store water and food? Someone might see it if they couldn't hide it and they don't want to be thought of as “hoarders”. These people will die soon from lack of water if they don't find good water soon.
The elderly, bless their hearts, they can't get down the stairs of a high rise or medium rise, and I think they are going to be found dead from lack of water. If they live alone and don't have any younger friends to check on them, they don't stand much of a chance.
I hope help comes to all very soon, whether they are black, white, liberal, or conservative. First, they are people and need help. (However, shoot the looter criminals.)
