I’ll bet their auto insurance will fight that claim
Looks like they got more than they bargained for...
Story goes at the big mall the mall cops ran everyone out of the tornado shelter and caused a traffic jam.
God wants our country to turn back to him.
When will we learn the message?
Wow! (((ping))) to 30.
Looks like they found it.
Mike Bettes and his team are very lucky tonight!
Barely missed us (again). Minor damage to house. Lots of debris. More fun in OKC!
Sadly, several deaths reported. We can fix things. We can’t fix lost lives.
I heard an interview with their IDIOT governor on Fox, she’s upset that people we’re out and about and on the roads, at rush hour on a Friday.
She said they should get off of the roads.
Where the hell are they to go? Abandon their cars an run into the middle of a corn field?
She said she told the Highway patrol to go out and warn people that a storm is coming, and close the highway in the area of the storm.,
Thus causing a major traffic jam, trapping people on the road.
So effectively, a typical government official thinks people ars SOO Stupid, in Oklahoma that they forgot what a tornado is, from last week, don’t have the capacity to recognize a threatening storm, check out its direction on their phone, or turn on their radio and make decisions for themselves.
There was a very unusual traffic jam right before the storm hit. The roads wouldn’t have normally been as busy at that time of night, but I think a lot of folks chose to bug out. That only works if you leave well in advance of storms. About 1/2 hour out from getting hit? Too late. Hunker down in place is best bet. I heard there were many accidents, and a lot weren’t caused by the tornado. They were caused by people whipping at very high speeds around others on the highways in a mad attempt to escape or get home in time to beat storms. I was passed by several folks going probably at least 90 MPH.
