"Sorry,Grandmother of hoosierham...I know that the flood waters are up to your nose but we have no room in the boat.You see,we have Fido,Fluffy,Killer,Lady and four parakeet cages onboard.There may be room on the next rescue boat that comes along"
In New Orleans the “people in charge” left 100 buses sit unused and then flooded,rather than using those buses to move out thousands of people.Those authorities illegally confiscated guns from people protecting their non-flooded homes.Other police abandoned their duty and fled in stolen vehicles with looted merchandise.Not to mention that evacuation of the areas most likely to be flooded should have begun much sooner.
The authorities chose not to prosecute medical workers who euthanized old and sick who should have been moved from nursing homes days earlier.
That is how political hacks and union thugs handle an emergency.
Nevertheless,people with pets or sick or infirm relatives really ought to have plans and means in hand to move early in an emergency.Depending on the government to save you from everything is foolish.
Of course we could just have the police shoot all the dogs ,stomp the cats,and wring the necks of the birds.Along with shooting anyone who wants to retain a gun to protect themselves as is our Constitutionally-recognized God-given right of self-defense.
FU and the “authorities.
One more thing,when you think you’re going to smack down the person in front who grabbed a bag,YOU just might get your butt set down.Assaulting fellow travelers during an emergency is vile and despicable.Crawl back under your rock.
