A gaggle of the most hated group in America risking their lives to save a little dog. Southern white men exercising their "white privilege" to save a life. Bibles and guns likely near by.

“Bibles and guns likely near by. “

If anything is left “floating by” it should be the corpses of dead looters.

Brought a tear to my eye! You good people in Texas are setting an example of how to behave in a crisis. Looking forward to better days for the Texas Gulf Coast!

Thankfully we were able to get the dog to safety before he was swept away.


Wait...what?

So true. Did you see the video yet of the gospel singers spontaneously breaking into song in an evacuation shelter?

You’d think these kind of actions would tamp down the hate, wouldn’t you? But, no. They were all over Tucker Carlson’s show last night, crying and screaming the hate.

The rescue happened Tuesday along Beaver Brook Street in Lumberton, according to witness Kavan Wise, after a group of teens tried crossing a bridge on an ATV and got stuck. One boy hopped off to push the ATV the rest of the way and Bandit followed, getting caught in the current.

Wise said Bandit’s collar got caught in the trees, allowing the group to strap someone in and recover the pup.

Reminded me to check out a thread I tabbed for reading:

In crises such as Harvey, you want outdoorsmen on your side ( A must read)

Love this video. Imagine if the guy’s dog would have been swept away? Goodness. The dog looked a little out of it. Poor little guy didn’t know what hit him.

That makes him as bad as them for giving them a stage...Giving them a stage only emboldens them...Why else would they go on Faux?

Some Faux fans are too stupid to understand it.

I must admit I’m getting sick of Tucker’s show these days. Endless idiots spewing hate. BORING!

Texas is showing these leftist haters what “deplorables” they constantly call names are about. I’ve never seen such a large rescue mission to save pets during a disaster like I’m seeing in Texas.

Provoking these people into revealing themselves repeatedly on video via a friendly source does have future value, even if it is irritating to watch now.
