JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — A Florida man's good deed is not going unnoticed after he bought over 100 generators and food to send to the Bahamas.
Alec Sprague, who lives in Jacksonville, said he went a Costco to buy a generator, and saw a man purchasing over 100 of them.

Cool.
I saw the US had crews going.
I wonder if we have one of our relief carriers in route.
The journalism on Grand Bahama has gone to crickets.
Why?
Hope he sends fuel and oil to power and lube them.
Notice how liberals aren’t buying windmills and solar panels, but are buying generators and gasoline.
Not Florida Man’s usual MO.
One, there’s nothing left on the island to report on, and with the airport destroyed and nowhere to land a boat, it’s not exactly easy to get there at the moment.
Two, US media is rightfully focused on the fact that that same hurricane is at this very moment still at Cat 3, is sitting right next to Charleston SC, and is ready to make landfall at any moment.
The United States Coast Guard is all over it.

Update 4: Coast Guard continues response efforts in Bahamas due to Hurricane Dorian
U.S. Coast Guard sent this bulletin at 09/05/2019 10:23 AM EDT
MIAMI — Coast Guard Hurricane Dorian response operations are underway in support of the Bahamas. As of Thursday at 9 a.m.:
Coast Guard crews from across the Coast Guard have rescued 135 people and six pets in the Bahamas since Hurricane Dorian began.
The Coast Guard is conducting air operations based out of Andros Island, Bahamas. Seven MH-60 Jayhawk helicopters and three MH-65 Dolphin helicopters are conducting search and rescue missions, area assessments and providing logistical support.
The Coast Guard has three cutters posted near the Bahamas ready to engage in Hurricane Dorian response efforts.
Coast Guard Cutter James conducted an assessment of Freeport Harbour, Grand Bahama.
Coast Guard Cutter Resolute is near the southern area of Grant Bahama Island.
Several other Coast Guard cutters are en route to provide aid and assistance as needed.
There are 17 shallow-water rescue boat teams standing by to respond to Hurricane Dorian.
Saw on another thread a guy from Puerto Rico (Maria) said they don’t need water and food, they just need ICE and GENERATORS, they will take care of the rest.
And also notice the lack of aid from all the rest of the world’s Hate America crowd.
Bump!
The entire communications infrastructure was destroyed. Press could not even reach the people they pre-positioned there before the storm. It’s total devastation.
Perhaps he’s evolving. Or red-pilled. Or liberty has civilized him.
Howard's cousin in Florida.
How long before we see “NEW Generators” for sale on eBay with seller’s name...BahamaMama. (FREE SHIPPING BUT...shipping may be delayed until new airport is built!)
Where do they normally get fresh water in Bahamas?
$45,000 worth of generators and he goes to Costco rather than call a generator manufacturer? A manufacturer that would take a loss most likely. Rather then a box store that is profiting?
That makes zero sense.
Could have paid wholesale got twice as much and have them shipped direct.
I am going with fake news.
Take generators to Bahamas and sell for a profit?

Coverage has Gone to crickets?
There had been coverage?
