Don't think for a minute that I don't feel bad for these people.
God this awful.
I hope our government doesn't screw around and politicize these tragedies.

PRAYERS...

Oklahoma City gets more tornadoes than any city on Earth. While a tornado of that magnitude is rare, a city which is in the heart of tornado alley should be better prepared. There should be enough shelters everywhere in the Oak City metro area to accommodate anybody that needs to get in one. If it means politicisizing it to make more people safe I'm all for it.

Who, in their fkn right mind would build a residence or other districts in areas that are known for tornadoes. They have a huge case of asshole builders , selling a bill of goods to a lot of innocent people, in the name of profit.

There, I just gave the opening politicizing statement :D

The 'tornado paths' change over time. Atlanta went from no tornados to some serious storms on a regular basis. I got to work one day and found a tree had come through the ceiling outside my office! Hard to plan for.

Then send some cash... Any body found a relief fund yet? 100 bucks from every one will go a lot further than a bunch of beaurocrats standing around, figuring a way to tax every one to crap to pay for all this misery.

I know Red Cross.

These people gonna need more...

The town of Greensburg, Kansas was devastated a few years ago. Much of the rebuilding WASN'T with government funding, and the city modernized and improved over the old structures. If government can pitch in that's great, but for people to expect government to be THE savior that's ridiculous. In America, individuals and private enterprise still do a lot of the rebuilding. People, individuals, rolling up their sleeves and pitching in make the difference, NOT government.

Well I guess the first fkn thing is that the PREZ needs to get off his ass and on a plane to get down there immediately. Then he needs to officially declare Disaster so that the Disaster relief process kicks in ... (Of course this assumes he 'knew' about the tornado.)

Well I shared on here a couple of weeks ago that a small tornado hit the cemetary where a lot of my family are buried, plus knocked down a bunch of trees in my singers dads pasture.

It was small, lasted probably 2 minutes and hit an area roughly a quarter of a mile long and about 100 ft wide, its hard for me to imagine a tornado, that lasted for 40 minutes, went 20 miles long and a mile wide, very scary.

I wont say anything about politics, just prayers for the people suffering loss's.

Red Cross is always a safe donation place. Be careful of ANY donation centers set up immediately after a disaster.

Terrible pictures coming out of OK.
