Meh, take the food. The store likely has some sort of insurance. It’s not like they can sell it now, so they’re going to list all the inventory as a loss anyways. People gotta lighten up. Folks out here just trying to live.

I encourage you to think about what would happen if someone gave you a week or two to move everything in your home out of harms way. Could you afford it?Where would you go? What if you made minimum wage and were barely paying your bills as is? Could you afford the weeks of lost work? Or the months of lost work…

It’s disgusting how many people don’t understand poverty in situations like this. If you don’t have a car, you’re fucked. If you do have a car but no gas money, you’re fucked. If you have a car with gas in it, where are you going? Gonna stay a month in the Hilton? Are you elderly or disabled? Fucked.

Houston is the 4th largest city, that is a TON of people to move down one main corridor and smaller roads that just cannot handle a full scale evacuation in a short time with out major pre planning and guidance to keep the road flowing even at a crawl.

It wasn’t about money for me. It was about logistics. I only got half a day off on Friday. I live on the Southeast side of the city. If I drive 50 miles west, I’m still in the Houston city limits, but I’m in a line behind several hundred thousand people. Finding a hotel east of San Antonio would be impossible, do I…

No it wasn’t preventable dumbass. There are 5 million people in Houston. If all 5 million decided to evacuate on Thursday when the storm was upgraded to a hurricane, there would still be people on the road today.

Yeah, why didn’t these nursing home residents just hop in their SUV?

1. Governor insisted that Houston residents not evacuate. 2. Many people are too poor to evacuate. It is the end of the month, what do you do, where do you go, with $44 left in your bank account? 3. Go how people love to look down on the misfortunate. During Katrina it was all those black people too stupid and…

At this very moment on this question Arnold is standing on the correct side.

As you note, Arnold has never been what one might call a progressive. He has some pretty toxic beliefs, in my opinion. So for someone like him to make a video like this speaks volumes about just how messed up things are in the US right now. I’m gonna go ahead and say something I never thought I would say: “well done,…

This man’s continued existence is proof that JFK was not killed by any government plot.

“You are literally the person in the photo.”

This has nothing to do with free speech. These assholes don’t have a right to a job at a company that doesn’t want to employee them because they’re now a liability. The right to employment is not enshrined in the constitution. They weren’t maced, tear gassed, or shot with rubber bullets at their protest. The…

Nazis and supporters of the Southern Confederate States get no rights. You can’t be an American and a Nazi. You can’t memorialize the Confederate rebels in a positive way and still be an American. We fought wars over both these things.

Was she recording? It seemed possible that’s what she was doing with her phone. Smart move, if so.

I’m officially an old.

Here’s a tip, clothing manufacturers: if your “summer dress” is made out of 100% polyester then it is not, in fact, a summer dress. It’s a dress-shaped sauna. Ain’t no one got time for that.

She could have been holding a knife because she was barbecuing in the backyard! She could have been holding a knife because she was afraid of the burglar she called them about (yes, mental issues, I know, but...)! IT’S NOT ILLEGAL TO HOLD A KNIFE.
