Another Good Man

Posted on by

Black Lies Matter.

Shannon J. Miles, a “dark-complexioned” person of interest, is in custody after the deadly ambush of Harris County sheriff’s deputy Darren Goforth, fatally gunned down without warning Friday night while gasing up his patrol car.

Police lives matter.

This man was gunned down “execution style.” Where are the protestors?

Where is Al Sharpton?

Where are the outside agitators?

Why isn’t Houston burning?

Could it be that the only people who play the race card think only their racists’ lives matter? Could it be that Mr. Sharpton and the other muttonheads just don’t get it?

“Lives matter.”

Katrina 10

Posted on by

Resurrection: Today is the 10th anniversary of Katrina. News stories are full of hope.

Today: The population of New Orleans is higher than ever now as more and more people pour in. More and more people are nutz.

Yesterday: The Army Corps of Engineers levees and dikes had to protect 169 square miles of lowland. Katrina’s storm surge caused 53 different breaches to the levees and dikes in and around New Orleans. 80 percent of the city was submerged with some areas under 20 feet of water.

Today: The First Baptist Church of New Orleans worked hammer-by-glove with Habitat for Humanity to rebuild homes in the Upper Ninth Ward.

Yesterday: Of the 60,000 people stranded in New Orleans, the Coast Guard and the Louisiana National Guard rescued more than 33,500. FEMA saved three.

Today: The non-profit Build Now constructed site-built, elevated, traditional New Orleans-style houses on hurricane-damaged lots and brought families back home.

Yesterday: There was no government. Thirst, exhaustion, and violence in the days after the storm caused hundreds of deaths.

The lessons of Katrina may be learned from FEMA and the Army Corps of Engineers:

If government can’t handle terraforming and storm management for 169 square miles (New Orleans scale), how on Earth does the Far Green expect government to handle terraforming and climate management for 196.9 million square miles globally?
