Pathetic that you would mock a group of people who were probably scared out of their minds. Idiot.
It was so stupid, I didn't want to acknowledge it by commenting. Glad others felt the same way. This guy should be banned for being an insensitive moron.

Agreed. Though, I'm sure being a complete asshole isn't a "ban-able" offense.

As a resident of Katy, TX (west Houston) we experienced non-stop rain fall like you could not imagine. I am fortunate to live just far enough west of the Addicks Reservoir to have escaped the flood waters. Although the rain has stopped, thousands of homes are currently being flooded by two reservoirs located in Katy/West Houston. This is a result of excess rain waters still filling the reservoirs from upstream, their levees overflowing and flood waters being released from the reservoirs by the Army Corp of Engineers. There are thousands of families across Texas that lost everything and donations of any amount to the American Red Cross would be greatly appreciated. FYI; That distasteful photo is an actual photo taken of residents in a nursing home in Dickinson, TX. The entire town of Dickinson was evacuated in order to escape the flood waters. Thanks for all the prayers and concerns for the residents in Texas.

Scott,

Glad to hear you're in the clear and I think it goes without saying that the whole country at this point is thinking of all the people down there.

I know that picture and the nursing home story went viral, was a huge topic on the local news here in Mass.

Can only hope for a quick recovery.

Best to you Scott. I'm including a link to an article on a former resident of Katy, who is expressing his thoughts.

Take care...
