  1. Sorry dude! I LIVE HERE!! We were less than 1.5 mi. from a VERY LARGE Levy, and it

    #1] DIDN’T EVEN BEGIN to break;

    #2] Didn’t even ‘leak’, [better than D.C.!!]; AND! The flooding,

    #3] (WHILE EXTREMELY SERIOUS), the flooding wasn’t going to EVEN BEGIN to “make Houston disappear”!! ONLY 30% of H-Town was flooded; {SOME LITERALLY UNDER WATER}…BUT!!! (that means 70% was NOT)!!!

    I commend you for TRYING to get the SERIOUSNESS across! BUT! HYPER BOYLE doesn’t HELP! YES! This WAS the WORST Hurricane EVER RECORDED in Texas History! YES! MANY, MANY people lost their homes, and businesses! YES! Hospitals WERE CLOSED, (and today STILL ARE…the one I visited today is doing the prescriptions for the ENTIRE CITY)! BUT!!! We’re recovering rapidly…the rivers and lakes and levy’s are ALL RESEEDING RAPIDLY! One lake, (that flooded a huge section of 1960,[major EAST / WEST thoroughfare]), was inundated & over flowed, two days ago…NOW it’s like 10 feet lower than just two days ago!! (It’s not but about 5 mi. from my home! ALSO…”looters” DID TRY to make some “hits”, BUT! MANY of H-TOWN’S citizens are properly trained & armed, and let the “looters” KNOW…unequivocally…”NOPE! NOT HERE!”

    There was ONE serious case of “shots fired” by “looters”, [I use the quotes because that’s the tag POLICE gave these dimwits]; at, or, more exactly, ABOVE the heads of several of the “LOUSISIANNA CAJUN NAVY”, (who were rescuing folks at the time), and the LCN simply called the MARSHALS, who came quickly, and then the POLICE CHIEF of H-Town, [I believe it was], sent out a text: “Our mission NOW is to arrest “looters”!…

    Also, in my Apartment complex, a “GANG” came in, CLEARLY “casing” the Complex, (probably because QUITE a few had evacuated), BUT! Those left there, REMOVED the TRASH, sending them running, [quite willingly], out of the area! LOL! (good ole Texas justice)!!!

    No one was hurt, nor were ANY shots fired…just garbage detail working hard! God Bless’em!

    PLEASE FOLKS!! DO NOT OVER PLAY the seriousness…YES! IT IS SERIOUS AND WILL BE FOR QUITE SOME TIME…but H-TOWN isn’t going to run away, or cease being the BEST CITY we know!!! We’ll just NEED a lot of WORK DONE, that’s all!!! AND, we’re UP TO IT!!!

  2. If people would look at the military map and the Michael Scallions map of the future which shows that we are going to lose some of what has gotten hit with Harvey and LA. is almost gone. That should tell people that rebuilding near Houston is a waste of time move north more say near San Antonio. Austin and get out of harms way. YOu can just do it so long and give up. I would use that money that you get and move. and forget of rebuilding what you just lost and getting it up higher I think is also a waste of time. Because what the car is parked underneath the structure.

  3. If people only knew, the secret black projects, the money raised from the heroin and cocaine trade by various officials, agencies, bankers etc. and the money spent on senseless regime changes and killing overseas. I don’t know what to say other than wake-up America. Also the fact about $50 billion per year goes to foreign aid to buy the loyalty of so called friends. Imagine if just $50 billion per year of that money made it infrastructure each year and another $50 billion to medical research per year and finally imagine if all those classified and confiscated patents related to free energy, anti-gravity, medical cures, age reversal and life extension were released for the public’s benefit.

  4. IT IS SO SAD THAT OUR GOVERNMENT SPENDS BILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON THE WAR AND DEATH MACHINE. YET NOT LONG AGO TEXAS WAS IN A SERIOUS DROUGHT. WE COULD BUILD BETTER DAMS PIPES AND STORE OR MOVE THIS WATER TO AREAS THAT NEED IT TO KEEP THE STATE GREEN AND HAPPY! WHEN THE WAR OR BIG QUAKES START WE WILL SEE THOSE UNSAFE RADIATION PLANTS OF DEATH SPILL THEIR POISON AND DEATH ON THE LAND, WATER AND AIR….PEOPLE YOU NOT SEEN ANYTHING YET! MAYBE GOD IS TELLING YOU TO REPENT AND LIVE FOR GOD NOT YOUR FLESH, SIN, PRIDE AND EGO’S. MILLIONS OF ABORTED BABIES SCREAM OUT TO GOD. GOD HEARS THEM ALL….PEOPLE YOU HAVE PISSED GOD OFF. HIS ANGER AND WRATH IS COMING SOON!!

    • All the hypocrisy over the years is coming to a singularity, now all the bad events that take place is the result.

    • James, in much of your statements I agree…

      WAR IS OFTEN SIMPLY: #1] A waste…of PEOPLE AND TIME! AND! it IS a MONEY MAKING VENTURE for, evil, cruel, & greedy Corporations! TRUE! BUT! Gripping won’t stop them! We NEED to hold them accountable!

      #2] Droughts and flooding, and dams breaking DO HAPPEN! FACT OF LIVING! BUT! Complaining won’t change things, and accusing HAS TO BE FACT BASED…AND! The CLEARLY guilty [those irresponsible, AND RESPONSIBLE!], must be revealed, dealt with, criminally charged, and punished! AND! The citizenry NEEDS to pay closer attention to the “politicians” and “Committees”, AND those who CAN change things to the better, NEED to be elected, or hired, to do so!

      #3] Nuclear Science IS & HAS BEEN FOR SOME TIME NOW, useful, profitable, AND helpful…BUT AGAIN! There ARE those who think ONLY OF PROFITS for THEIR POCKETS…and THEY NEED to be weeded out, prosecuted, and PUNISHED SEVERELY, (ESPECIALLY IN CASES like this COSBY debacle)!!! I believe that Nuclear Science CAN & WILL be able to advance our Nation, AND environment…

      #4]BUT ONLY when wisely, conscientiously, and for the RIGHT REASONS utilized! CORRUPTION, GREED, SELFISHNESS, LAZINESS, and APATHY ALL lay at the ROOT of MOST of the negatives that you’ve pointed out. MORAL & ETHICAL STANDARDS are gravely missing in today’s teaching and MANY YOUTH have a self absorbed mentality because of such lacks of PROPER TEACHING!

      #5] James, you’re LAST STATEMENT, (beginning with: “People! You’ve not seen anything yet! MAYBE God is telling you to repent & live for God, not your flesh, sin, pride, & Egos!…”), CLEARLY STATES MANY of the PROBLEMS this Country, AND our City, are suffering under…because “We the People…” have “forgotten our God”!

      BUT, James, there’s a beautiful promise that Yahwey, [Hebrew for “God”], made to ALL His children, in II Chronicles 7:14…Which states: “If My people, which are called by My name, shall HUMBLE THEMSELVES and PRAY, and SEEK My face and turn from their wicked ways, THEN will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sins, and will heal their land”. (All caps are my emphasis).

      James, I sincerely believe that MUCH OF THE RECENT “natural disasters” that have ravaged our Land, & Nation, have been BOTH “tests”[Job 1: 6 – 12 & 2:1 – 6]; as well as WARNINGS, (Daniel 9: 9 – 14), that we have “forsaken our LORD & SAVIOR”, and are in NEED of NATIONAL REPENTANCE! (Daniel 9: 3 – 20 and 10: 2 thru 12)…NOTE the SPECIFICS of Daniel’s prayers! BUT, ALSO NOTE that a spiritual battle was waged in the heavenlies (Dan.10: 13 – 24 & 20), and that, AFTER his many days of fast and prayer, Daniel was given two wonderful revelations, that are even today, coming to pass!!!

      FRANKLY James, I believe that your LAST STATEMENT was the most significant & powerful statement of ALL!

      God BLESS you brother, and may we CONTINUE to “seek the Lord while HE may be found”!!!
