1. Don't rebuild,get out.

2. Great

3. 🌀 My Ida survival story 🌀
   Too late to evacuate,
   Plus where would we all go?
   In a short amount of time, 
   What was a category 3 changed to a 4.
   We tried to be prepared the best way we knew,
   But no one could prepared for what we would all actually go through.
   Beginning of it we were all okay,
   Watching t.v as the winds made the trees sway.
   Than Ida became more aggressive,
   Winds, rain, picking up speeds reckless.
   Power went in out, kids became scared,
   Son & youngest daughter, faces filled with tears,
   Ceiling light fell, leaving pieces of debris to clean,
   Leaving me & dad to take turns mopping up the leaks.
   On top of the water from outside that began to creep,
   From what had to be from all directions,
   In various different sections.
   We managed & survived the hurricane,
   Thankful we made it to see the next day.
   Next day was sunny exposing the damage left,
   With enough juice in my battery to text.
   We are ok we made it, thank God for his grace,
   Other Ida survivors texting back the same,
   When will power be on, still left in the dark,
   Even as I write this that question still has a question mark ❓
   Looting & breakins every man for himself,
   Leaving all stores close to home with nothing on their shelves.
   Home feeling like a sauna, faces losing weight,
   No hot meals, for us to put on our dinner plates.
   Its crazy what you begin to miss when its all gone,
   Just like you dont how strong you are until you gotta be strong.💪
   But strength comes with numbers,
   Not gonna lie glad we had one another.
   We lit candles and played card games,
   Laughing at the funny jokes told, most lame.
   After 3 days we finally had a warm meal thanks to pops,
   Otherwise it was pb&j, can goods, water & soda pop.
   Sis offered us to stay with her in the sunny state,
   Offer I had no objective to take.
   Gas was scarced, & the ones that had gas,
   Lines were so long took 2 hrs to fill our tank.
   But no complaints we made it,
   Seeing my kids frowns turn to smiles,
   Enjoying hot meals we didn't have in awhile.
   Watching my 4 year old sleep peacefully,
   Instead of her tossing & turning,
   No more complaining about how her body was burning.
   During the storm she was meditating,
   Now she jumping in pool water with no hesitations,
   These kids honestly are having, like a mini vacation,
   Beyond grateful for my sisters act of kindness,
   R.i.p to the lives that were lost, moment of silence 🙏

5. Oil spill not that big of a problem

7. Joe Biden needs to be put in one of those nursing homes

8. Louisiana is a toxic dump. Always has been. People are crazy to live there and this will happen again, maybe even again before the end of the year. High crime, pollution, obesity, substance abuse. A very unhealthy state. Bunch of racists too.

9. Over a million without power, nation news just keeps talking about Texas, we need to come together truly help each other.

10. You should come to Cameron, Lake Charles, and the surrounding areas… It's been a year since we were hit this hard by Hurricane Laura and we still aren't rebuilt and are forgotten by most. This will take years to recover from. We went 3 months without power in our area. There's still a lack of housing, building supplies, and other necessities.

11. what did they expect to happen?

12. Evacuated after the storm to Arkansas. Ain’t ever going back to New Orleans.

13. I pray help comes soon because we have no electricity, we’re out of food and it’s so hot that if we run out of bottle water we will die out here! The tap water is contaminated but we can’t boil it because of no electricity. We can’t leave because there is no gas! FEMA denied us because we’re homeowners, but homeowners insurance doesn’t do advance payments. I walked 3 miles just to get some internet and cell service!

14. Stories of capitalism

15. Let me guess. Red state gonna beg for blue state money again?

16. The nights shall be dark and full of terror… And the crows shall come… Jesus is the ONLY WAT OUT!!!

17. Gee, I thought after a cat4 hurricane I'd be able to charge my phone anywhere?

18. People should leave louisiana

19. Lord jesus 4 weeks, wow! Praying so hard for y'all louisiana !

20. Biden’s fault

21. Don't go to California. It would be like jumping from the frying pan in the fire. You have too much water and they don't have any.

22. Where did prison inmates go to🤔

23. Why do people still live their? like you know youre in storm town use this happens every year

25. Over dramatized story. One week after the storm 90% of Baton Rouge and 50% of New Orleans has had power restored.

26. I would never ever live south of the Mason Dixon line

27. Why live there

28. Just like Katrina. Southern states and their governors are absolutely failing their own people. From crime to poverty. These red states are just awful.

29. NBC de la
