FL, thanks for posting this.  It is such a challenge, diving through MSM to see what is really going on.

Okay, I just read an article about residents of Hoboken NJ

http://news.yahoo.com/tempers-flare-nj-city-where-thousands-stranded-171518266.html

They are all mad because the city is being too slow getting food and supplies out to them. 

I'm sorry, but the storm was just two days ago.  Have these people never gone camping?   Do they not have enough food and water and TP to last more than  two days?

Obviously, no.

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

"These anti-gun fools are more dangerous to liberty than street criminals or foreign spies."--Theodore Haas, Dachau Survivor
