There are people missing and some have lost their lives. People are stuck on cruise ships in Mexico trying to get back home. Homes and businesses have been lost; livestock, dogs and cats are missing; power lines are down; oil and gas drilling are on hold; interstates, cars and trucks are flooded; restaurants, banks, malls, schools, apartment buildings, hospitals, t.v. stations, churches, synagogues, mosques and gas stations are under water. Emergency personnel are having a difficult time getting to those who need help. Crews are out trying to repair power. This is no time to point fingers or politicize; this is no time to take advantage of a major disaster and hurl accusations. This is a time when all of us need to come together and help those in need.
Disasters do not discriminate.
They come for us no matter our color, no matter whether we're Christian, Atheist, Agnostic, Jewish, Muslim, Democrat, Republican, Independent, homeless, rich or poor, transgender, straight or gay. If what is happening in Texas isn't a wake up call to humanity I don't know what is.How to help:
