What's wrong with charging $1.04 for a bottle of water?

The guy in the shorts is not the reporter, it is just a guy in background. You can hear reporters pants swishing as he runs by camera. Probably actually happened but not that dramatic of a rescue.

Too soon?

Even though people are saying evacuation was unrealistic for Houston, the people of the area don't seem to think so. The mayor is gone next election.

Most definitely the correct call from the mayor. Evacuation would have been a disaster.

The flash floods caught everyone by surprise. It's not as if Monday morning last week people expected things to get this complicated. The librarian at my school, old guy from Houston, was still planning on going to a dinner with friends Friday evening.

Everyone I talk to says how surprised they were of the extent. 50 inches is what we got, and that was also the peak prediction that I had heard of.

IMO Houston won't recover. Pro-longed low oil prices, demographic change toward socialism (most recent mayors have been democrats), now this. Prior to this, zerohedge had extensive articles on Houston having the most vacant commercial spaces with companies downsizing. It's become obvious what happens if you buy property near the gulf of mexico....I can't imagine another wave of investment to rebuild it all.

Broscience with no empirical analysis behind it.

From what I've heard Houston has been slowly turning into a shithole long before Harvey.

You heard wrong. Low unemployment, expanding real estate, expanding population size.

It doesn't matter if the mayor did the technically correct action, they will still blame him in an emotional manner for not declaring an evacuation. A bunch of angry, depressed people who lost everything aren't going to give a shit about the empirical evidence of evacuation protocol risks.

Possibly. Maybe try something a little more light hearted.

Reminds me of an old favorite Houston jam with Fat Pat, Hawk, DJ Screw, and Lil Keke.

A pack of 24 bottles of water is usually 4-5 bucks HCE.

Yeah before you rescue someone be sure that you are in a full gear, nice re-touch good lighting, and angle then GO. Why need to quickly change an outfit in the life and death situation.

It's still worth putting things in perspective. He made the tough call. Whether he loses the next election or not, he made the tough call and that counts for a lot.

Because it correctly insinuates that SJWs and their enablers treat minorities* with child gloves.
