AMEN. The cajuns (for the most part) won't be there with their hands out looking for someone else to clean up and give them handouts. The will put on their boots clean out the mud and get on with their life. Flooding is a way of life on the bayou and it is only the recent generation looking for someone else to pay for it.

Those people know how to live on the water unlike New Orleans
The question is whether or not they can live IN the water, not ON it.

FEMA Trailer Await Evacuees From the Morganza Floodway Opening
Mississippi River flood evacuees move into enclave built for Hurricane Katrina
Jindal Gives 10M for Morganza
FEMA Expands Flood Assistance In Louisiana
I love how when white country folks get federal and state emergency assistance its called "self reliance"

Good post IndianRed
Thanks. I remember the same comments about the nashville floods. The people of Tennessee took many millions in federal assistance and in fact their legislature begged Congress for more.

I agree with your sentiment. I think the difference is that they aren't going to take it and then call the government racist/ commit fraud to get 15 checks and buy designer hand bags with it/claim that they have been on an over pass for 6 days 2 days after the flood starts.

The primary difference is that when poor black folks get emergency assistance they are characterized as leeches but when poor white folks get it they are admired for their resilience in the face of disaster.
Also, the blacks will buy malt liquor with their assistance money, while the whites will buy Coors. That is a key difference.

Okay, the spending patterns of these people are not perfect. It was more about the fraud part.

Yeah sure, there are no poor white criminals in the country, got it. I'm sure that 100% of them are completely honest on their tax returns, so we wouldn't expect them to be dishonest on a claim for assistance in a disaster that the government essentially helped to make worse for them.

What amazes me about human nature is that, if these people would not be warned and told to evacuate, they would throw such a fit when the water shows up at their doorsteps. They would want to sue everybody! But they are warned to evacuate and know about the situation weeks in advance, and they are defiant and say "I aint leaven and yall cant make me"

Some parts of Harris County were without electricity for 2-3 weeks.
