Just how retarded are Texans?

Right now, a lot is going on in Texas.  Lately, there’s been a lot of severe flooding, and that flooding has taken lives of many people, including children who were at a summer camp.  Today, Kristi Noem, the secretary of Homeland Security, was peppered with question after question.

Why wasn’t there more warning?  Why this, why that.  Why, why, why?  Well, fuck those assholes.  Instead of blaming others, all those who died and all those who stayed behind, even in the face of massive flooding, are or were, as the case may be, retarded.

Surely they saw it coming.  There was definitely time to evacuate had these idiots thought for themselves instead of being sheep!

Instead, it seems that the idiots who died and those who still remain are stupid.  Sure, let’s just sit there and wait for the government to alert us.  All that time wasted waiting instead of taking responsibility for their own well being is laughable.

As of the time this article was published, at least 32 people lost their lives, at least 14 of them children.  And none of them are victims of anything other than their own idiocy.  Now of course, the death toll will continue to climb and I for one do not feel one ounce of sympathy for anyone.

Yes, yes, perhaps the Emergency Alert System should have been activated a lot earlier than it was, but again, we can’t trust our lives to the government.  This comedy in Texas should serve as proof of that.

A lot of people seem to blaming the National Weather Service.  Well, again, you can’t depend on others for your own safety and that of your family.  I’m almost certain that the weather forecasts called for heavy rain.  To me, that would be a cue to grab my go bag, my cats and to fuck off proper.  These retards just sat on their hands, waiting for someone to tell them what the hell to do.

Yes, I’m aware that they weren’t told until the early afternoon and yes, I’m aware that at that time, “moderate” flooding was called for.  Again, however, this would be my cue to run like hell rather than surrendering my life to the government!

Seriously, what kind of retard just sits around doing nothing in a situation such as that?  Seriously!  What makes this even more hilarious is that apparently, there are several dams in the area.  In heavy rains and what not, dams have been known to, you know, fail.  Here again is proof that all of these people affected by the storm are absolute retards.

There’s no other word powerful enough to describe them!

Some will say that I am showing no empathy or compassion.  Others will say that I’m cold and an asshole for writing this.  Maybe.  But maybe I feel this way because I lived in a place where, heavy rain was in the forecast.

As the hours went on, the forecasts grew more grim.  I watched the news on the television station that I worked at in their master control room.  The forecaster even went so far as to say that people in certain areas like mine should get to higher land.  Very few people in my tiny city did and they paid for that dearly by not listening.

Rather than waiting to be told what to do, I packed my things, grabbed my cat and left in a hurry, speeding over the bridge just as the cops were shutting it down. What were they going to do, pull me over for speeding during an emergency?

I grabbed a hotel room and watched the news.  My city was hit hard and still, people stayed, making sitting ducks out of themselves.

As it turned out, my apartment building was flooded.  I lost a lot of things, but unlike two of my neighbors who died, I thought for myself.  Yes, I lost things, things that were replaced through renter’s insurance, but my life and that of my beloved feline were saved.

The two who died were an elderly couple who, by virtue of their age, should have known better.  It was their stupidity that caused their deaths and it was my intelligence that saved two lives and my most essential documents.

Maybe it’s the fact that I dared to think for myself that causes me to feel nothing when I watch the hilarity unfold before my beautiful brown eyes.

I don’t feel sorry for anyone who died, whether kid or adult.  By virtue of their own Texas stupidity, they got what was coming to them.  I for one find all of this to be comedic at every level.

I look at the footage of people whining and crying about lost family members and I feel no sympathy.  I feel nothing at all towards the parents who were crying like little bitches, afraid for their children who were too stupid to leave the situation.  Or maybe, just maybe, the parents should have retrieved them at the first sign of trouble.

I do, however, feel gratitude for the entertainment.

Everything that has happened and that will happen is all because of basic human stupidity.  Instead of waiting for the NWS, the EAS or local government, maybe, just maybe, people should take responsibility for their own safety and their own well-being.

All I can do at this point, all that I can do is sit back and laugh as the death toll continues to ever climb, knowing that if these people had simply been intelligent and evacuated on their own, the death toll could have been zero.  But no, let’s let others do the thinking for us!

Is there some kind of stupidity formula in the water over there in Texas?
