Bridge City after Hurricane Ike
Let me start out by saying my hear goes out to the many residents of BC. As a volunteer for the area, its no doubt that the entire city is a complete disaster.

I have met many nice people and many not so nice people. With all the mayhem, you would think that the many residents of Bridge City would be more cordial to the people who are trying to help them in their despair. I have witnessed unappropiate comments about people passing through the town, some wanting to lend a helping hand, volunteers and others wanting to salvage whats been thrown out.

We have all been affected by Hurricane Ike; directly or indirectly, but I find it very disturbing to know that despite what your town is facing, many residents in the area still have hardened hearts and prejudices.

I noticed signs that read " YOU LOOT WE SHOOT"!!!!!! HOW WELCOMING IS THAT???? Looting is when you break and enter into a place of business,facility etc... Nontheless, why would'nt you want others to take your "trash" if they like, there's barely enough city trucks to clean up the town; from my understanding other surrounding areas where called to help pick up all the trash and clutter.

Then there were really nice, neighborly signs that read "Please do not remove"; plain and simple...Now if your belongings are placed outside and your insurance agent or FEMA inspector hasnt come out; of course you wouldnt want anyone to remove your (once) treasures". More importantly, where is the mayor of the town?  Who is the mayor of town? Why would he allow his residents to write such "UNWELCOMING SIGNS"??

One might ask themselF, why did God allow such tragedy to happen to this small Town??

WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!! YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE'S THAT HAVE BEEN AFFECTED!!!!! God allowed you to live, which means you can start over. There are those who did not live through the storm!!!!!!
