As usual it was the poor who were left behind, those who did not have transport, could not afford to move, did not have access to all the information and what else can you expect, but looting and scared mothers screaming for food and rescue, because living in the shadow of the rich for so long these people have been liberated and rejected in the same breath. This mornings office reading was James 4:13 to 5:6.
