Ron,
I just was not going to post it, but I was thinking the same thing. Of course if any of the farmers ever asked for it, they would be called racist. Then again, they had no warning of the coming disaster, so how can they require aid? Now if they knew weeks in advance that the storms were going to come and not stop and they did nothing, then maybe they would have gotten the same treatment.

I still have a sore spot for the Katrina "victims". I lived in an apt at the time and they put up a few families there. Never had a problem until then. Car was broken into, loud music all night long, broken beer bottles in the parking lot, yelling all night outside, police lights in the parking lot all the time at night, etc... I went from living in a nice neighborhood to the ghetto overnight. I later found out that they were living rent free, while getting paid from the state. There were 2 guys who were demanding that a local bar give them free drinks all night because they were "victims".
