The Reality of 1 Million Refugees--Part 2

How long can you keep 15,000 people in one place, and keep them quiet, comfortable, and content?

And then another 26,000 (link below)? And multiply that by 40 or so.

God be with the volunteers doing this work. I hope to be one of them, if only for one meal for one week. My contribution is nothing; there's is truly the work of the Lord. And I include the police officers in that, trying to maintain order and calm.

But between meals: what do you do with these people?

Given the events of the week, the pathetic excuses from the leadership in the Federal government: does anyone have any confidence that they have a plan for what to do once New Orleans is empty? Not in New Orleans; for all the people.
