2. this particular man
drives a tow truck - he was helping others get out. the fact is that the storm surge came in early, ahead of the storm. this man and his wife had every intention of evacuating but it got too late. the water rose too fast, the bridge was washed out, and he and his wife are lucky to be alive.

5. They changed the subject pretty quickly about deaths not being reported.
I do think there's a coverup going on, and that it's political.

6. Sounded like they edited it to me. And people say there isn't a cover up about the deaths?
I'm not buying it.
