Hi Gang, this note says it all. Gene

Subject: Helping in Texas
Facebook post of the folks helping in TX (See Picture) Let this sink in for a
minute.....Hundreds and hundreds of small boats pulled by countless pickups and
SUVs from across the South are headed for Houston. Almost all of them driven by
men. They're using their own property, sacrificing their own time, spending
their own money, and risking their own lives for one reason: to help total
strangers in desperate need.
Most of them are by themselves. Most are dressed like the redneck duck hunters
and bass fisherman they are. Many are veterans. Most are wearing well-used
gimme-hats, t-shirts, and jeans; and there's a preponderance of camo. Most are
probably gun owners, and most probably voted for Trump.
These are the people the Left loves to hate, the ones Maddow mocks. The ones
Maher and Olbermann just *know* they're so much better than.
These are The Quiet Ones. They don't wear masks and tear down statues. They
don't, as a rule, march and demonstrate. And most have probably never been in a
Whole Foods.
But they'll spend the next several days wading in cold, dirty water; dodging
gators and water moccasins and fire ants; eating whatever meager rations are
available; and sleeping wherever they can in dirty, damp clothes. Their reward
is the tears and the hugs and the smiles from the terrified people they help.
They'll deliver one boatload, and then go back for more.
When disaster strikes, it's what men do. Real men. Heroic men. American men.
And then they'll knock back a few shots, or a few beers with like-minded men
they've never met before, and talk about fish, or ten-point bucks, or the
benefits of hollow-point ammo, or their F-150.
And the next time they hear someone talk about "the patriarchy", or "male
privilege", they'll snort, turn off the TV and go to bed.
In the meantime, they'll likely be up again before dawn. To do it again. Until
the helpless are rescued. And the work's done.
They're unlikely to be reimbursed. There won't be medals. They won't care.
They're heroes. And it's what they do.
