I bet the mainstream media has not picked up on this as of yet.
Ike Victims Turned Away In Latest Relief Confusion
Hundreds of Ike victims were turned away from relief locations on Sunday night, only moments after city and county officials announced to the masses that relief was available there, Local 2 Investigates reported."We have six of the PODS open tonight," Harris County Judge Ed Emmett announced during a news conference from Office of Emergency Management headquarters.
Earlier in the day, he and other officials had promised to list off the locations where water, food, and ice would be available during this highly anticipated briefing."Six are up and running," Emmett said of the PODs, which refer to "point of delivery" sites.
Moments later, lines began forming at some of the locations included in his announcement, but the parking lots were empty and police told storm victims they would be leaving empty handed. The PODs were not up and running.
