LOL. What a douche.

“No one owes you or your family anything, I’m sick and tired of people looking for a damn handout! The City and County, along with power providers or any other service owes you NOTHING! Only the strong will survive and the [weak] will perish. Folks, God [h]as given us the tools to support ourselves in times like this,” he wrote, claiming that those who expected the city to come to their aid were “sadly a product of a socialist government.”

Yes, God has given us tools to help us in times like this. What you don't seem to realize is that YOU are one of those tools. 

Reminds me of this parable...http://epistle.us/inspiration/godwillsaveme.html

Failure to plan for the weather extremes can and will eventually lead to disaster.  Shame on the utilities and government officials for not planning and managing for both extreme heat and extreme cold...  Prayers for the Texans in need of food, water and power.  Hopefully there is state and federal assistance on the way!
