I saw the driver interviewed and he said that's not even his truck. A neighbor lent it to him to do rescues, and he estimated they helped around 1000 people evacuate so far.
That's Texas.

I think it was right on the rails. I live in Houston, was fortunate to have come through Harvey with little damage, and spent hours helping folks get out of the small boats that were rescuing people from their water filled homes. The reporting from the various news agencies was on TV pretty much 24/7. But they don't get it... sure, people outside of the situation want to know what's going on, but some of the most inane, redundant, pointless and heartless questions in the world come out of the mouths of these reporters who feel they need to just keep on talking. On more than one occasion, we had to tell reporters to get the fuck out of the way so we could do our work instead of pausing to allow them to conduct an interview. In a situation like this, where people have lost EVERYTHING they own except for the clothes they have on, and have spent hours scared, cold and not knowing if anyone is coming to rescue them, how the fuck can anyone with an IQ bigger than their shoe size think it's a story that wants to be retold in front of a camera? We helped little kids out of boats, with their parents coming along a few boats behind, and reporters walking up to these shivering, scared kids to ask them about any pets they might have left behind or been unable to rescue - to get them to cry. That's inhuman. If it were me, I would've shoved that microphone down that stupid woman's throat. This isn't reporting, it sensationalizing. But I guess we wouldn't expect less from CNN. These people aren't reporters our journalists, they are pond scum.

I have to say, I grew up in a forest where seeing raccoon and possum families was a near daily occurrence, often inside the house, and I did see the kits out playing during the daytime alone sometimes. Had we assumed the parental units were flat meat, we would have split up a half dozen or more families to "rescue" critters that were just fine. I feel like that happens a lot, to the critter's detriment. You know what they say about good intentions, right?
Now, if he looked on the road and there was a large female freshly killed nearby, my opinion might change, but best bet if you don't KNOW they're in need of help is to just leave them alone and assume they'll find mom soon, imo.
