20,000 pallets of bottled water left untouched in storm-ravaged Puerto Rico

That's a "tremendously" amount of water and plastic wasted. Not to mention the money to produce it and ship it there.

After about 700 pallets had been distributed, complaints began to come in about the water's foul smell and taste,

Of course FEMA blames the locals.

Fuck you Trump.

He was too busy playing golf to give a shit.

Oh and he let 2900 people die. https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/28/healt...ths/index.html

Fuck you Trump.

that article is a piece of shit on a shingle :2 cents::2 cents: lost??? 20,000 bottles? give them out for free now :2 cents::2 cents:

Shithole government kept water and food from the needy people then blamed it on Trump.

yep..i can remember this...even pics of some lady standing in front of unused supplies trying to claim they didnt have any

The shithole govt is US right? Lol

They found container loads of food last week.. That cunt of a mayor should be executed.

So how much water is Puerto Rico planning on sending to South Carolina?

20,000 PALLETS

They commandeered an airport runway, and stacked them on the tarmac.

I mean, the amount of wasted water covers nearly the entire length of the runway.

Actually, FEMA and the WH were once again not prepared.

You bitches act like the locals hid that shit. We are talking 20,000 fucking PALLETS in plain fucking sight but no way to logistically get it to where it was needed.

The US had no real obligation to help Puerto Rico. They do not pay federal taxes and thus should not expect full representation without taxation.

Now if PR wants to start paying taxes to the US, then they can bitch about FEMA not doing enough.

Puerto Ricans are so stupid though.

Tell that to PR US soldiers.

So the Denocrat leaders in Puerto Rico were withholding aid supplies in a foolish attempt to make Trump look bad. Who cares if people die, as long as Trump looks bad!

Typical democrats. Sad.

i would build water stations now with ads and free samples. call in the popular radio stations to play shit. free water!

i think the water has spoiled by now and is undrinkable.

shit went wrong in pr and trump admin is a part of that. it's also ridiculous to deny the death toll and high5 yourself for doing a heck of a job brownie.

Now the problem is the water is bad and everything needs to be disposed of.

This is typical of our government and the massive amount of waste they have. They spent god only knows how much on the water, money to transport it, and money to store it. Now they will need to spend even more money to dispose of it all.

Wouldnt surprise me if Chump ordered FEMA to not release the water.

:1orglaugh

Its not even the same city you stupid fuck...

Yet you say you arent a Nazi... oh wait.. you've never said that because you are scared to say Nazis are bad...

He wants everyone executed that doesn't agree Trump, he doesn't think Nazis are bad therefore would never say it.

The Mayor should be hung in the town square and the natives allowed to beat her to death.

That's the Nazi side of your brain talking.

Maybe we should send you to the electric chair because someone killed someone killed someone somewhere....

The water was controlled by FEMA.. they were storing it in containers and moved it to where it is now in Jan..


"Marty Bahamonde, director of disaster operations for FEMA's Office of External Affairs, said in an interview Thursday that the agency had been storing the water in more than 1,100 containers on the island at a cost of about $300,000 per day before moving the supplies outdoors in January"

So you guys gonna now call for the firing squad or the hanging of Trump's FEMA director?

Guess its "fake news" now am I right? At least we can now point to onwebcam's posting for how fucking mentally deranged he's become...

Care to back track now little Hitler?

Nope, the water still wasn't delivered... Which is the local leaders responsibility. The fact FEMA wanted to quit paying to store it is no surprise.

That cunt or a mayor should be hung, tarred and feathered.

Clearly Puerto Rican people in need or government officials couldn't be expected to run through the swarms of armed surveillance drones, the mine fields, the electric fences, the machine gun placements and sniper nests and the armored tank division to get to that water and give it to anyone that wants it, so that they can survive. I mean really,... what could they be expected to do? Just grab water and distribute it to those in desperate need?

That's insane.

Oh... the article has an excuse for their ineptitude and apathy.. apparently unidentified locals made an unverified, unsubstantiated claim, saying "it tasted bad". Because as we all know, nothing rots faster than bottled water.

Idiot... mayors dont deliver water... FEMA does....

Tarring and feathering a dead person is some sick shit bruh...

I don't understand; perhaps you can explain how bottled water went bad.

Idiot, FEMA delivered to PR and the local leaders (knowing their distribution network and having local disaster plans) take it from there... FEMA is there to assist and provide support to the local leaders NOT take over..

And then beaten like a pinata

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

The water doesn't go bad... The plastic bottles start breaking down in the sun. They then release chemicals into the water that cause cancer...

Ie the expiration date on bottled water is not for the water but for the plastic bottles..

Example I have a water bottle in my hand right now with a exp date of 1/19.. That's less than 4 months and I just bought it.

Those water bottles have been sitting at least a year on top of the last 9 months were in the sun/heat.. Its bad because the bottles are deteriorating..

Its called BPA, you know science stuff that you would like...

Promoting murder on GFY.... how nazi of you.

I really did Nazi that comming...

Just call me Muslim only I prefer swinging sticks over throwing stones

Drumph! Because,... you know...muh narrative.

If math is right, that's $1755 @ 5 cents per bottle return value!!

politicians are like evil twins... if they ask one he/she will blame shit on the other and vice versa... who is going to impeach them for real... their slave-holders at most...

You people blame Trump for anything :1orglaugh

trump gave himself credit for his great job in PR.

In the end, it's a huge waste and it was on Trumps watch. But oh, what is this?

So it turns out, FEMA stockpiled this water, and didn't even start releasing it to locals until May of this year. After around 700 pallets were distributed, the water was found to be undrinkable.

So, here is the summary...

This water sat on the hot tarmac for months and months before being released to the locals.

Complete waste and incompetence.

Only the best people!

:disgust


you really are a piece of shit :disgust

Well, Trump is a piece of shit, and he wants to be like Trump, so......

There are millions of bottles.
