Now I call this a Disaster?

Just you try to get your mind around this one. First an Earthquake of major magnitude, then a tsunami that wipes out entire towns, now a Nuclear event that matches anything we have ever heard of. This is all happened to Japan in a very short period of time. Could this happen to us? Bet your life that it can't as our leaders would have you believe. The Titanic couldn't sink either but I notice it has its own parking spot at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. This attitude of it can happen to anyone but us is going to be the ruin of this country if they do not take the opportunity to learn from this disaster. Here is the lesson to be learned! One disaster can lead to another disaster, which in turn can lead to even further disasters. Oh by the way I failed to mention all the homeless in Japan that have very little water, food, and medicine, hardly any electricity, lost love ones and it is snowing. You might ask yourself, "What is next?" Disasters have a tendency to have a domino effect. Please look at the following pictures that may help you understand what I am trying to tell you and that is; "This could be us!"
The pictures are from ABC News.



  












No Food in Stores

















Roads that can not be used




















Over whelming destruction.

















This is not the Harbor!
















Where do you start?

















It is all gone!
















Looking for survivors!
















Death toll rises!














Thousands Homeless
