In defense of my sister, I think some of you should lay off her.

I don't think you're justified in saying that she's ignorant just because she thinks the hurricane was overrated/overexposed/whatever. She probably is sympathetic that some of you lost family, lost power, had extensive damage to your property, some of y'all were just too freaking ready to jump down her throat that she probably didn't get the chance to explain what she really meant.

So...before any of you decide to jump down MY throat, YES I do know what it feels like to experience something like that. I do know how it feels to lose a freaking roof and spend months and thousands of dollars to rebuild.. My family lost our entire taro farm on Kauai because of Iniki 92, and I was watching Isabel closely and while it didn't directly affect me, I was keeping all of y'all in my thoughts.
