The Floods in the USA are making Major News, it`s a Disaster.
I found this over on Reddit...
What Are WBT$ / JW`s Doing to Help VS Church`s?
The Difference is Staggering.

These Anti-Hospitality policies are pissing me off
I live in the epicenter of the recent flooding that destroyed a good chunk of the developed infrastructure in Western North Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia. The day after, people crawled out of their holes with chainsaws in hand, clearing roads, filling holes with backhoes, and digging corpses out of the mud.

Where were the JW's? Nowhere to be found.

Three days in, all of the local churches that were still standing rallied together to provide food, water, and shelter to victims who were displaced. Our roads were still gone with no way in, no way out, by car at least. The waters have fully receded.

Where were the Elders? Nowhere around.

One week in, every church had their doors swung wide open providing free meals and supplies to anyone, no questions asked. We still wouldn't have power or clean water for another two whole weeks yet, but we didn't know.

How far apart were the doors to the Kingdom Hall? Sealed up tight, just like the scrolls their Masters have been waiting to read for the last 110 years.

Two weeks in, helicopters have dropped supplies. The Army and National Guard are going from house to house, from door to door, checking of people. Food, generators, fuel, and equipment are being delivered hourly to the local churches for distribution.

Where were our elders then? Hiding inside of their dry houses.

Come to last Friday: Watchtower shipped in supplies to the local Kingdom Hall, which has been taken over by the Disaster Relief Committee. "Finally," I think... "They've shown up to help people!" But the doors were still locked. So I drive to the house of an elder I know, and knock on the door. "I know we've had some bad blood in the past, but right now, life is more important than any of that. Can I send people to the hall to get what they need?" The elder responded "No, the supplies are not for the public. From what I've heard, several years ago during another disaster, a sister brought her neighbor, and the neighbor loaded her car down with supplies. Only people approved are allowed in." "But the government is giving Watchtower out tax dollars to help these people. It's not coming out of your pockets if someone decides to be greedy. And even if they are, who are we to judge? Watchtower gets the same money that the Red Cross does, along with the Southern Baptist Disaster Relief program, and they're not judging people looking for help. So what's the deal?"

Of course, he redirected and would not respond. So here we are YET AGAIN, and this time I've seen with my own eyes that the rumors are true. I ask that you kindly forgive me for the foul utterance which I am about to bestow.

To the Watchtower and its directors, the Governing Body: I hope that there is a special place for you in the Hell you don't believe in, and that everyone who supports your blind, godless policies, will get to sit right alongside of you laughing. I hope that the governments of the world pick you apart, page by page, entrail by fucking entrail, until you learn that there is no place in this life nor in the one to come, for selfish, detestable pigs who steal our tax dollars for your luxury estate projects, while starving the people who come begging to your door, the same ones who have fished out of the waters the decayed, pale, bloated corpses of the deceased whom you have claimed to love. And now once again, people are suffering because of your callous indifference. May you rot in the darkest prisons our justice system has to offer, and become just like them. Cold, miserable, and alone forever. I hope you take a vacation to the Gulf of Mexico and take a good long whiff of the stench eminating from the bodies of those not counted among the dead, because they could not be identified. That is what you will become one day, just like the rest of us. Their skins are streched across the tree limbs, their intestines are tangled in the banks, and their bones are forever concealed in the mud of our once beautiful rivers. May they remind you of your eventual fate.

I waded waste deep into black water to retrieve a corpse that was covered in bot flies. I dragged it back by the foot, but it started to detatch, and so I had to push it in. The face was disfigured, the eyes grey, bulging out of the sockets. The skin above the water was black and moldy, and the underside was white as paper. Where the happyballoons are you to help us? When I crawled on the bank, I vomited from the stench. The police came to retrieve the body, but our morgues are already filled beyond capacity. Where are you? I watched coffins floating by in the rapids, when they floated out of the ground. But the dead will lie in rest; consider the living you bastards! Where the happyballoons are you and why are you not helping us, you heartless pigs? Every time I see your faces on that damned broadcasting channel, I will be reminded of the stench I smelled when dragging that bloated corpse out of the water. Damn you to hell.

The greatest of love and peace to you, dear, dear Sher'f.

(Huge) sigh. Yeah, that's them, their M-O, how they operate. I wish I could say I'm surprised but I'm not. Nothing new under the sun for them. Very unfortunate for the poster that something new has occurred for them, though: they got to see and learn first hand just what the WTBTS and its adherents ARE... and are not.

Thank you for sharing this and, as always, peace, as JaH and Christ give it... to you, dear Auntie, and the Fam!

YSFS of Christ,

Shelb
