"We've had a miracle situation," company spokesman Bob Ferguson said. "Only eight lost."

[doublethink]

I mean WTF? I stopped reading the article after that line. I clicked out. How callous a response. Anyone want to fill me in on what the hell this person was talking about? Really sad story of people digging themselves out of that warehouse to that point. I mean 80 + last article I read died. What kinda fuck kinda person would say such a thing? What kinda fool would get paid to go out front of the press and utter those lines? I gotta go feed the doggies ... sigh ...

1. Speak now Bob because the lawsuits are going to bankrupt you

2. Disgusting, callous P.O.S. Those eight had family, friends, lives to live. The loss of even one

should have been too many.

3. NOT a miracle for those 8.

Would you be calling it a "miracle," Bob, if one of them was your spouse or child or parent? I think not.

4. Every time I hear someone who survived a tragedy in which other people died say

“God was watching over me”, I always wonder how that resonates with the families of those who died. I get that they’re thankful to be alive, but saying that God intervened to save your life means that God for some reason chose not to save the lives of the ones who did die.

5. this is why "there but for the grace of God" is probably my least favorite trope ever

It's so profoundly self-centered.

6. God aims the tornado at them...

And wants credit for the ones he missed
