If our nation had anything close to that kind of care for its citizens, there would not be all these young corpses scattered under that collapsed school in Oklahoma. I like Oklahoma. The people are, in general, agreeable, warm, friendly and unpretentious. But the ideas lodged in the minds of most citizens of red states of going-it-alone-with-no-one-but-family-and-Jesus, well, that kind of kills your kids. Underground tunnels are tougher than Jesus.
Why there would be schools without safe places for children to take shelter during tornadoes in a tornado prone area...it is hard to fathom. Take a lesson from the engineering, not-God-fearing Swiss. These tornado victims don't need prayers. They need infrastructure.
