        Number of deaths from Katrina were misleading, too. Maybe 1600 or so drowned, but the unending pages of obits in the following year or two told a very different story.

        6. Letters of Marque and Reprisal could be used to rent planes, helicopters, ships, generators, and other supplies from USA and many other countries.

        5. Government and Regulation of land and naval forces. Letters of Marque and Reprisal have been used against pirates. Letters of Marque and Reprisal may be used against terrorists who are moden pirates. Letters of Marque and Reprisal may also be used to deal with disasters.

        3. Operation Dumbo Drop movie true story dealing with Vietnam - parachutes used to deliver elephant from plane. Lot easier to deliver tons of water bottles and tons of food, medical supplies with parachutes from a plane than an elephant with parachutes from a plane.

        2. Millions used to watch MASH TV show dealing with Korea - helicopters with baskets delivered tons of supplies. When roads are blocked, easy to deliver supplies with helicopters that have baskets and ladders. Coast Guards rescues using helicopters on net.

        Gee, if only @realDonaldTrump could do something about #puertorico. He's probably preparing tweets to rip @ABC because its black president was disrespected by a white star @roseanne when she used a black slur against a black former Obama staffer.https://twitter.com/WSJ/status/1001552732497604608 …

        1. Cargo planes have been used for over 50 years to deliver soldiers with parachutes, tons of supplies with parachutes. Why were they not used significantly in Puerto Rico? Parachute drops Vietnam on net. Army Rangers jumping out of planes on net.

        Why didn't the PR GUV speak up at the time? Surely the knew his people were dead? He made many mistakes but not revealing citizen deaths at the time is incredulous.

        The only reason so many died is because Hilary didn’t support them!
