Re: Flood people are they welcome to your town?
I've been hearing on the news today that Central Ohio is expecting evacuees in the thousands, no real number right now. I expect that we'll find out over the next couple of days.<br /><br />Edit: Whoops! Forgot the second part of the question. Yes, any productive member of society, no matter what the race, are always welcome here. I do live in a farming community just outside of Columbus so any troublemakers probably wouldn't last an hour here.

<br /><br />In all seriousnes . . . I am sure CA will make lots of room as Bob has said. The question for me is whether or not I would let someone stay in my home. The answer is that yes, I would, if I could get some real history on the person or family. This goes for anybody that is going to stay at my house. I owe that to my wife and kids.<br /><br />I sense in some of the posts above a confusion between taking in evacuees and taking in some of the worst that were caught on television. Again, the worst cannot stay at my house and I am guessing that they won't be staying at anybody elses homes either. Decent people are definitely and always welcome!
