You are both agreeing that the storm is bad yes, but you are communicating in a way that is generally assumptive and hurtful to an area of human beings who are affected by disaster

It would be really very nice if you could hesitate blaming them for this unnatural disaster until after this guy (and others) can get the water out of their houses.

You're right, which is why I stopped. Telling them right now isn't important. What I have is anger, anger that people in power allow this to happen, but directing it here doesn't help. So directing it at people who could have done something is what I'm doing instead.
