And the death toll is probably an undercount because they never count the "illegals." I know that from when a tornado wiped out half of my town and the death count was absurdly low when you could drive by and see how many apartments and homes were just rubble or only a foundation was left. My neighbor worked for the city and she said the coroner didn't add bodies to the count who didn't have a SSN number.

May this horrible event TURN SOME TEXANS WOKE!
