   It's amazing to me that a 150-mile stretch of Florida's Gulf coast is expecting a surge of more than 8 feet from #Hurricane Milton.

   It's really unfair of people to ignore evacuation warnings, putting rescuers in harm's way.

   But then, I think it's unjust for a climate change-denying state to ignore signs of global warming and expect the rest of the nation to help them after suffering the inevitable increased storms.

   We are a better nation when we take responsibility and think of others.
