If there are 1000 people in need of help in an area, your faggy little 4 man official emergency response team (aka, excuse to get paid to fuck off in the woods during the work week) is not going to get that job done.

The government groups never have anywhere near enough resources to really help. But they will swear up and down nobody else can competently do so much as move a tree off the road or hump a 5 gallon container of water to a cut off house.
