Woman 'Astonished' by Alleged Behavior of Red Cross After She Brought 400 Burgers for Harvey Victims

"A woman in Texas says she was “astonished at the behavior of the Red Cross” when she tried to bring 400 hamburgers for Hurricane Harvey evacuees at the Jack Brooks Regional Airport in Nederland, Texas.

The woman, who identified herself as Lindsey Scott, claims a husband-wife team with Red Cross “accosted” and “berated” her for bringing the food. Here’s what she’s claiming:

My sister says I can use her FB page to get something off my chest if I identify myself lol. This is Lindsey Scott, and I'm astonished at the behavior of the Red Cross husband/wife team at the mid-county Jack Brooks airport yesterday. Who together accosted me and took turns berating me because I was trying to bring 400 warm hamburgers to our hungry evacuees, who according to them did not need the food because they had “already had a sandwhich.” Yes, they had 1 sandwhich in 24 hours. They were desperate for a hot meal! The Red Cross proceeded to try and load the warm, ready to eat burgers into an ice chest. The pilot, who had donated his time, fuel, money, plane and arranged the delivery of the burgers was horrified at not being able to serve them (he actually came to volunteer as well). I confess I just stood there with my mouth gaping open, fighting back tears while they told me that I did not know what I was doing and they had not even seen me volunteering. This is not a normal reaction for me but either exhaustion or pregnancy hormones got the best of me because I simply couldn't find the words to fight back...  "

This situation is appalling and you are right to bring it to our attention. ~Thanks

Sometimes these official service organization people come to feel that their specifically sanctioned group has the rights to any disaster; they forget the historical American charity expression from our grass roots and their narcissism jealously wants to control everything - shame on them for wasting well intended & needed emergency resources from these citizen's homeland & heartfelt contributions. :-(
Thanks Eddessa. That was sad situation for a charitable act.
Thanks konane, huge component in this disgrace is that many liberals have infiltrated these honored philanthropic institutions for their own personal gain $$$ (forgetting the ostensible goals) thus corrupting the core concept in these last 8 years. :-(

PS-
Just L@@K at the huge Red Cross salaries for a non profit institution?

Shaking my head.
