News Log Number 21

Earth Quake in Chile. As many of us have heard over the long weekend there was an eight point eight magnitude earthquake that hit Chile, and hit it pretty hard. As of now death toll reaches about seven-hundred and thirty people. Seven hundred and thirty people is way too many deaths. Maybe the earthquake couldn't be prevented, but it is still a shame that so many people have to loose their homes, loved ones, and basic necessitates. Six hospitals have be destroyed while another two are left damaged; meaning people can not get the help that they need. While people are still struggling to find loved ones and getting medical attention they need, the Prime Minister says that he blames the Navy for not sounding the alarm for the tsunami that started the whole thing.

My Response:

Like everyone else I think that another earthquake, just soon after the earthquake in Haiti is horrible to hear about. At first when there was in earthquake in Haiti, I heard that the United States was doing so much to help out and at first I didn't think much of it. Then when I started hearing more and more about it on the news, I realized that these people need as much help as people could give. I just hope that people continue their support to the victims of this incident.
