Very good lesson to learn....nobody is coming to save you. Do what you can to save yourselves and each other.

Prayers for the people of Puerto Rico. Hope they get electric on soon. Working together gets it done. FEMA needs to get there.

Thank you for your continued support David.

The bridge is symbolic of the disdain for the masses outside the beltway.
Why be afraid to point the finger; an ounce of criticism is worth a pound of cure.

Puerto Rico is the USA, hopefully things will normalize soon and we got to help them.

in 2018 a 690 ft section of a bridge in Genoa (Italy) collapsed as part of a 3878 ft bridge. In 2020, less then 2 years after the collapse, the complete bridge has been rebuilt. No temporary bridge of sourts. Just a high quality birdge to replace the old one.

Maybe the US can catch up the abilities of Italy for Puerto Rico

GOVERNOR AND GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS ARE NOT DOING THEIR JOB HERE IN PUERTO RICO. ON TOP OF THAT LUMA, THE ELECTRIC COMPANY HAS MULTIPLE EMPLOYEES THAT HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEIR DOING. THEY ARE ALSO NOT WORKING OVERNIGHT.

So glad that this time the storm got less winds to have cell service as hopefully it can speed up restoration.

Puerto Rico should be independent country

[soniacuevas]

Help, Luma power is very slow restoring power. We are suffocating, the heat is unbearable.

[lissarodrigues]

Don't loose hope! Puertoricans are courageous people! Help one another until the real help comes 🙏. We all going through something one way or the other. You can do it. Love you country ❤️! At least you have one. God bless Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 and ✝️ 🙏 his people 🙏 🙌 ❤️.

[rhondah]

These are our fellow Americans. I hope FEMA gets there soon to help these people. They can only do so much for themselves.

[hhgavun]

Hot, sweaty, irritated.... I can imagine the feeling.

[TheNilda]

I hate the way the news portray Puerto Rico, specially this guy... they always show the bad side of the island. The news think they are helping by reporting only bad news about the island.
