Guest guest Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 FEMA Asks Floridians to Give Back Aid Tue Oct 4, 4:12 PM ET The federal government is asking more than 7,600 Floridians in 60 counties to return $30.3 million in emergency hurricane aid dispensed last year when a record four hurricanes slammed the state. Most of the payments the Federal Emergency Management Agency wants back are because of insurance settlements reached after the government aid was doled out. By law, FEMA cannot duplicate insurance coverage, spokesman Jim Homstad said. The measure will mostly affect St. Lucie County, which was battered by Hurricanes Frances and Jeanne last year. Residents there are being asked to return $3.7 million. In Palm Beach County, FEMA is seeking nearly $3.4 million. In a small number of cases, FEMA wants to recoup money because of processing errors or duplicate approval of funds, Homstad said. FEMA has recouped more than $5 million of the money it is seeking. Officials said ti could take years to collect. http://news./s/ap/fema_recouping_aid & printer=1;_ylt=Ah5jLbyEw ioh0cFCaE4iJAB2wPIE;_ylu=X3oDMTA3MXN1bHE0BHNlYwN0bWE- RIGHT NOW in this new world order, RIGHT NOW no one is free RIGHT NOW Corporations own this world RIGHT NOW we are victems of thier greed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 5, 2005 Report Share Posted October 5, 2005 today, I heard on the radio that floridians are allowed to carry guns anywhere they want. including malls, restaurants, playgrounds basically anywhre including PUBS!! can you imagine after a few drinks, and an argument? also, you can shoot if you have reasonable fear, (like the person is bigger than you or something) and that would be considered self defense. , fraggle <EBbrewpunx@e...> wrote: > FEMA Asks Floridians to Give Back Aid > Tue Oct 4, 4:12 PM ET > > > > The federal government is asking more than 7,600 Floridians in 60 > counties to return $30.3 million in emergency hurricane aid dispensed > last year when a record four hurricanes slammed the state. > > Most of the payments the Federal Emergency Management Agency wants > back are because of insurance settlements reached after the > government aid was doled out.

Guest guest Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Hi Peter > Wouldnt be surpised................right to bear arms and all. You know, I'm convinced that this was a simple spelling error that has led to a huge misunderstanding. I'm sure it's meant to be the right to bare arms. In other words, people are allowed to wear short sleeved shirts whenever they want. :-) BB Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
