Disaster Quote by Johnny Luckett
“At this time of horrific disaster, the great people of Japan still peacefully endure. Riots, looting, or gouging of prices are nonexistent. This truly is a testament to honor and civilized behavior. With that said, I must also ponder upon another lesson learned, and that's the lack of nuclear preparedness by the Japanese government and International community. It's shocking that a power outage caused the current nuclear crisis. If we are to use this form of energy, let it be safe at all times. We must now continue to love and show the people of Japan that we are as one with them in this time of sorrow. Let us collectively learn from our mistakes, never to repeat them. - Johnny Luckett”
