Watching the media coverage in Minnesota made me feel so sad. A bad gut feeling that couldn\'t go away. I remember the media reporting how a huge number of people lost their homes and some were on top of their roof waiting to be saved. They also reported how everyone had to go into that \"arena\" to wait on rides to leave. Some people in the \"arena\" were raped and very sick. That made me angry to know that some people lost their homes then to later get rape. Something I would never thought of happening when a large group of people are going through the same situation. Also when the the media reported how gas stations would purposely raise their gas prices knowing that the next gas station wasn\'t working, was disappointing. I didn\'t know if the media was telling the whole truth, but the media was one of the biggest resource that gave me information.
