,Banning FEMA trailers is the right thing to do.
FEMA was criticized after the slow response to [[Hurricane Katrina]].

In May of 2011, tornadoes struck Cordova, Alabama, rendering many residents homeless. FEMA attempted to send single-wide trailers to house the homeless. As a result, Mayor Jack Scott enforced a local ordnance passed in 1957 to ban FEMA trailers from the city limits.
["We're trying to better Cordova," he said. "We're trying to clean up Cordova and keep it clean. We're trying to keep the property values up. We're trying to get it to where people will want to build homes on these vacant lots."][http://www2.wsav.com/blogs/weather-she-wrote/2011/jun/03/fema-trailers-banned-alabama-town-hit-tornadoes-ar-1925669/].
Liberals protested through the liberal-controlled media, but by enforcing the ordnance, Scott diverted a scourge of dependence on the federal government that has infested New Orleans since Katrina.
