THINK OF THE CHILDREN. This is just common sense. You cant have a campsite in a flood zone without warning sirens. Ridiculous.

My heart breaks for these families. It is absolutely unacceptable that people are still camping there without any real warning system in place. Fix it now.

This tragedy never should have happened in the first place. Put the warning systems in or shut it down permanently.
