Ricky Gutierrez Quotations

But we had an aunt and uncle that came in Thursday before they were supposed to be allowed in, and the officers didn't even stop them, ... That really concerns me. No one is even checking to see if the people coming in are actually local residents.

We kept the windows down so we didn't need to use the air conditioner, so we had no problems with gas, ... But we saw long lines and fights at gas stations.

We have seen neighbors coming and then leaving, ... I think we are going to clean up today and go back to Magnolia. We don't want to stay here.

We traveled on (U.S.) 190 through Livingston and Huntsville,

There is already mold, ... There was one small window broken.

We left at 7 p.m. Thursday and had a hard time getting out of town. You couldn't even get on the highway, ... Then on (U.S.) 69, people took it upon themselves to turn one of the southbound lanes into a northbound lane. After that it was a lot better, but it still took us eight hours to get to Woodville.

It was wild. It felt like the end of the world. People were just walking around in the middle of the night and people were sleeping on top of cars. But we made it to Magnolia in 12 hours.
