Some 4 year olds would have frozen, and not been ready to handle a situation as this one, this is a smart child, that knew what to do, and because of her brave actions, her sister might come out of this because of her.

I see nothing politicial about this story, it is more human nature kicking in to save someone that you love.
That is all that one has to know to realize that she is a conservative(or will be).

While I think this is wonderful report, I just have to ask, had these children been saved by a dog, say, would you consider the dog a conservative?

Great story. Too bad you had to put your typical stupid anti-liberal slant on it.

What a piece of work you are.

That is the definition of what a prepared and self sufficient person does.

The 4 year old girl had the presence of mind to realize that her mother was dead and that she was in charge.

Liberals wouldn't understand.
That is not what a prepper is. Ironically, most decent people in the ghetto fit your definition of a prepper, and many preppers have fear and disgust towards people from the ghetto.

The story has no political slant, thanks for politicizing something apolitical.

To capitalize on this family's tragedy to score a political gotcha is digusting.

No that is not right, sorry to disapoint.

This is about a smart 4 year old girl, who kept her wits about her, and instincts kicked in, for her to do what was necessary, to save her sister. Nothing politicial about this at all or those of us posting.

So many children in her situation, would have frozen, and not known what to do, they would have panicked, but she did not and good for her and her sister.

Being prepared and sufficent has not one damn thing to do with anything politicial.
