Word has it this was caused by Global Warming which is the result of ultra Conservative Right Wingers using their Natural Gas stoves to cook. Note, at the time this picture was taken, thanks to the discovery of the Monroe Gas Field near Speaker, Louisiana, it was reputed to the be the largest natural gas field in the World and Monroe, Louisiana was known at the time as the Natural Gas Capital of the World. So, I suppose it all makes sense.
So, we need ole Mr. Smith to indict Former President Donald Trump for causing this flood.
Probably also get him for the Great Flood of 1927. During the 1927 flood, it was said that one could take a boat from Bayou DeSaird (in Monroe) and go all the way to the Mississippi River, without ever touching dry ground. Which is a distance of about 80 miles. I grew up on that Bayou and its banks are the highest ground in and around Monroe. However, just east was the Chauvin Swamp, where, when not on or in the bayou, I could be found with my .22 looking for various critters and varmints to shoot.
