Carland Baker, Sr. on the site of his former townhouse, Longwood Apartments, 2012 2nd St, Long Beach, MS.

“Nothing like this has ever happened in America. I mean, to have a house completely wiped off the foundation. You don’t even see a refrigerator. You don’t see a stove. You don’t see a bathtub. It’s a clean, level slate. It’s just unbelievable. And everybody now is walking around traumatized. Because they can’t believe it.” (Gayle Tart, attorney and resident of Gulfport, MS)
