NO ONE could have foreseen the fury of this storm..
A Cat 5 Huricane roaring inland should of been reason enough to move north

As someone so succinctly put it on Hugh Hewitt last night, this is what you get for years of government hand-outs.

Crack vials littered a restroom. Blood stained the walls next to vending machines smashed by teenagers. While there are innocent people suffering, it looks like that place has more than its share of thugs. And that group of people will destroy any place they are put up.

Pardon my posting this comment. I have two threads open and this was the wrong one.

After years of living off the "Check" and other social
programs alot of these folks have no idea how to care
for their families.

I think that the "refugees" are (for the most part) WIC, AFDC, etc, dependent persons who now get to rely upon more gubmint handouts....a permanent underclass maintained by the govt.
And to think some people despise illegals who put their children on the school bus to get an education while they work their a??es off all day.
These 'citizens' had an opportunity to board busses headed out of the city for safety and didn't take it. They could have at least gotten their children out.

This disaster is bringing out the best and the worst in people. My thoughts and prayers are for the innocent and goodhearted ones who are trapped and for those who are doing everything they can to help them.
It is difficult to comprehend the real extent of this horror and sickening to see the small percentage of people terrorizing their fellow citizens and hampering the rescue efforts. We can't let the evil actions of this group cause us to harden our hearts to the suffering of the innocents.
Blessed are they who show mercy: mercy shall be theirs.

I stand corrected, and you are also correct. What I meant was, a breech of the levies the day after the storm wasn't expected. All indications were that N'Awlins had dodged the bullet.

Whoa! What is so wrong with what he pointed out?
You're the one who sounds like you can't handle the reality of how bad people (society) have become...

I am amazed full on rioting has not broken out. I think it can only be credited to the skills of the National Guard working in the Superdome who obviously are calming and controlling an unruly desperate army of refugees.

At least two people, including a child, have been raped Motherf'ing monsters.

It doesn't happen elsewhere, why should NO be an exception?

It's horrible, the locals are held in intolerable conditions, they show their hatred of us by looting, setting fires, shooting their police even firing upon our helicopters on mercy missions.
Get out of Iraq New Orleans NOW.
