i cant even think about this hurricane without getting pissed off!

Pissed that we help so manyd amn countries in a time of need but none really seem to step forward to help us - last i heard 12 countries offered some help but i dont know which countries those were but where are the European countries if they are not on that list?

also maybe if we didnt spend so much on this damn war we would have some more money! sorryu i dont wanna make this political but like new orleans just dropped off the face of the planet it seems

Well, many have offered to help, but we havent responded to their offers apparently, because of the politics of the iraq war you know... if they dont support us in Iraq, we dont need their assistance.... Regardless, this situation has become DISGUSTING to me, because like Nat said, its as if the deep south fell off the face of the earth... No real efforts to bring food and water, no real efforts to transport people out of new orleans. In the superdome, they are assulting one another, women are REPEATEDLY getting raped, no food, no water, no bathrooms, ect... Mad looting... So where is the National Guard to help? Apparently, thanks to iraq, we dont have any soilders to help out here in the US anymore... I also hate to throw politics into this, but its become obvious that the iraq situation has now affected us in a way we never though, and off all places, home... There is insufficient armed forces here at home to provide for us in times of need... I still cannot fathom the fact that we KNEW this storm was going to be horrible, and when it wasnt as bad as expected, there STILL wasnt any real strong efforts to help... This news story just bothers me when I read it...

Yeah its insane. Its like anarchy down there and no one is doing anything about it. Where are the law enforcers and the government to help these people? It looks like a damn third world country. This is an embarrassment to the United States. We put so much effort into "helping the Iraqi people," yet we wont help our own? It is disgusting.

i honestly have never felt as if ther have been "real" problems with our country, until now... this situation is such a god damn disgrace its sad... nothing is being done to truely help people- and more and more people are dying as result... Where is the DRINKING WATER, let alone food? I almost feel as if i shouldent watch the news so i dont have to deal with being hurt and saddend by the latest headline....

Id like to ask EVERYONE to go donate to the redcross or some where to help the victims of Katrina! Even if its just 5 dollars!!

Im going to a bank where I can donate today and donating some money!

Edit:


Question:

If you were in that situation would you be looting?

The day after the hurricane when I heard people were jacking flat screen TV's I was thinking id probably be doing the same thing...but now seeing whats going on - I would be fearing for my life...I would be scared of anyone that came my way thinking they were gonna rape me! But yeah i would probably loot...but it wouldnt be material things...I would be looting food and water if i could find any



oh and what about women who are probably pregnant down there and giving birth??


Uhh i cant talk about this anymore i get too upset!!
