New Orleans is providing 700 buses to evacuate the elderly, the sick and anyone lacking transportation ahead of Hurricane Gustav. The city is expected to be hit some time early next week and officials are warning they will not open shelters.

Officials are going street to street with bullhorns announcing the decision as a way of reaching all citizens. They will also institute a curfew that will lead to anyone on the street after a mandatory evacuation order being arrested.

I have not stalked you anywhere. I do, however, notice that you are quite emotional.

It’s difficult, but I’ll keep praying for you.

[Petronski]

First perhaps you should repent of your false witness.

[Between the Lines]

So now you are stalking me off of the religion boards? Have you considered getting professional help?

ROTFLMHO You two make for great entertainment. I see y'all have decided to take your show on the road into other forums.

Last time a hurricane hit New Orleans, FR was littered with racist comments. At the time, some of us complained bitterly about it.

Now history repeats itself, and to deflect the attention my comment drew, I’m falsely accused of stalking.

May your community be blessed with New Orleans refugees this time.

Best thing you could do—for yourself—is have your post #17 deleted.

[PAR35]

You think it violates the posting guidelines, hit the abuse button.

[Petronski]

I don’t think it violates the posting guidelines.

I think it is—and should be—tremendously embarrassing to you.

Do you even know how many hip-hop stations there are in New Orleans, or their ratings?

The number 1 station in New Orleans, 12+, is WQUE.

And WQUE - Q93, promotes itself as ‘The most Hip Hop and R&B’.

So go play your race card somewhere else. Michelle Obama will probably have need of your services. And enjoy some music while you do so. http://www.radioblack.com/Louisiana.html

"New Orleans is providing 700 buses to evacuate the elderly, the sick and anyone lacking transportation ahead of Hurricane Gustav"

And yet some are still dragging thier feet because they dont have transportation. If they are providing you with FREE transportation, then GET OUT! What is so hard to understand?
