Astonishing Exclusive From Mississippi [hundreds if not thousands dead]
Paramedic Rescue Operation | 8-31-05 | My Favorite Headache

Posted on 08/30/2005 10:10:45 PM PDT by My Favorite Headache

It is with heavy heart I write this...

I have finally reconnected with my best friend who is a paramedic who was sent from Georgia 2 days ago to Gulf Port, Mississippi before the hurricane hit.

He just reached me within the last 10 mins via emergency cell phone to tell me he was alive.

Thousands of bodies have been discovered throughout Mississippi in Gulf Port, Waveland,Hancock County,Bay of St.Louis.

They are hanging in trees and they are pulling them out 30 at a time. Entire families found drowned in their homes and washing up on shore.

The stories he could tell me were brief. National Guard is on the scene and arresting anyone seen on the streets.

The numbers are staggering and what I have been told tonight will shake people to their foundation as the numbers will be coming out in the next 24-hours of just how many people have actually perished in these and 3 other beach communities.

More to follow....

You signed up to criticize us for criticizing each other? Whatever.

Maybe your intentions are good, but signing up to moderate our discussion is silly.

"The puppet masters are eagerly looking forward to putting the whole USA under martial law as soon as they can help create enough excuse/need. "

LOL, um..... It would appear you are slightly paranoid. Besides, it's the black helicopters that will ruin your day. LOL

I agree with you. I haven't posted to any of these threads either because I have been appalled at the lack of civility. If you question anyone, disagree about something that was said or anything that does not go along with what the majority of people think you are immediately attacked.

I've been at FR for about a year now and this is the worst I've felt about being here and I love FR.

My friend is serving in Kuwait with the airforce right now and is supposed to come home in two weeks. We haven't heard from his girlfriend yet. Their apartment was in Biloxi only about half a mile from the beach (we assume it's gone). Last we heard was that she went to work at the hospital. Their dog was in the apartment. This is terrible. I hope only the phones/cellphones are to blame and she will call any of us soon. Please keep them in your prayers. God bless!

"It looks like the whole area had no plan."

It's run by the liberal machine, they have no more a plan than a clue.

I tend to have a different bias.

I prefer to get the maximum info out and sort it through as I go along.

To me, it's somewhat like brain-storming. Even info in error can often lead to a better understanding of the whole picture--particularly after the initial input is refined.

If I trusted my friend, I'd certainly share it broadly.

The so-called "scientific" standard of so called "proof" has been over-sold and overly idolized for a long time to much hurt, imho. It has it's place. But not at the cost of hindering info and a lot of other things.

IT WAS the fringe groups; the plain flakey groups; the most disrespected groups that earliest and most accurately pegged Hitler for what he was, would become and would do.

Lives were saved by folks who received that info and perceptively thought about it and fled Germany in time.

Unless you put money into it or something I guess...

Boy did I open a can of worms...

I didn't mean to. Everyone ought to just calm down. My ears always perk up when I hear FReepers mentioned on National radio. I was just suprised that Hugh would accuse Headache of Fear Mongering and even of making it up in order to 'torture' people. I thought that was out of line.

If he had just said that people should be careful about posting uncorroborated news, then I would tend to agree.

I'm glad you asked that, because I was also wondering the same things.

His whole argument was the story was unsourced, and put on FR as gossip and rumor by a kooky person, but that simply isn't the case. He's saying his own or others anonymous sources are more credible than some anonymous source found through FR, because he says so. How arrogant, not to mention he's behind the curve by several hours.

Shesh.

Nonsense.

Though if you impugn a FReeper of longstanding reputation based soley on the lack of MSM verification, and your own conjectures you will.

Just build it and...let it "show up."

Yes. Overdue. Sadly so.

It just kind of gauls me to know that certain portions of the powers that be will be using this as a not-so-dry-run for the full court press of the whole country at some point--with very traitorous motives involved toward the world government.

Thankfully, I need to let that go more as God certainly has it all factored in and all under control.

Very good. I'd welcome you to FR but you didn't sign up until tomorrow.

Exactly, their plan everywhere was to get out. There had been talk for years about the levees, they knew this day would come for NO. The other areas are pure disaster regions, do you rebuild? It's not a gamble I would take after watching this.

I did see a report, near Biloxi, about a woman who had two disabled children and stayed but right before Katrina hit, she checked on her elderly neighbor to make sure she was as safe as possible.

Afterwords, the elderly neighbor survived but realized she hadn't heard from the mother...they found her and the two children in the house, drowned.

So, we do keep hearing that they haven't even begun to check the houses that are still standing, how many of those that were flooded have people inside that didn't survive?
