New Orleans = Falluja on the Bayou

May I just say before this thread is pulled, that your post made me LMAO! In a heartbreaking way, of course. The Bayoulluja assault.

I think of God's judgement on America. We deserve it, unhappily.

"We will do what it takes to bring law and order to our area," Gov. Kathleen Blanco told reporters.

"I'm furious. It's intolerable," she said of the growing crime wave.

US governor begs people to leave flood-hit New Orleans

"A "furious" Blanco also warned that the city's stretched police officers would clear affected areas of looters. "We beg the people to get out." she said.

What happens in Miami when the next Category 3 aims for that city? Will there be a panic. Will they know enough to understand that N.O. is in a bowl? Will there be looting and mayhem there, too?

This is an ugly precedent.

Are ya'll misunderstanding these poor misunderstood people? They have worked hard the last couple of days stealing everything that is not nailed down, and they do not want to leave their new found wealth.

We are so inconsiderate, we will not let them load it on the buses as they leave for Texas.

Hey Ricky Boy, we have taken enough, give the rest to DC, they will feel much more at home there.

"Hey everybody, just think .............
These people were NOT in jail when all this started.
Does it make you wonder what the people in jail were like?
Does anybody ever want to visit NO again? I say level it--it is below sea level anyway.
Screw that place."

The Navy will be there soon, round the thugs up and let the shelling begin.

It's close to anarchy in places. Total free for all and now the gas companies are joining in and participating in larceny.

Of course you don't see "much good." That's because the good people are not making the news. Fool.

so are you saying its not ok to loot food and water in this situation?

That's EXACTLY what is being said. Some on here want to see blood just because the police and military have weapons that can be used. It's a shame.

This thread is quite likely to be pulled shortly because I can't quite remove all the racist and "nuke the city" comments as fast you're making them.

The Admin Mods sure make it look easy, don't they?
Well, with a little more practice, I'm sure you'll get the hang of it.
But thanks for pitching in and helping them out.

That's worth a try, but I don't think it's going to work. I think a lot of these guys will fight to the death. It's like a real life version of Grand Theft Auto.

Yea, well give everyone who wants to get out 24 hours and and then blow the rest of the levies.

At a walking/wading speed of, let's say, 3 mph, those people could easily have walked out of the city by now. They really are a bunch of selfish types that believe they will be looked after by someone else and thay don't have to do a thing for themselves. A subset of this cultural sewer believes they can do whatever they want ang get whatever they want through violence and intimidation. I cannot use the expressions and words that are appropriate because I don't want to get banned from this forum.

Your post represents the worst of humanity, as morally repugnant as the worst of looters.

I am continually amazed at the trash that rises to the surface of this forum. Thank goodness you don't in any way represent anything but a small subset of fools.

"...A white rider van with armed African-Americans pulled up and said "F the police" and they next heard a gun shot...."

I'd say that the white rider van would make an excellent target for an RPG.

Could be Muzzies down there, you know. If they are recruiting in jails, big time, surely some of these insurgents have spent time in jail recently. Could have been recruited? It's happened in Los Angeles.
