You're being disgusting lady, these are fellow americans who've lost everything. I think Dallas and Texas will NOT have anarchy since the CCW holders and police keep crime down. Second thing, who gives a damn about a sports arena if it can help transition 20,000 saved lives? The owners will get paid and WILL clean it up.
To all you fellow FReepers, thanks for attacking me the way you all have on this thread.
Does it make you feel superior?
Does it make you feel holier than thou?
What about you who cussed at me, or said they wouldn't breath the same air as me?
Do you all feel better now???
I had good reasons for being concerned and I will post articles I have read elsewhere that will state why MY CONCERNS WERE VALID!
What was said about all this when my fellow FReepers and my Fellow Texas neighbors attack ME I have done nothing except to voice my concerns for my family due to the articles that stated what these people were doing.
Of all the time I have posted here I have never been cussed at nor have I been attacked like this, and I AM NOT the enemy here. As I am refered to as "listen lady" like I was some horrid something or another....
We all are stressed yes but what's happened to me on this thread is less than pathetic!
Not that I owe any of you a explanation but following are
articles that heightened my fears and concerns, I didn't realize I couldnt have fears and concerns, "Judge NOT lest ye be judged"!
The MURDERS, RAPES and BEATINGS IN THE SUPERDOME IN LA was NOT because of the horrid conditions because if that were the case why were the good people of MS and AL NOT act like animals?? AND these people were in the SUPERDOME and were being transported to the ASTRODOME!!
As was obvious and reported by the HOUSTON POLICE CHIEF:
"Arrivals were being searched for weapons. Capt. John Anderson of the Houston Police Department’s homeland security division said police had found six pistols and about a dozen knives this morning"
SIX PISTOLS AND DOZEN KNIVES!!!!!!(Brought to the astrodome)
And following are yet more articles about the people in the superdome:
"A worker in the superdome said that she was ROBBED of all her belongings down to her shoes"
A worker there was robbed.
Than this first hand acct:

Tourist tells of 'murder and rape'
Kevin Meade and D.D. McNicoll
September 03, 2005
AN Australian backpacker stranded in New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina has told his parents he witnessed horrific scenes while sheltering in the city's Superdome, including murders, rapes and stabbings."
The people who were sheltered there>
Than here is the other side, Good people of AL and MS were under horrific conditions and did not murder, rape and stab their own:
"So begins the journey to the end of the earth - or at least the town of Biloxi on the US Gulf Coast. Largely ignored by the media in favour of New Orleans, Biloxi suffered the full wrath of hurricane Katrina, and may never recover from the devastation.
It is now a town without electricity, mobile phone reception, landlines, food, petrol and water, or even any recognisable architecture.
evertheless, Ms Punzo continued to smile and chat to emergency workers. "Well, baby, here in the South we've been through this kind of thing before," she said.
"We just clean up and get on with it. I know God will take care of me."
The Times"
So before you judge me and my concerns and my posts and cuss and swear and all the rest look at the whole situation.
You all have disappointed me but there are some very nice and good people who post here as is Jim for allowing us a place to gather and share, you haven't chased me away but I would have expected this from DU not people I considered my friends.
