Well, just DAYUM!! HOW MANY OF THOSE ASSHOLES WOULD NOT BE COMPLAINING IF THEY HAD LEFT WHEN THERE WAS A MANDATORY EVACUATION????

It's not just blacks, it's whitey, too. White people are just in the same dire straits as African Americans.

And BOTH races did not leave when they should have. Then the levies broke, which they never thought they would. People drowned because THEY DID NOT EVACUATE!!!

The day after the hurricane it did not appear that bad, but once those levies broke, it must have surprised the hell out of everyone down there.

Bridges and roads are out making it difficult, and the water is full of NASTY stuff. Didn't the mayor realize just how bad this hurricane was going to be? It was HUGE and destroyed a large area. How do they expect thousands of buses, food, water and supplies to be delivered *presto* like some friggin' magician to millions of people?

I refuse to believe that everybody that's been bitching and moaning on TV were all too poor to leave the city. I know the elderly and the people in the hospitals are in need, and I think they should have been helped first.

The LESSONS LEARNED from Hurricane Katrina should be interesting. I think we should just kiss New Orleans goodbye the next time they get hit with a hurricane.

They thought they would be lucky again. Doesn't anybody pay attention to weather down there???

Well they didn't exactly break at first -- Lake Pontchartrain, which had been swamped with a storm surge, slopped over them.
