"I mean, it's horrible. There's no running water. There's no power. They are having to use the restroom in buckets and bags."
"It's like a bunch of savages on there," he added. "If you get on the blogs, they're saying that people are fighting over food and stuff."
Toby Barlow told CNN that his wife, Ann, a passenger on the ship, texted that the plumbing failed and people were defecating in bags and urinating in showers.
She also told him there's "sewage running down the walls and floors," he said.

[ “She was crying ... and she just wants off of the ship,” Nutt said. “I mean, it’s horrible. There’s no running water. There’s no power. They are having to use the restroom in buckets and bags.” “It’s like a bunch of savages on there,” he added. “If you get on the blogs, they’re saying that people are fighting over food and stuff.”]
The current state of mind of people now a days - that being, Everyone owes me right now - I’m first - screw everyone else...
The liberals sure have done a great job mastering the complete overhaul of values that once dominated the US to where a scene like this would never have happened...wait until the financial collapse...it will be like Resident Evil - and it’s not the zombies - but the individual scum bags that will take to the streets...
The hell with gold - storage of food and ammo is the only commodity that will be worth the price of life!
Carnival Cruises are notorious for attracting the worst white trash around. This is also isn’t the first time this has happened.
Yeah, I’m sure all news outlets check the donation records of every company involved in every story before they print. They are all in on it right?
Assuming you aren’t trolling, posts like this make this place seem full of whackos. Stop please.
Trolling....you’re the newbie, since yesterday.
Who is trolling. I’m a monthly donor and have been for a number of years.
I suggest you watch out for the ZOT!
LOL! Your ability to look on the bright side is indeed finely honed...

“Carnival Cruises are notorious for attracting the worst white trash around. This is also isn’t the first time this has happened.”
And Carnival isn’ alone! Just ask yourself why you would ever “sail” on a ship that was registered in LIberia or Panama? It’s to get around the cost of US crews and more importantly, US inspections. Personally I wouldn’t take a cruise on any of them. They are accidents waiting to happen! When the $hit hits the fan, they become floating ghettos.
why have they not taken passengers OFF the same way ???

The ‘small print’ in the contract says NO REFUNDS if you remain aboard.
Agreed. Have been on many cruises and the food and conditions just keep getting worse.
The last cruise I contracted norovirus and was in my stateroom for four days straight until it went away. Nothing like paying to get sick!

You just joined “this place” yesterday and you are telling Freepers to stop? Suggest you are the whacko and you leave this forum and go elsewhere.
I remember some FR threads where this is the typical aftermath of a "gay cruise".
Ozone fills the air...
I am not fond of any place where I have to depend upon someone else for a)personal safety and I can’t personally defend myself b)food and shelter c)and where I can’t simply walk away. I’d be more paranoid than a General worried about the contamination of his precious body fluids.
Thanks for the support....:)
You have been here ONE DAY and you are telling FReepers how to post?
It is you n00bies that make FR look bad.
really?
thought i smelled ozone - nice catch - high fives bro
I imagine the potential liability for at-sea transfers of that number of people would be an unacceptable risk.
Maybe Carnival will give them a discount for a future cruise.
Rather novel that you chose the handle of ‘Comment_Police’ as you’ve embarked on your new career of being a FR moderator.
Naturally, the real moderators know about your self-appointed mission to make FR safe from inappropriate comments?
