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....

Actually I heard from a FEMA emergency manager, in the floods in the southeast a few years ago (I can't remember which hurricane), she says that they reported different numbers of dead intentionally so that the count was much lower than actual count.

I believe it. And I'm sure they justified the lie to themselves.

I remember watching a talking head show on a Sunday morning a few years back. The editor of a NY newspaper or magazine was a panel guest. The pompous a$$ stated that they regularly edit news because the American public couldn't handle the truth.

He has seen the bodies coming in,he has seen them in trees,in cars, in homes,under rubble...washing in the water. OBVIOUSLY he is not the ONLY person working down there.

Then why is this the only report anywhere? After a half-day, confirming reports should be surfacing. And yet, only this one lone report has come in anywhere.

I have seen pictures of dead Iraqi Shiites who were victims of the stampede that occurred only today, all morning long. After all these days I have yet to see one picture of a dead victim of Katrina. Some type of suppression of this type of image by the MSM must be operative or we have many many incompetent tele journalists.

That's a bit more of a complex discussion than I have time for.

Suffice it to say your stereotypic, lopsided explanation of Biblical reality is grossly lacking from my perspective.

Check out Daniel 9-12; Ezekiel; Revelation and even Mat 24.

Evidently God disagrees with you.

Well, Biloxi officials have stated that only about 1/3 of that town evacuated. So, if they are 100% low, that still means there were several thousand people in town when it rolled through. And ALL of Biloxi is coastal.

Actually why are they black?? Would they not paint them blue or white on the bottom so you could not see them during the day spying on us??

There are many reasons why G_d allows people to die from natural disasters.

And you don't know any of them, so stop pretending that you do.

Foremost (to me, anyways) is that the innocent, and the G_dly MUST suffer along with the sinful, in order that the sinful can know that G_d is JUST!

Oh, yeah, punishing the innocent along with the guilty is practically the definition of "just". (rolls eyes)

You CHOOSE to deny that what you experience and enjoy daily, is only through His grace.

You are full of bovine excrement, and have no idea what I think or believe.

I'm certain that G_d has something interesting awaiting your triggering it.

That's quite a God you believe in. Thankfully, mine is nowhere near as childish, petty and vindictive as yours.

Frankly, I find your comment disgusting. I don't consider gloating about the misery of others -- be it actual or speculated -- to be godly behavior.

Bad things happen. I don't blame God for them. And I don't blame the victims for them.

After all, G_od only knows His purpose, and His plan.

Which is precisely why you should shut your piehole and stop pretending that you have a clue.

listening to Glenn Beck...father has called in who has a dtr in lock up in jefferson parish (?)...she is afraid they might not make it out alive....looters have sniper weaponry and are fighting off any help arriving...protecting their jewelry store turf....glenn has him on hold now...I am so sad that our society is like this...there IS no excuse...none...If thugs keep help out...then perhaps..these thugs need to be eliminated. I cannot believe I am saying this..I know they are desparate people too...but to KILL others in a situtation like this...to do this...takes a total lack of conscience. Total.

Am far, far, far, far, far from a troll.

Whether you will ever see or understand the basic realities in this life remains to be seen.

I do not know of any 24 hour news outlet that showed any dead bodies from the tsunami within the 24 hours. ANd you totally missed my point. I asked how many dead bodies could you see from the air in those two calamities, you said earlier that we should in this hurricane struck area.

"That says "hundreds"...doesn't confirm MFH's wild claim of "thousands"."



That's "hundreds" in Biloxi. You need to factor in Gulfport, Port St. Louis and the rest of Mississippi, not to mention Louisiana (and affected parts of Alabama and other states). I'd say this report is entirely consistent with an estimate of thousands of deaths.
