"Maybe 2% were predators "

You are very naive or you have decided to ignore reality.

[cajungirl]

Butt out carburator!

[Travis McGee]

That's why I'm doing all I can to spread the damning forgotten buses pictures around.

They could have taken out 30,000 evacuees per trip.

[cajungirl]

Oh my, I meant you werre a BMW trunk latch, so much better than the other trunk latches.

Would you feel better if I said you were a hood ornament?

[Archidamus]

He is the John Wayne dude the Mayor referred to admiringly, is he not?

I am glad that you have reported that we have turned the corner. Thank God!

[Petronski]

"Nazi" is an ideology. People chose to behave certain ways based on that ideology.


"Black" is a question of melatonin.

"Criminal" is the word you're looking for, not black. "Criminal," like "nazi," is an ideology--a choice to behave in certain ways.

The guilty are criminals. They might also be black. They are not criminals because they are black.

Excuse me but, that's awful. There is no excuse for language like that especially from a man claiming to read the Holy Bible. It does nothing for his character to use such language when talking about things of God. He's just a man and through the grace of God only I sure hope he made it to heaven.

[Riley]

I'd see through it like a windshield.

[Archidamus]

It would be nice to see a copy of this article, since everything else contradicts it. The reference leaves a bit to be desired in terms of specifics.

[ladyjane]

I'm sure there's been some crime but it seems to me some of the media has been broadcasting hysteria and rumor.

If it makes you feel better to think that the stories coming out of NO are hysteria and rumor, well, bless your heart. You need to just keep thinking that.

[cajungirl]

I heard the doc on the medical team say he refused to go back as his life was in danger.

Enough for me. I think some attracted the gangsters and others didn't.

And good people were there. Cowed by the thugs.

[denydenydeny]

It's a great, gripping story--but it'll never be made into a movie, unless the roving gangs are transformed into skinheads.

[Archidamus]

Not really, since well over two percent of the world's population is black. The people in the dome were not typical of New Orleans nor typical of blacks, they were a subset of the black New Orleans population, that for many reasons were far less kind and far more aggressive than the typical black in New Orleans or else where.

[cajungirl]

Great pic. Spread it around.

[Bittersweetmd]

It isn't a race thing it is a cultural thing. My children go to a high school that is about 50% housing project. One of my son's classmates was robbed of his MP3 player. He chased the SOB's down and when he caught them, they threw him to the ground and proceeded to kick him in the head. They already had the upper hand and this kid was insane for doing what he did. But they KICKED HIM IN THE HEAD. They tried to kill him.

I know of 2 very similar situations in my city. The two kids were maimed for life. Almost murdered by a group/gang of kids from low income housing developments. This is not racist to say it is just one of the facts. The two events happened in two separate incidents.

[Windcatcher]

These gangs of animals must be hunted down and killed. There is no other solution.

"Animals" is the operative word here, and not just in the Superdome, either. I've had it with the thugs sniping at anyone tring to fix the problems in the city. I say the next time a building is identified as a source of snipers, an Apache attack helicopter is dispatched and the occupants given two minutes to come out with their hands up before the building is thoroughly strafed (I wouldn't waste a Hellfire on those creeps).

[Peach]

Why don't you read this account by a relief worker as related to her by someone in the Dome and tell us all how those kids are liars.

You sound demented.

Sad that it takes these foreigners to show us how Americans SHOULD have acted in a crisis.



Bless the Aussies!

Mr Hopes, 32, said: "That was the worst place in the universe. Ninety-eight per cent of the people around the world are good. In that place, 98 per cent of the people were bad.

Yep, and guess what? They're now warm and snug in the Astrodome, plotting their next outrages.

Look for crime spikes all around Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Missouri and Mississippi.

The more I read, the more I think this hurricane was a cleansing rather than a disaster.

[Jeff Chandler]

Patton was a vulgar man. He was also cultured and educated.

I don't use that kind of language myself, but I am not going to presume to judge Patton on the basis of his cruder aspects, when he was so instrumental in the eradication of one of mankind's greatest evils.
