I have to work for a living. My rights have been violated.
“There are a lot of people who feel that their rights have been violated,” Asanté said Friday afternoon.
I AGREE, JUST ASK GUN OWNERS...
“Also, we’re keeping copies so that we can collect data to track the kinds of complaints for possible legal action down the road,” he said.
I'm not commenting any further....
I was down in Baker for 3 weeks last September. Bethany Church in Baker took in over 500 refugees and by November had them all gone. My parents' church in Zachary took in over 100 and through gentle encouragement they helped every one move out of the church sanctuary into places of their own. They were given help and support to find jobs and apartments in Baton Rouge or move in with family members. One of the most moving events that you will never hear about on TV that I personally witnessed was seeing some of the young boys that had that arrogant, thug, pants-so-low-you-can-see-underwear look, come into the church on Sunday. We may never know what good will come of this. Of course, every liberal group from the ACLU on down threw the biggest fit and no church that I was aware of received a penny of government money to help pay for their charity work. It also helps that these people were sleeping on cots in a church auditorium instead of living in their own furnished trailer.
I remember some years ago I saw an article about the problem of trash/garbage in the Cabrini - Green(sp) projects in Chicago because no-one would take out their trash/garbage from their apartment. The solution: pay them to take out their own garbage.
The good folks among the displaced have been trying to get their lives back together; the rest have been sitting back waiting for the government to do something for them.
Those who have been actively trying should get first preference in any aid program; the others (able but unwilling) need "tough love" in the form of required work for benefits.
Give a liberal a fish and you'll feed him for a day.
Teach a liberal to fish, and he'll demand free chow for a year.
I think I just found a new tag line.
Trust me, with the help of the NAALCP and others, they're already planning which entitlement program they'll be moving onto once they've exhausted the "rights" they they're receiving now.
These folks are professional victims, and that big Sugar Daddy in D.C. has taken care of them all their lives, and will for the duration of their lives.
If these folks had the habit of planning and preparing, they wouldn't be squatting in these trailers in the first place. The passivity and fatalism of the underclass is literally an alien kind of mentality to most of us who are at least reasonably functional. What we saw on TV during Katrina was a glimpse of a different world, and these are the denizens of that world.
I think you're on to something.

Give a liberal a fish and you'll feed him for a day hear them complain it contains mercury and other toxins.
Teach a liberal to fish, and he'll demand free chow for a year rail against eco-destruction, species endangerment, and the rape of Mother Earth's resources.
That seems more likely. Posting HTML
Victims waiting for payday.
Ahhh socialists doing what they do best.....whining and suing.
They need to demonstrate like the illegals for their rights.
Gosh haven't they learned anything from the other freeloaders who consider America their pinata and their cash cow?
Oh yes and lets not forget the illegals lovely little anchors who are weighing down all Americans.
My husband talked to a friend in South Louisiana yesterday. The guy is trying to find someone to pick his strawberry crop, paying $8.75/hour plus providing a place to live and 2 meals a day. Printed up flyers and distributed them. No takers.
Until the day there are more bloodsuckers than blood donors. Then we're going to be literal tax-slaves.
