Guest oldschooler Posted September 4, 2005 Report Share Posted September 4, 2005 This thread makes me sick. Why don`t you think for a minute... If New Orleans was predominatley white... Would it still have been shaped like a bowl ? Would the hurricane still have hit ? Would the levee still have broke ? Would the police still have walked off their jobs ? Would the rescue workers still have gotten shot at ? THOSE are the things that turned a disaster into a catastrophe ! NOT race, religion or economic class... My God...some people act like they`re the victims of air... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooky Posted September 4, 2005 Report Share Posted September 4, 2005 BJ, you're such a dipshit. When are you going to stop letting your hatred for the president get in the way of rational thought. People wouldn't see you as such a joke on here if you were even a tad objective sometimes. You barely make any freaking sense, but I guess that's Bush fault too. I've seen a lot of footage of black people sitting around with signs that ask when the government is going to help them. That should speak volumes there. It seems that most people down there were either looting or sitting on their asses waiting for someone to come down and help. You didn't see shit like that after the tsunami.

[quote]In fact, the federal government has been working with state and local officials in the region since the late 1960s on major hurricane and flood relief efforts. When flooding from a massive rainstorm in May 1995 killed six people, Congress authorized the Southeast Louisiana Urban Flood Control Project, or SELA. [b]Over the next 10 years,the Army Corps of Engineers, tasked with carrying out SELA, spent $430 million on shoring up levees and building pumping stations, with $50 million in local aid. But at least $250 million in crucial projects remained[/b]...[/quote] It`s actually from an op-ed article that blames Bush for it all. [url="http://www.mediainfo.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1001051313"]http://www.mediainfo.com/eandp/news/articl...t_id=1001051313[/url] Anyway The State of Louisiana, the Parrish of Orleans and the City of New Orleans had the ability and wherewithal to fund their own flood control systems. Where was their plan? What actions did they take ? Why should the taxpayers of Ohio and Tennessee, as examples, pay for flood control in New Orleans? Do the people of New Orleans pay for the sewer systems in Cincinnati and Nashville ? We funded OVER half of it. The people of New Orleans City/Parrish and the State of Louisiana could have easily picked up the rest. We spent more than $250 million building a fucking football stadium...but they couldn`t spend that much to keep their bowl from being drowned ? Anyway I`d say that $430 million spent on "suring" up levess is far from you dumbass claim that it didn`t break and was incomplete. And that has NOTHING to do with race....keep reaching.

Hooky Posted September 4, 2005 Report Share Posted September 4, 2005 The people I saw were on the street corner. I t just seems like nobody is pulling together, it's just everyone for themselves. I'm still waiting for someone to take shots at the Louisiana government. But why be diverted from another golden opportunity to attack Bush. The democrats with help from the media instantly linked the hurricane and it's aftermath to Bush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlackJesus Posted September 4, 2005 Report Share Posted September 4, 2005 [i][b]Hooky you might have seen them on a corner... but for the most part to get out they would have to swim I can guarantee it... many of them are on Highway ramps above the water... but they would have to swim once they got off.... also the Natl Guard is making them all wait to leave the city because they don't want migrations of people into neighboring areas which are full of people.....
