It could of been 100 times worse if nearly the whole town left in school buses. The navigation of Norleans interstates and routes suck ass. The wind damage was severe and would have toppled the buses into many water areas. That whole location is a fucking joke, Live in a bath tub for all i care. ---

anyone that thinks that taking a week to get federal help to N.O. is crazy. We had the 82nd airborne in Sri Lanka in less than 24 hours after the tsunami. But we cant get aid to one of our own major cities, even after all of this “preparedness” we’ve been accomplishing due to the 9/11 attacks. Our government is a fucking joke. ---

Well duh… The 82nd Airborne can deploy anywhere around the globe in less than 18 hours. And oh by the way I can’t take you up on your offer of a ticket to Berkley. I refuse to use made in China switches for the detonator on my suicide bomber suit. It wouldn’t do any good anyways. Shortly after the US government rounded up all the suspected terrorists in the Taliban, several people living in California offered to board them instead of sending them to the prison. Fuckers… ---

The Army Corps of Engineers built the levees and stated they would only withstand a category 3 hurricane. Katrina came and broke them, a category 4 hurricane.

We’re 10 Trillion in debt, bailing people out who choose to put themselves in harm’s way is not the job of the federal government. We subsidized those people’s insurance with our rates for decades, now the companies got smart, raised coastal rates and stopped issuing policies in many areas.
