:tup: I totaly agree. They had plenty of warning, and didnt leave. They had busses taking people out…and didint leave. They lived in a city NEXT TO THE OCEAN BELOW SEA LEVEL!!! and are suprised they got whiped out by a storm (dee de de). They ignored warnings to build the proper protective berriers, then bitch because they get whiped out and blame other poeple for not careing about their ignorance. “we dont need no water let the motherfucker burn”! Oh, speaking of burning, Buffalo was destroyed by the indians back in the 1800s. 😛 ---

Natural dissasters are a part of life. You get hit by one you have two options, leave or rebuild and be stronger. I say rebuild, we will be stronger for it as a nation. ---

I disagree, it is going to happen again, just a matter of time. Live and learn, move to a new location. there is plenty of space in the US. ---

> [@\_Karu\_](#): > > just curious… > > disclaimer: im not a racist > > what will happen if new orleans is full with white people and very small percentage of blacks during that storm? Depends, are we talking about smart white people or dumb white people? There were smart white people in New Orleans, and smart black people too… they were the ones in Dallas by the time the storm hit. The problem was there were a whole lot more poor dumb black people, who figured that because they made it through other storms that they would be fine. They ignorantly ignored all the experts saying this was going to be the big one, followed their token black mayor who sat on his hands until it was too late, and suffered the consquences. 24 hours before the storm hit the mayor was already in blame mode, saying it was the government’s fault for not getting enough charter buses down there, while the cities entire fleet of school buses sat unused, most to be later destroyed by the floods. And you can’t compare NO to any of the other coastal cities, because unlike other cities NO is surrounded on 3 sides by water, not just one coast. So instead of the first few hundred feet of land being under water the entire city ends up under water. EDIT: And there is another hurricane brewing right now, heading for the gulf. I hope it goes to NO because I’d rather see it hit something that is already mostly destroyed than hit somewhere else. Besides that, it may help win more people over to the “lets just say the hell with this place” side of the arguement. ---

i see, i see… its true, there are dumb black people who were warned but still don’t want to get away… how about normal black people with no money to get out of town? it appears that all the smart people, white or black…they fled the city looooong before the storm hit the town…they knew what’s gonna happen, they got the money, and they fled, right? i know there are busses…but they probably heard how miserable the traffic was and decided not to go? dumb white people…err…i guess that’s pretty obvious, even if they have money, they just won’t fled the city cos’ they want to guard their property…(stupid) anywho… what i was (actually) asking: will the government treat the WHOLE new orleans-hit-by-katrina situation differently, IF New Orleans was governed by a white major and filled with 95% white people? (im asking this cos’ i heard how the goverment **intentionally** didn’t handled the whole situation they way it’s supposed to be…cos’ its a “black city” anyway) lmao.
