Alright NOLA...

With two full days' notice, many decided they wanted to stay in their safe, bowl-shaped, flood-prone haven. Of course, the levee broke, flooding 80% of the city. But it's what happened in the days following that really angers me. The displaced people are now being referred to as "refugees", as if they're fleeing war-torn Somalia. These "refugees" have gone on looting sprees, but not only for useful necessities...oh no...that'd make sense...but instead they are stealing EVERYTHING! What the hell is a person with no home, no power, and no way to get these things going to do with a TV?! Seems that they've also been robbing gun dealers and using those guns to shoot at the FEMA rescue workers. These few assholes are ruining it for the rest of those misfortunate enough to be stranded in New Orleans! This has actually caused FEMA to discontinue rescue missions for the time being. Now it's been THREE DAYS since the hurricane hit. These people have been stranded without useable water and food for THREE FULL DAYS! If they don't get food and water quickly, I feel many, or perhaps all, of these people will soon be dead, as many have already.

Then again, at least our National Guard is busy in Iraq! Doing things that...well...really don't help us at all. The government fails the country again.

Now...I'm really tired...so it's back to bed I go...
