I know why but I wont say.

Looks like an armed population isn't all that helpful for rescue operations. hehe.

Foamy the squirel on Huricane Katrina

It's pretty fascinating that a lot of the looters are stealing stuff they can't do shit with atm (electrical apparel). Maybe they're deluded by the focus on wealth in our societies, dunno.


I know a lot of ppl won't agree with me, but the gun possession is probably responsible for a lot of crap atm. If it's really true that there are armed gangs going around raping, looting and whatnot then that doesn't even need explaining. Sure, you can round up gangs to do that in a society where guns aren't that present too, but the threat would be very much diminished. Anyway, idiots will be idiots of course, but idiots with guns are even worse.


@ Shiny: yeah, your stepmom is way off there...a lot of countries are offering their help, of course. Canada, Russia, Thailand, the EU, European countries on their own, you name it. And they've been doing so since the hurricane struck, Bush didn't think foreign help would be necessary a week ago. I hope she understands that disagreeing with something like Iraq is not the same as letting ppl starve and die after a natural disaster.

just fyi, it's been proven in some of our states.

Outlawing guns means that only outlaws have guns. Case in point would by NYC. It's illegal for anyone there to possess a gun...so, the only people that have guns are the cops, and the people murdering you. I'd rather be given the option of defending myself.

Anyway....these 'armed gangs roaming around' doing whatever were probably the same people that were armed gangs roaming around before the flood, only now there aren't any cops to contain them. I still maintain the national guard should blast these losers.
