what really grated on my nerves was the idiots in charge down there going to peoples homes and confinscating any firearms they had. "Hey now that your home is destroyed and roving bands of criminals are looting, and murdering, you need to hand over your guns. Its for *your* safety, remember?". At least the SAF put an end to it. What idioticy.

Please show me one confirmed report of "roving bands of criminals" after Katrina, Rita, or any other natural disaster. Most of the reports of violent crimes in N.O. were unconfirmed and have now been found to be false. Most "looting" in N.O. was for the sake of survival. A few pictures of morons with televisions got on the news so you believe everyone is like that.

So anyway, there were no murders in the Superdome, there were no shots fired at helicopters, and there were no marauding gangs roaming the streets of New Orleans after Katrina. But you all believed these stories because they were black people down there. Black people that dance and drink liquor sometimes. Poor black people! Even worse! So you assumed they'd be going crazy, shooting, looting, and pillaging.
When I was visiting my folks a few weeks back there were news reports about Katrina victims staying in Murray and how they had been accused of robberies, rapes, murders, etc. even though there had been no such crimes committed AT ALL, much less by the people from New Orleans. The cops said they had had NO problems. But since they were black and from New Orleans the local yocals were convinced they were wild and out of control. I don't know why I'm even trying to explain this to you ignorant racists (you know who you are) as it's like trying to explain the color of the sky to an infant. You go ahead and assume all the poor niggers of the world are out to get you if it makes you feel better about your pathetic self.
On a lighter note, will Wilma make four hurricanes for Florida this year?
