Really. Any thinking person has to realize that help is probably not going to
materialize instantaneously from outside the affected area of any disaster.

It's up to the folks right there on the scene to have a effective plan, and be
able to put that plan into place to be able to weather the storm (no pun
intended) until additional help can arrive.

As I recall it, they were warned in the past that Federal help may not arrive
for several days. They did not heed that warning.

They acknowledged before the storm that they would be overwhelmed.

Then they should have done MORE prior to the storm, 'tard boy, instead of sitting
around picking their dingle-berry's like the typical liberal ****stains that they
are waiting for someone else to come along and bail (no pun intended) them out.

That was FEMA's job.

It's NOT FEMA's job PRIOR to the storm, ****-for-brains, it's FEMA's job to come
in AFTER a disaster or catastrophe. Prior to the storm or catastrophe it's up to
local or State government to handle their own damn affairs.

Well if I knew my balls were going to get kicked sometime in the future , I
sure as hell wouldn't wait for FEMA. That city had plenty of decades to
prepare for this storm. I doubt they'll be prepared for the next one too and
blame everyone for not helping them quick enough.

A rough reconstruction of the flooding based on anecdotal accounts,
interviews, and computer modeling, shows that the huge scale of the
overlapping floods – one fast, one slow – should have been clear to
some officials by mid-afternoon Monday, when city representatives
confirmed that the 17th Street canal floodwall had been breached.

Snip

Look this is a very important event but it does not belong in this news
group. This event is over and yet you keep posting one article after
another about it. It's time to stop. If you feel the need to continue to
post about this then find another news group or find a way to associate
it with SW such as the posts about the WWL AMBCB station being
rebroadcast by World Harvest Radio as an example.

These post just incite the Trolls in the news group. Let the Trolling
idiots find their own off topic items to argue about.

Nagin thought that was DYKE money, and invited all the lesbians to the
annual New Orleans gay Decadence Parade, which thankfully got
pre-empted by Hurricane Katrina.
