oh u misinterpret what i say.. when i said i laugh at this shit i was referring to the idiots looting and causing trouble.

never seen something like this in their life so they resort to violence.

im sorry but thats stupid.


by no means am i laughing at the tragedy, but the real tragedy is the way people are acting.

the situation in NOLA is not the same as any other hurricane prone area.

in fact, if no one was there the delta might have spared Mississippi, Alabama - but alas...not so much. the problem IS man vs. nature - the US Army Corps of Engineers versus the Mississippi River.

most dont care here and would rather blame the poor, blacks or Bush - but if you want to know the real roots of the subject check out The Control of Nature by John McPhee. It details the attempts, oversights and previous problems with controlling an uncontrollable force of nature: the Mississippi River.

if two people actually read the book i will be surprised. most just have glazed over eyes and blame an easy target|


READ!! The Control Of Nature (amazon)

I still think that there's already enough violence and problems there, and we don't have to fight ourselves in this forum.

In every tragedy lives a hope, and for me, to connect people around the world, to give the rest of the world the possibility to see that american people are not george w. bush. To finnaly see that american people are like us, quite normal and asking for help because they simply suffer could be a "good thing".

Since around 5 years, the whole world began to hate america, just because of a president. But america is not a president, it's million of lifes, of people (in case very friendly in most case...)
And I don't see any reason to find this tragedy funny juste because you don't like Bush.

Spare your brain, and just thinks... There are thousands dead people there. The least you could do is not to tell anything about it. Perhaps do you think that an american dead body is quite funny, But if, as you tell us, are living near Bombay, you should have seen such a dead body. Did you laugh?
I don't think so.
So, try to be more intelligent that this president you don't like (in fact I really doesn't like him....) ;
Be supportive and give respect to human lives.

All of these people there, it could be one of us one day, even you.

The situation in New Orleans is unbelievable.

The government over there seems to have screwed up bigtime, and the rescue effort seems to be totally chaotic at the moment.

I tell you what, if I was a US citizen i would be FUMING at the completely inadequate preparation/response to this disaster by the authorities.

This is a great tragedy

you are so right. and like i said, the force of nature is nothing to be scoffed at. but the blatant lack of respect is another.

ive been through volcano eruptions in ecuador and monsoons here tornados literally 500m away from my house in houston.. im no stranger to natural disaster.
