Welcome to Gaia! ::

Actually the first thing the military are giving the victims is coffee. LOL ^^

cat 4 (by 1 mph) according to the windspeed. but then again after this storm the weather channel is rethinking the current storm system that they are using. The pressure on it was lower then camilles and andrews. Cammille was a cat five and I think the most costly storm in us history. katrina beat it.

Anywho guys if you can Donate to the redcross and if you personally dont have the money bug your parents to do it. It IS after all Tax deductable( for us residents not sure about other countries). Besides every penny helps them out. These are people who have literally lost everything including there coffee and not to mention any starbucks and other coffee shops that were there. Okay im done for my little sympathy trip. sweatdrop

Yeah, the people in New Orleans are just making things worse for themselves. Its pissing me off. They're shooting police and rescue workers whom are trying to help them. Not only that, they're looting and crap. I can understand looting bottled water, food, and lanterns ....but T.V.'s?! For Godsake man! That is friggin stupid and ridiculous. Plus, women and children are getting raped in the midst of this chaos. Thats the last straw for me. Honestly, I think that the gov should just get some hicks from over here and have them shoot down the violators in their little marsh airboat things. Police are turning in their badges so they won't have to deal with it. Who can blame them, the people are braking into the station and trying to kill them. Stupid gangs. Just shoot down the armed hazardous people and help the people who actually deserve it. In this case, I'd agree with Machiavelli in that you've got to be cruel to be kind and that you'd be doing everyone a favor in doing so.

Precisely, all that is..is human greed. stressed

Awww... that's so caring. ^^

LOL! I could donate my instant MRE coffee. XD

cool
