Ghost of BiB Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 I am not sure on that... Bet, they are in there somewhere... It is just most people will never know. 423276[/snapback] Sittin' on the dock of the bay, watching the time, slip away.
Ramius Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Well, apparently the newest plan i heard was that they were going to drop a 3,000lb sandbag down to try and plug up the breached levee... That would have been an interesting meeting to be in..."hmmmm, maybe if we make 1 GIANT sandbag..."

"Sandbags of mass destruction"? They're going to have to drop a lot more than one, though...that's a big breach. If that's the plan, it's going to take a lot of helicopter fuel to do it.

He is trying to fight back, but shes got the better of him, and you can see shes about ready to whoop his sorry ass when they cut the video away...man i'd like to see the next 30 seconds or so of that video... (IMO, i say shoot looters on sight...it'll teach an invaluable lesson)
gmac17 Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 (IMO, i say shoot looters on sight...it'll teach an invaluable lesson) Shoot them on site? They are just trying to survive. You can't live without flat screen tv's.

Apparently there was one incident where some hospital workers took two large laundry bins across the street to a pharmacy, under shotgun-armed police escort, to grab all the prescription meds (citing an immediate need, which I think is reasonable). A crowd started to gather to loot the store, and the police told them "You can have it when we're done." Granted, New Orleans is quite possibly the world's biggest cesspool right now, and there's people there who do have legitimate need. I'd personally give anyone looting blankets, baby formula, shoes, etc., a pass, as there's people who have lost literally everything (and ultimately, the merchandise is for the most part wrecked and will be written off by the companies anyway). But these dumbasses who are taking TV's? Shoot 'em...at the very least for stealing a television that's been underwater for two days in a city that doesn't have any electricity anyway. And someone please shoot that idiot I keep seeing on TV looting a 12-pack of toilet paper in chest-high water. Why the !@#$ are you carrying a 12-pack of toilet paper through a lake????
VABills Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Why the !@#$ are you carrying a 12-pack of toilet paper through a lake???? 423357[/snapback] Because he can. To get to the other side.

Black Panther Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Because if you don't provide specifics, it just sounds like whining. "Bush's environmental policies suck", though I agree with the statement, is not specifics. And "Bush didn't sign Kyoto" is just garbage; Congress ratifies treaties, not the president.National security and counter-proliferation. 423269[/snapback] Thanks. I agree. But National Security as far as "Homeland Security" was fought by Bush... it was Liberman and the dems that wanted a seperate agency to focus on terror. Bush went along in the end because of political pressure.

Because of all the tards that didn't get out. Damn I am sorry I was right.

Swimwear. Life preservers. Inflatable rafts. You're in the middle of a flood, people!

You dug your own grave with those actions, and now we hafta risk the lives of good men to save your sorry ass.

More government bureaucracy is usually not the answer.

Some of those people simply didn't have transportation. I have sympathy for people victimized by a lack of options. It's the morons who said "I'll ride it out...how bad can it be?" when they're ten feet below sea level that bug me. How bad can it be? See that big-ass river above your head?...

Crap Throwing Monkey Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 Hey beer is righteous. No need to let it go to waste. 423414[/snapback] And there's no potable water available. People need to drink something...
