ok i see we are all emotion and no common sense here. i don't mean they are staying this week because they are lazy, i'm saying they aren't too smart watching hurricanes blow in all over the place the last 2, 3, or 4 years while living under the sea. I visited there once and couldn't wait to get back above ground. anyone with common sense would think it's only a matter of time until n.o. takes a hit. sure it was worse than anyone expected. i'm thinking if i lived there, i'd be taking a bus ride to high ground when one headed for me. now why would anyone think all quads are bitter and nasty because of my comments? do you think all blacks are stupid because so many stayed in n.o. watching the storm blow in on them? of course not. maybe they will think, let's check with those quads next time a storm blows this way. right that'll happen. i'm not bitter or mean or in pain!
or
sleepy or anything else you might blame on me. i AM however, dissappointed that the people in those under the sea slums don't try very hard to get out and do something positive with their lives. you think they can't get a manual labor job and move out of there to a safer slum somewhere? you think they HAVE to stay there and live like they do? you think no relative or friend anywhere in the country wouldn't help them move out and start a new life above ground somewhere? i'm a little curious as the where the big water trucks are - the military has lots of them, the dairies have nothing but big tankers that could be filled with water and driven right to most of these people. where are they? they really need my dollar a quart fufu water? i don't think so. we have government agencies dedicated to these types of rescues, paid for by you and me - we've already given much more than 5 10 or 20 bucks. if i had a tanker !
truck,
i'd fill it with water and drive it there - a few quarts just isn't the right solution. and if we allow those low parts of town to be rebuilt and reinhabited - WE are fools. yes i'm compassionate - let's get them out of there and get them relocated to a safer place. this shouldn't be as formidable task as we are seeing on the news. something is very wrong in our government paid rescue agencies.

Dave,Who peed in your coffee? Don't let folks hear you rant like that. They will think all quads are bitter nasty folks with no sense of compassion for others. Thousands get killed in car wrecks and damned if they don't still buy more cars. If they had any sense they'd all fly. Its much safer.geeeesusJust thank god it wasn't you and pry your wallet open and bust loose a few greenbacks.I use to be ill tempered till I found out I need pain meds.

"you owe me", self destructive mentality because they refuse to take responsibility for their lives.
