O.T. (skip this part)
As the Mayor of New Orleans so rightly said, "Adversity does not create
character it reveals it." How true it is too and just look at what we are
seeing!
Whatever was there in that southern region waiting to come out, held in
check for so many years by any number of things, has now been unleashed
and is running rampant thru New Orleans. It is anarchy.
It's unbelievable.
Those criminals we sometimes call "##### Americans" have done themselves
no favor and have setback the ##### cause a 100 years. It give us a
glimpse at what the future may hold in so many other urban areas where the
system might break down and this segment of our population is left to
their devices...it's a worst fear situation that has to be delt with.
There are ##### robbing ##### victims at the shelters, ##### looting en
masse, ##### gangs shooting at helicopters to keep rescue workers out of
the areas where they are looting and just the sheer savagery of ##### gone
wild, committing crimes in huge numbers. It causes me to say this without
a shred of prejudice, just merely as a witness to the facts as they unfold
on TV.
America better get it's house in order and get ALL it's people up to speed
as humans, because we obviously have a good percentage of our population
that turns into monsters when there is no law to stop them.
I exclude ALL people of any color who are looting for food, water or
shelter just to survive and of course it excludes what is likely the
majority of ##### Americans who are NOT committing any crime. Those
people are the first who have a right to condemn those other ##### for
what is the worst behavior seen since the Watts riots. It's making all
of ##### America look bad. It's unbelievable and despite what millions of
people are seeing on tv, we are loath to speak a word about bad #####
behavior for fear of being called a racist and why I will let you insert
your own word for #####.
When I was 9 years old I went through a smaller, but not dissimilar flood
and none of this crime we now see in New Orleans ever happened. It was
just a north state community problem, hundreds of thousands of people were
flooded out and those people eventually dug themselves out of it. So it's
not like our people didn't have the chance to behave badly, they sure did,
but they just didn't. The difference between these two events was not
the size of the event, but the type of people involved.
M35A2: I hope old Sarge makes it thru ok and gets that food and water to
where it belongs. He's got the right vehicle...M35A2! That will take a
good 4 to 5 feet of water with ease. There's a lot of them at work there
already, a whole lot more of them than the new LMTV's...which seems kinda
odd. Did we send all those new vehicles to Iraq?
