So I've been reading alot about this disaster, its said to be the worst natural disaster in a century, and it will be a month before the water is pumped out, and by then will there be any will to restore the city? My best wishes go out to the people of new Orleans who may never see there homes again

I think the city is gone. There is no way they can ever get it back to the way it was.

"Most guys know that women dig guys with money. Would Donald Trump be fucking models if he wasn't rich? That question is rhetorical. Now I don't even believe this is wrong, I think it is just nature. But I also think women who are this way (and it is almost all of you) should be honest and admit that they are basically whores, and stop saying bad things about the so-called "actual whores" who are just trying to earn an honest living."

ya, well do you remember how much we tried to help out those people after the tsunami? We sent millions if not billions of dollars worth of food and supplies, and you know where 85% of it ended up??? IN PORTS because their rediculous government wouldnt let it be sent to people in need...Don't tell me we werent supportive of them when they had a natural disaster.

Hey Retard, the death toll is in the thousands in New Orleans alone, not to mention Mississippi. Take your head out of your ass.

it could've been alot worse, just imagine if a storm of the same strength had hit some part of indonesia or any other area of south eastern asia with a highly concentrated population. with all the resources that the US has, they probably minimized the casualties.
it's too bad though, the city most likely wont ever be the same, it's always been a place that i've really wanted to visit

i honsetly want to wakeboard, and guess what... people die all the time. oh well, im having a hard time feeling any compassion here. and really, its probably just a taste of the shit floridas going to start getting in the near future. its just nature running its course with a little help from us...

listen. the morons who weren't smart enough to heed the warnings to completely evacuate the city days in advance got what was coming. a freaking hurricane. and if they couldn't for some reason evacuate the city, then for God's sake they could have at least gone to the superdome and chilled for the entirety of the hurricane, as was the order given.

the way i, and many others see it is that one of those two steps were necessary for survival. if you can't respond to one of these two options, then obviously, death is imminent, and you're the one responsible.

i'm not being disrespectful. i feel horrible for all the families who lost all their possessions and those around them, the businesses which have been completely lost, and for the city that has essentially sunk. but for those individuals who didn't adhere to the advice given, which was to run for the hills, then well, i don't feel all that sympathetic, because they must have had a deathwish anyways.

and as far as the urban wakeboarding, thats what has crossed my mind every time i see images of the city under water.

and to those condemning us who point it out- if there was a total blizzard that as a result killed many people, but opened up a world of opportunities for new urban jibs and lasted for months and months... at some point wouldn't you take advantage of it? realistically, it's not like anyone would wakeboard there anyways, because it's totally unsanitary, and would be detrimental to the wakeboarder's health for sure. but don't get mad at us for having fantasies.

there has been no water or power in iraq for months.

There are like 5 million iraqis homeless, with their houses turned to rubble.

hopefully this will help some people to understand just how shitty living like that is, especially when it dosent have to happen.

Basically what I wanted to say.
There were warnings.
Why didn't you get your stupid black ass out of the city?
It's not liek there wasn't enough time.
They were predicting category 4/5 days before it even hit.

I think New Orleans is just fucked for a couple years to come.

*THE STORY OF NEW ORLEANS*

Once apon a time there was a piece of land UNDER WATER surrounded by the ocean a river and a huge fucking lake! A genius got the idea to build a wall between the lake the river and the ocean and then to pump out the water so the land would be land and not under water. So once the water was gone they got the brilliant idea to build stuff, like buildings, homes, superdomes, and golfcourses. Well it was only a matter of time before the walls would break from a disaster.

The way I look at it is that the founders of the city are fucking morons for thinking that it would work forever! I do feel bad for the founders children that had to sufer their great grandpas stupid ass Ideas!

The point is DONT BUILD YOUR HOMES IN A PLACE YOU HAVE TO PUMP THE WATER OUT OF INORDER TO MAKE IT LIVEABLE.

and to the fucking jackass that said the death count was in the thousands, thats what the predicted it was going to be, only a few hundred dies wich is sad but not a horrible natural disater tradgedy. and just cuz i know theres so many vush haters, he tried to help the state out days before the storm hit, but the satste wouldnt accept it. so its the motherfuckin mayors fault those hundreds died. and yes wakeboarding in the city would be the funniest hting in a long time

what pisses me off is how everybody can be saying:-

'this is not the america i grew up in.'
'they are living in filth, it's disgusting, it's not right'

etc, etc

HOW MANY THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES OUT THERE HAVE BEEN LIVING IN THAT SORT OF ENVIRONMENT FOR DECADES.... CENTURIES...

now that they got a taste of what a large portion of the world has to live in, maybe they'll start to do something about it.

but then again, probably not. they're pretty thick, and can't see beyond they're own fuckin borders

even though this is impossible, i am being totally serious when i say they should chop New Orleans off into the ocean and bild a new New Orleans where the US stops to have control of the missisippi and such. That would be the 49 states, but soon we'll have Irac so it wil be an even number again.
