--- Quote from: TheVengeance on September 02, 2005, 12:22:14 pm ---Then it still goes back to the original point as mentioned here before.

Acting like complete SAVAGES and HURTING your fellow man, while at the same time having the nerve to extend your hands in a desperate cry for help.

I think you're making the all too common mitake of confusing the people who need to be rescued with the crazies who are shooting at the resue workers. They are two distinct groups. One needs help, the other needs extermination.

--- Quote ---Does ShapeD actually think all we had in Florida , were PAPERCUTS?

See now I think you are misinterpreting him. I'm certain that he was over exagerating to make a point.

Help us under stand TheVengeance. What losses did you incur from the 4 hurricanes? Who did you recieve water and food from? Do you live in a home w/ insurance? Do you have the means to be able to buy products once your arc reached dry land?

I think you may be missing the fact that these people that are in NO are the Poor who if they walked out couldn't have been able to by food or water before they reached a shelter. They also are sick and elderly who can't help themselves let alone other people.

There ARE people from NO helping out other people. Its just you not going to see it on the recap of the news at te end of the day because they think all anyone wants to here about is the lotters and rapists and murderers.

I don't think you meant it that way, but using Shape D's analogy, you do sort of come off as saying that the papercut you got was just as bad as the guy who got his arm blown off and since you got over the papercut quickly, you don't understand what he's sniveling about. Again, I don't think you meant it that way, but that interpretation is there.

Thats actually what both of these read like.

--- Quote from: TheVengeance on September 02, 2005, 11:54:22 am ---Brother, I had four , count them 1-2-3-4 hurricanes knocking on my front door last year, and you know what , I survived every damn one of them. And, I did it without raping, killing or looting! WE no sooner cleaned up from one, and another one got us , and so on & so on.

I still for the life of me, fail to see what makes New Orleans so much more valuable as a whole , compared to the hurricanes we had last year alone in Florida! >:(

Perhaps you're right, the lot of us here chose not to be victims and decided to do something about it.

So what about the sick and elderly. they don't have the pysical or monitary requirements needed to make it out of the city. before or after this happened.

That's like me telling a man who had an arm blown off in war that the paper cut I got last week at work hurt a lot and I know what he's going through.

Oh please, that's not what I'm saying at all. Try re-reading the post , SISTER !

Insults don't always work great when trying to prove your point. If you would like to inform me I am wrong feel free too correct me without resorting to an insult, and I will gladly lend you an ear.

Well I wasn't exagerating! Florida was hit hard last year, and I defy someone to say different. That's all.

Setabs:
The people doing these things(rapes, murders) are the same people that would have done it last week, two weeks and three months ago. The difference no is their behavier has been unchecked for the last 4 days.

Some of these people are abviously not in the, I need to get out of town, state of mind. Just think about it you house was destroyed or its under water why the hell do you need a tv ar 50 pairs of pants? where are you going to put that?
