The news of these tornadoes just keeps getting scarier and scarier.
I was just taking my lunch break at the university student union in front of a TV tuned to CNN and they were showing the wreckage left in the wake of this mile-wide, 600 hundred foot tall tornado that tore through Alabama. The death toll so far is 273, and it just keeps climbing. They said it was on its way through southern Georgia. I hope you guys are safe. |

Yeah these tornadoes have me a bit spooked as well. Someone that posts on Vizzed apparently was hit by the one in St. Louis, have not heard of anyone I know being in the path of the ones down in Georgia or Alabama yet... and I hope that no one was affected at all.
We have had tornado warnings and watches a few times since we moved here as well and I honestly think we are screwed if one hits nearby... I mean, modular house with no basement... yeah. |

I know I should feel bad for the first thought that I had. "Dose that mean there are 300+ dead rednecks I don't have to ever deal with breathing my air." like I said I know it's a messed up thing to thing but some people in the south should not be aloud to live. | |||

Originally posted by Nelrith Thank you that is more what I was tryin to get at. I think most of all the full congregation of The WBC needs to die like the town full of people in The Patriot did. For those of you that haven't seen it the town I'm talkin about is all locked up in the church and burned alive. |

I can appreciate sarcasm and a dark sense of humor as much as the next person, but saying that some people don't deserve to live while a national tragedy is going is rather heartless.
All life is precious, and I would think being a father you would understand this. |

Speaking of WBC... it's not that I wish them death, I would just be a bit happier if they died. Other than that, only violent extremists and greedy politicians fall under the same category in my book.
Back on topic, I'm really hoping that things are okay in Georgia, I haven't heard a single thing about it on the news because of the Royal Wedding clogging up all the air time - yes it's nice that they're getting married, no I'm not watching it. |

Yeah... you would think that natural disaster in America would take precedence on American television... given that we fought a war and all to NOT be British.
I watched it online so I could skip the singing and sermons... took an hour long piece of footage and reduced it to ten minutes. |

It pretty much was about 50 miles away from my house. There are youtube videos of it hitting Hamilton Alabama and that's not too far away from where I live.
The storms however were pretty devastating. 40% of GA residents don't even have power right now. |

An online chum of mine has gone off the radar lately due to the power thing, hopefully he's all in one piece. I expect he's okay since he's braved games more effed up than any tornado could be. |

What about her family?
But yeah, 40% without power is insane. Do we have any members from Alabama or any of the other states hit by these storms? |

Hilariously, I was going to make a comparison between the WBC and Osama Bin-Laden in that post yesterday but I figured that he wasn't culturally relevant anymore... Huh. | |||
