| Just to let everyone know who read and posted on my last thread about the hurricane. It was swung about 100 miles west of where I live. So the most that I might get here, is some wind and rain. So its nuthing to big, thanx to everyone who supported me and prayed, because it really helped out. | |||

 I was a bit confused on what to do with this thread. XD This post could've been made in your previous thread, but you were the last to post, and not many people may have noticed if you edited that...so I'm going to leave this open and leave it to the discresion of other mods.
**Uber huggles** I'm so glad everything's okay sweetie. Hurricanes on the east coast here have been pretty bad this summer... I had a bunch of family down in Pensicola during those others back in July...they had a lot of damage done... The most important thing though is that everyone's safe, you and your family. I just pray for everyone else down there. |

| Tornadoes aren't kool either. We had some touch down In Columbus as well, but everyone is safe and the storm has moved on. I heard today on the news though that the storm is stronger today then it was yesterday!!! But lets pray for everyone that it is in the path of or have already passed by.
Im sure you all have heard that New Orleans is under water.. let's alll pray for them and hope them the best with this disaster they are currently facing. |

May the gods protect all in Katrina's path from her fury, especially the members of this board and their families. |

| Yes, the gods should help... if I believed in god(s) But anywho, if it brings comfort to people on this board, then...I can say it anyway... It pretty much destroyed all plans for Mardis Gras... | |||

| Yes, no more Mardi Gras.
What I don't understand is why the packs of thugs aren't letting anyone help them. So far they've been violent and shot at anyone trying to get to the hospitals to get the patients to a safe place. I also heard that there is a high rape count in the convention center where people are trapped.  What the fuck do people not have souls these days? |

| I really hate to be rude, and nothing against this tragedy or anything. I think what everyone is doing to help is great. But I am kind of getting tired of watching the same stuff over and over, the media is over playing the same video and same news clips about this tragedy and about new orleans for the past 24 hours now. its getting very depressing. The same thing the media did to 9/11 they are doing to this hurricane.
i dont discourage helping at all, like i said i think its great what everyone is doing, and banning together, i am just tired of the same story of survival from the same person reported by the same reporter over and over again. Maybe some good out of all this could be reported, just to put some hope and life back into those who are searching for it after so much that has gone on. |

Originally posted by zer0 you're only feeling that because you have no connection to these ppl or the places. i felt the same with 9/11... boring stuff over and over and over... but i actually know someone in biloxi, ms... so i'm watching as much as i can... =/ like i said, it's just a matter of connection is all. if you dont know anyone, then usually you wouldnt care. |

| I felt the same way with 9/11, and i lived across the river from NYC when i was little. I practically grew up in that city, but then we moved out to michigan, and when it happened i broke down, like alot of people in the country. But i also felt like they were over dramatizing the whole situation by showing the same clips over and over, and reporting the same stuff over and over. There was rarely ever a clip about someone helping someone, or someone being found by another good citizen, nothing. Thats how i sort of feel about this. Though you are right, that I do not know anyone down there, it just feels like they are doing the same thing, and its really bothering me.
Its ashame people dont want to hear about the good things that happen in the world, but instead are so hooked on what the bad problems are that when they hear it, it sounds like a shock. Good news doesnt attract audiences for raitings, only bad news, like crime percentages, mass shootings, and killing over seas. Thats what sells, not some kid risking his own life to save someone elses thats older than he is. Its unfortunate what this country has turned to. It really is. The devistation of this hurricane is a shock to alot of people. Please dont give me a bad lip of what im about to say, but the crisis in New Orleans was fortold. If your going to put a city in a soup bowl, thats 8000 ft below sea level at least have a emergancy back up plan incase something happens. People make it like this city was supposed to be indestructable...at least what im getting from the news...the fact of the matter is that it wasnt, and now people have to deal with this in a civil manner. What is going on there with the shootings, cops raiding stores, firing at help aid vehichles and automobilies is unjust and there should be something done about it.

| Yea, sex, violence, and drugs are high up on the "ooh I gotta watch this" Meter. And what people want to hear is how so many peple died, just to give them some sort of recent reason to be depressed. It's horrible, but we, as humans, are brutal creatures, who want nothing other than to further our species, and to see others get injured, or hear about how they are injured.
It truly is a sad time... |
