I havent seen this posted no where on here. Im really close to where all this happened at. Just want to tell you guys to keep all these people in your prayers at night. Shit is real bad. I work at Wal-Mart and it has impacted us a good bit. The distribution center I work at has had to serve alot of the stores that were impacted. We have a lot of people from around there that didnt have anywhere to go because the storm took there jobs and shit. They are working at our D.C. right now. You just would NOT believe some of there stories that they can tell because they were there first hand. Its something sad to see. Just keep them in your prayers is all I ask.

Good post Snipe.
It's easy for people to about their business when it doesn't directly affect them. I've donated money and clothes to the Red Cross. We all have a good life down here and things don't seem out of place, but it's ten times worst than the stories the news puts out.
If they showed the real shit, we would be revolting against the Government and it would be all out anarchy.
Glad you are alright, Snipe.

Yea the governent isnt worth a shit. Took them forever to get there and help out. Now what if it would've hit Washington? Think it would have been taking the government that long? Hell nah! I think that it is bullshit but thats just my opinion.

No, you right on. They weren't even trying to take the evacuation seriously. They had buses and all and didn't even move anyone. Fuckheads!!!

Yeah didnt it take them a week to move the first group of people? And I heard some people had to without food and water and pampers and shit for days. They had this reverend talk on the radio out here and I guess mad people have been going to Texas to stay there and the Red Cross won't even help them all and they also won't help his church out even though they are helping I think he said like some 8 thousand people. This one lady in Texas, single mom, 3 bedroom apartment has like 26 people staying with her since they have nowhere else to go and his church is raising as much money as it can to help out. It's fucked up the way this all works, we can fuck up Iraq and fix it, but for some reason we can't fix our own country. It's a damn shame when the Red Cross won't even help everyone who needs it, but go into almost any store at the mall or anything and they are all excepting donations and then matching it to up to a certain point. Yeah, on that note, when you all pick up Socom 3 in a couple weeks EB is excepting donations of 1, 5, 10, or 25 bucks, and matching up to I believe 50 grand.

Yeah true, but we're in the process of spending mad money over there in hopes of fixing it up.

Right now the Gov is just trying to save face and go above and beyond to do shit. They suck!! It's always after a ton of people are dead and CNN is right in their fucking face that they start to act.
