Hurricane Katrina

[wishirulz]

Hurricane is a dangerous problem too!It is same as The big ombak in Indonesia...Its so sad...

HAHAHA how old are you cause you became a TV victime **** man i swear, the ****in huricane came after 2 weeks, and the tsunamie came like in half a sec. killing thousands!

I think this whole thing is Bush's fault...He goes in to VEIW the damage. I bet you he seen at least 100 people on thier roof tops waiting to be rescued and he didn't do jack for them! He is SAYING he wants money to help but the real people who are doing the recovery is the neighboring states....and diffrent states around....congress and the pres isn't doing jack! It ticks me off! We need a new president!

i know what you mean i dont come from US but as much as i know that a country should respect his or her leader, he's gon to far. plus remember the **** about the nucks in palestine? maybe people did'nt, that's why they were stupid enough to re-elect him

 

[John Denver]

wishirulz...you get a warning to...stop flaming and spaming...You can't blame bush for this, you simply can't. You just want him to be your scapegoat, how sad is that.

No more flames on Bush or anybody else...mmkay?

I think it's funny to see that even a Hurricane hits and Bush gets blamed for it. Isn't there enough things out there to blame him on? Bush can no more prevent a Hurricane no more then you can.
Ok time to set a few things right about your post (and then on to the part about the Hurricane).
Bush didn't take money away from them. That problem was there when good ol' Bill Clinton was there and he did nothing about it. So why are you not saying anything about him? Why doesn't he get a bit of blame from you but Bush gets it all? If you really have to blame someone then go out and blame the Mayor of New Orleans. He has been told for years and years that the levy wouldn't withstand anything bigger then a cat 3, did he do anything? No, he didn't do anything about it when he was told that. And he saw it coming so why didn't he evacuate the city? Like it or not the President can't be everywhere at the same time. He can't be doing everything at the same time, if he was then we wouldn't need a Mayor or anyone else.
Did you know Bush got FEMA to send busses and busses down there to get the people out? He sent them down there 3-7 days before it hit New Orleans. Do you know where all them busses are now? They are under water and sitting where FEMA left them, because the Mayor didn't evacuate the city. If he evacuated then (when Bush sent all them busses down there) then lots and lots of of lives would have been saved. I heard on the news that they went to an old folks home, they found 80 dead there. If you got to blame someone for them 80 dead people that couldn't have made it out on their own, then blame the Mayor of New Orleans.
I was listening to Rush Limbaugh (all of you should tune into his show, on the radio if you live in the US you might be able to pick him up in other countries since he does have more people that listens to his show then any other show on the radio. He has lots of ideas that makes you think) the other day. And he was talking about how we have all the advancements and all that stuff. But we can't stop a Hurricane (or anything else out of nature) no better then we could thousands of years ago. But Bush gets blamed for it because he didn't "do something" about it.

I think it's sad to see a lot of that city under water, and you also got people burning buildings and stuff down and looting everything. It's like they have to have a way to get away with it (they wouldn't have done it before, but now that no one can stop them they are doing it). I can understand looting for food and stuff for your family or a necessity (clothes, fresh water etc). But having 5 boxes of new Nike shoes or a new big screen TV is not a necessity. And that's what's sad, they are trying to make money out of this (they wouldn't have got the stuff before the Hurricane).

I feel sorry for them people that lost everything down there. And I feel sorry for the loss of life that happened out of all this. The ones that's still alive still has their life, and they should be thankful that they have that. Homes and cars and all that kind of stuff can be replaced. Lives can't, if they made it out then they should be happy about that. I know I would hate to lose everything I own, but if me and my family is safe then that's what matters. Not how much money you lost, or how much money you'll get from whoever.
I really can't say much about the lives lost, because most of them new it was going to hit them. And they had a chance to get out before hand, but they didn't. Any loss of life is sad (may it be from this Hurricane to the war in Iraq to someone having a wreck in a car) and I fear once all the water is drained and they can get to all the homes and building the death toll will go high. But to me a lot of them deaths could have been prevented by just them leaving their home (they put the home and the things in it over their own life and they had to pay a price for it as well).

Dude Clinton didn't take the money it was taken by Bush...if you payed any attention you would see that Bush has been in office for 6 years....Which is really dumb after he sent the troops to Iraq I could careless for him and now that the Hurricanne He is veiwing the city. Whatever....And you wouldn't blame the Mayor because he told them to get out they rode many other Hurricanes out so they thought they could this one to...that was thier own stupidity. But Bush did take the Coprs. money and FEMA didn't go down there I dont know what you are watching!

wishirulz...you get a warning to...stop flaming and spaming...You can't blame bush for this, you simply can't. You just want him to be your scapegoat, how sad is that.

No more flames on Bush or anybody else...mmkay?

Its more like how sad are you! He is the #1 target because he didn't do a thing about this yet and its crap!

u can say that again. my house is flloded.I'm using the Libraries computer. Where am I gonna sleep tonite?

I would LOVE to know what Library you are at because the power is out ALL over New Orleans. So I think you are blowing smoke bacuase there is NO way you got flooded unless you are in another state!

 

[Arcanine]

Ok Randall-Kun this is your final warning on flaming and going off topic before I give you a 1 week temp ban. You were told over and over again not to flame and bash Bush anymore (I don't even want to take the time to reply to your post because you're not worth it, I'm going to spend all that time typing up my reply and it's just going to go in one ear and out the other). Now if you want that ban then go on and yap about how Bush is the root of all evil like you been doing and I'll gladly give it to you. If not then don't say anything about Bush anymore (you were told twice not to do it and that post of Dakota's above yours says " No more flames on Bush or anybody else...mmkay?").

Now lets try to get back on topic.

 

[Chairman Kaga]

All that can be said about the idiocy of politicizing a natural disaster has been said at length and wonderfully. I commend all of you who know that there isn't a button in the White House labeled "Launch Hurricane". To those of you who are so blindly against the president that you would accuse him of hiring KKK Wizards to conjure up a hurricane that would target poor southern blacks, let me say that you're all fools.

Dude Clinton didn't take the money it was taken by Bush...

Nobody took any money; any money set aside for the buliding of defense structures sat unused thanks to the apathy of "mayor" Ray Nagin, and probably Governor Kathleen Blanco.

if you payed any attention you would see that Bush has been in office for 6 years....

January 2001-mid 2005 (thus far.) Four and a half years AT MOST.

Which is really dumb after he sent the troops to Iraq I could careless for him

You and millions of other people. Don't think you're special for hating Bush. You who try to come off as so punk are actually conforming. Wake up.

and now that the Hurricanne He is veiwing the city.

Good syntax, please? Every president tours areas that have been hit by a natural disaster so they can assess the damage for themself. It's only proper. You say he's in the wrong for trying to COMFORT people?

Whatever....And you wouldn't blame the Mayor because he told them to get out

That's all the mayor did. He's sat around since the hurricane in his polo shirts and his five-o-clock shadow trying to act as ghetto as he can and doing nothing except blame the government. He's incredibly incompetent. Even if "mayor" Nagin hadn't have urged people to leave, everyone would have anyway. No one with a car is going to try to ride out a category five storm for kicks.

they rode many other Hurricanes out so they thought they could this one to...that was thier own stupidity.

Scientists had repeatedly said that New Orleans would be destroyed if anything over a category three hit. It's not their stupidity, it was the local government's unwillingness to protect their own citizens.

But Bush did take the Coprs. money and FEMA didn't go down there

Erm, billions of dollars, all of FEMA's resources, and the national guard all made it down as quickly as they could. I have no idea what you're getting at.

I dont know what you are watching!

The news.

Its more like how sad are you! He is the #1 target because he didn't do a thing about this yet and its crap!

You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. Bush has done everything in his power, called up all the legislation he can, dispatched all the troops he can, freed all the funds he can, went to offer confidence as much as he can, and all that remains is left to the charity of the American people. He's one man, he controls a government with a thousand heads.

Until you can proove that you're not an "rofl bsh sxks die!!!!!!1:dead:" lemming, your points are invalidated.

 

[ShieldWolf27]

here is my last post in here!
(I don't even want to take the time to reply to your post because you're not worth it, I'm going to spend all that time typing up my reply and it's just going to go in one ear and out the other)
isn't that bashing me? didn't think staff could do that?

Thats flaming to!

 

[Alana]

Alright cut it out. I may not be a mod but I can see when somethins gonna turn into a flame war. I'll admit. I hate Bush. But that's not what this topic is about. It's about the hurricane. Bush didn't make that happen as much I would like to blame him for it. All I've heard and seen on TV and know and blah blah blah. Yeah I'd like to speak my opinion on the subject but that would be stupid. So cut the stuff on Bush and talk about Katrina. A lowly member is asking you. Please?

 

[Chairman Kaga]

Hah, hilarious...I'm not worth it? That's blatant code for "All my arguments have no base and I just hate Bush because I hate him so nyah".

Oooh, so not only are you blindly anti-Bush, but you're blindly anti-staff! =D I suppose you consider any opinion other than your own "bashing." So be it, then :D

 

[Charizard_Fire_God]

*reads posts* Umm... *cough* Why is it that everytime somebody talks about current disasters, tch, especially uncontrollable an' unprovoked ones that it always somehow breaks out inta relligious/sexual/pollitical flaming? Tch, I won't even ask... @@

Anyways I saw tha news. Yeah, there were victims indeed, tch, but like whishirulz said, even though it was a cataclysmic force(F5s are tha most powerful tornadoes) its death toll doesn't reflect its force fully, since warnings got most ppl out of its path. Yes, tch, tha material damage will probably be tha biggest concern, tch, since, unlike ppl, properties don't move out of a tornado's path.
Other than that what can I say? Tch, it's a perfectly natural phenomenon. An F5 is indeed rare, but nevertheless still a natural phenomenon, tch, an' it will happen again at some point. Tornadoes just form, there's no way ta stop it... tch, an' as long as ppl will inhabit exposed areas,which they obviously will, since large city populations obviously have no intent of moving, there will always be a risk. Until mankind finds a way ta cope with, or block such callamities there will always be people dying.

*looks at locked threads in OC* Wow, tch, pollitical spirits are high this week... @@

 

[ShieldWolf27]

ok I lied not my last post! I bashed Bush i know that. as a matter of fact I meant to! I know your staff and I know Arcanine is staff but its still flaming and bashing!

 

[Alana]

......Katrina was a hurricane,....not a tornado. O_o Catagory fives are the worst. No one consideres just how much power they hold. I never thought much about it or even thought that it might be really as bad as I heard. But it just goes to show you. You can't under estimate Mother Nature. It causes bad things to happen. No I was not being sarcastic or spiteful.

OOC: (I know not an RP but why not?) Oh I do have a suggestion, it is very true political feelings are running high. Why not just make a thread where everyone can flame and rant about political stuff all they want and just get it out of their systems. Might make things easier.

Because it would involve flaming and ranting =p We tried it with the T-Dome but as you can see most people can't handle civility.

ok I lied not my last post! I bashed Bush i know that. as a matter of fact I meant to! I know your staff and I know Arcanine is staff but its still flaming and bashing!

I'm not going to tell you what the definition of flaming and bashing is because you've got it hopelessly wrong and nothing we say will change your opinion. And don't play the staff card, it doesn't work. No one can help that many of the staff enjoy debating.

 

[ShieldWolf27]

Well I am sixk of getting told to stop flaming Bush and the getting bashed my self!

 

[Bunnybutt]

Okay, you all tone it down with the flaming or I'll have to lock this thread.

 

[Alana]

No one can help that many of the staff enjoy debating.

So do many of the members. :P We just tend to use, er, different tactics shall I say. I know the T-Dome was a failure which is a shame. If it's ever tried again there should be an age limit. (I'm probably sealing myself out but it's for the better. I hardly ever posted anyway.)

Back on the topic of hurricanes. Has anyone ever thought about a catagory six hurricane. I know it doesn't tecnacally exsist but there must be a point when a storm gets so stronge it can't be called a catagory five and be fair. I saw on Storm Stories once there was a tornado that was actually considered being called an F6. Makes me shudder thinking about what would happen if such a storm made land fall.

 

[ShieldWolf27]

i will stop posting in here as soon as I KNOW that there will not be bashing of me....

In the words of Kagome, SIT BOY! Randall your this close *holds up two fingers only a centimeter apart* from being suspended so cool it ok. Shoot now I'm Spamming up the thread. And I got cuaght up in the argument. I thought I said I wasn't going to do this. -_-

 

[ShieldWolf27]

fine i am gone forget all this!

 

[Crystal Clair]

I dont want to get in the middle of all this Bush business. After all, my parents didn't vote for him.
I feel sooo bad for the victims. If I was without electricity for two months, I wouldn't go to school and I would probably go into depression without the internet, my laptop and Clair.
btw, if you go on google maps and go to the New Orleans, you can see the before and after effect on the city. It's freaky!

 

[Agent9]

*ignores the arguments* ok, well um, i was just wondering if you guys saw Kanye West's speech on the news. I don't support it nor am I against it
