I am sorry lrjohnson...did you hear any different from the national news? How about all the accusations that aid was not given as quickly as it should have been since there was a large percentage of victims who were minorities.

We just spent 3 days in my Sociology class reviewing footage from Katrina and how the media portrayed it one sided. Only poor people were affected. Only poor people were victims. Why couldn't the govt have done more to help the poor to get out?

We also discussed the collapse of common decency when it comes to looters, armed robberies, and how quickly society collapsed.

13 million homes are located in Hurricaine prone areas. This is not the last time a major hurricaine will cause this much damage. I donated to help. My former company sent semis of donated items, along with water, food, etc. Many times it was impossible to distribute these items properly because of the hoarding by the strongest.

I have a ton of compassion for those who lost everything!
