mathews4life Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Due to hurricane katrina they are sending refugees to our area. I got a phone call from my mom today while i was at school telling me to leave school and come straight home. They are starting to rob houses, cars, and everything else. They robbed one of our biggest gun stores and took all kinds of guns and ammo in broad daylight. They had a shooting two blocks from campus, which is one block from my parking spot for school. They are waiting out in parking lots and beating ppl when they come out of the stores, stealing their cars, and products that they bought, almost beating the life out of them. They are now robbing major grocery stores and even walmart. Its getting so bad that now the life long citizens are even packing up and leaving their homes bc the risk of bein robbed and killed is rising. My sister and her family are leaving to come sleep here tongiht. I just think that its totally sad how u give these ppl a place to stay and rest their head and now they are going around destroying our community and killing innocent individuals. They are complaining on tv that they aren't getting any help but maybe bc its that their fellow citizens over there are now shooting at the rescue helicopters. What do u do?? What was such a quiet and peacefull place to live for the 20 yrs i have been living here has turned into upright turmoil due to the fact of trying to lend a helping hand. It's only been 4 days since this has started, what's to come??? Everyone around is fearing night fall, but i can assure u no one who breaks in my house will make it out!!!! I think its sad when i fear my life is in danger just by going to school and walking on campus... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andrea Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Re: Everyone on the edge.... Sounds like they sent all the gang members and thugs to your area. I will never understand the mentality of some people. I pray for you and your family. Everything that is going on is just so apocalyptic. I fear for what may be coming next.

mathews4life Posted September 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Re: Everyone on the edge.... as harsh at it may seem, i think whatever stayed behind for the storm needed to stay behind. If they wanna act the way they are then just leave them there and fight the war among themselves. I know its harsh but thats the way they are making ppl think about them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is mostly the same people taking advantage of others in a bad situation How can the police or military possibly govern what is going on ? I hope will get caught and pay for their crimes. too_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NY911Bowhunter Posted September 1, 2005 Report Share Posted September 1, 2005 Re: Everyone on the edge.... People - we are our own worst enemies sometimes. Sorry - they are not human - they are animals! Help is on the way to help those who need it - but CANT because they are too busy trying to resemble law and order!!!! Animals...................

TOMSD5 Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Re: Everyone on the edge.... [ QUOTE ] Tragedy doesn't change people, it just brings out who they really are inside. Tragedy just gives the thugs an excuse to be the normal rotten people they are, and just brings out the best in good people. Looters should be shot on site!!! I'm not talking about people taking water and food for their babies. I'm talking about the 95% of them I see taking large TV sets, and designer sneakers by the dozens and carts full of boxes of wine!!! Bast**ds!!! They are not taking the necessities of life, just the luxury goods they feet they are "entitled to." It just shows their heads are in the wrong place. I hope those greedy good-for-nothing losers drown in the sewer infested water while trying to keep their beloved pilfered TV out of harms way!!! [/quote amen to that...

Turkeygirl Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Re: Everyone on the edge.... I know, it is total chaos. Things seem to be getting worse rather than better down there and no the gas prices are higher than ever. Right now we all should be praying for these people and that things starts to get better down there. It really is sad but God knows everything that is happening; it is in His hands.

Guest Andrea Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Re: Everyone on the edge.... I LOVE what Governor Blanco said: Announcing the arrival of 300 Arkansas National Guard troops in New Orleans fresh from service in Iraq, Blanco said, "these troops are battle-tested. They have M-16s and are locked and loaded." "These troops know how to shoot and kill and I expect they will," she said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
