We the people are trying to help NO, the GOVT is preventing
assistance from getting there. Why is our government actively killing American citizens?

1. Is it true FEMA turned away Wal-Mart trucks loaded with water...
....in NOLA? How the hell could that be justified?

2. It's not the only assistance they've turned away.
I keep reading instance after instance on these threads and hearing it in the news. Don't tell me it's a logistics problem. They are managing PR.

5. even if only half of these accounts are true it amounts to...
...criminal negligence on the part of FEMA and Bush. In a real world Bush and his FEMA weasel would be charged with a count of manslaughter or maybe even third-degree murder for every stiff now floating in that fetid soup.

3. It's their own personal agenda, that and to
privatize our government to where no one is responsible for anything.

Americans, think, this could of been your city, this could of been a catastrophic event and our government will not respond to help you and yours. Don't think it can happen to you? I wouldn't want to bet my life on it. As you can see they just like to lock 25,000 people up in the SD in the worst conditions imaginable, so noone could watch them dying like flies. I am so mad at my Government right now. What they did to the people of NO is criminal....

4. They have decimated FEMA so they could CONTRACT OUT
Edited on Sun Sep-04-05 10:23 AM by Spazito
the work. It is as simple as that. FEMA refused to allow help in from Florida, Chicago and many other places because they were waiting until they could get the contracts signed with Halliburton and others.
