Refugees from New Orleans behind barbed wire in Utah
Refugees from New Orleans behind barbed wire in Utah
by Don Nash, Unknown News
Sept. 6, 2005

Utah's Governor Jon Huntsman has taken in some of the New Orleans refugees, at Camp Williams. Replete with barbed wire, armed soldiers with weapons at ready, police and sheriff with weapons at ready, and hell, they must surely feel right at home. In America yet. What bullshit! I'm not done with this outrage, not by a long shot. I'm actually just getting started.

<snip>

The Hurricane Katrina insurgency from New Orleans is tucked safely away behind the 6-foot chain link fence with the accommodating barb wire atop chain links. The ONLY entry into Detention Camp Utah is through the highly secure military gates that are guarded by armed military guards twenty four seven.

The ONLY access to the New Orleans insurgency is granted to military, government officials, and MAINSTREAM media.

The armed military guards at the military gates will not take nor answer any questions regarding the New Orleans insurgency. The guards will however instruct one dissident radical pseudo-media personality to turn the car around and get gone post haste. Only officially cleared personnel can access the New Orleans insurgency.

Their only crime would be poor and black?

Utah generosity has evacuees thinking of staying

By Brooke Adams
The Salt Lake Tribune
Salt Lake Tribune

BLUFFDALE -- A day after arriving in Utah, Mary and David Richard Jr. are ready to call this their new home.
Awed by the kindness that has enveloped them since their arrival and stunned by the beauty of the Wasatch Mountains, the New Orleans' couple have begun the search for a new house, a new life.
There is nothing to return to, they said Monday as they ate lunch in a dining hall at Camp Williams. Their home is gone and with it their day-care business.
"This opportunity has opened doors for us," Mary Richard said. "I'm hoping we can start our business again. We have no intentions of going back there to live. Everyone is warm here, courteous. They don't let you want for anything."
Like the Richards, a handful of other evacuees said Monday they were prepared to make a fresh start in Utah. They are among some 600 people brought here from ravaged New Orleans as of late Sunday, when the most recent planeload of evacuees arrived in Utah.

Camp life: 'It's great here'

Evacuees are grateful for hospitality and services

By Angie Welling
Deseret Morning News
CAMP WILLIAMS — The hottest ticket in this town is to the barbershop, now open every Monday for five hours.
Stuart Johnson, Deseret Morning NewsJoshua Bowie leads "platoon" of smiling children across a street at Camp Williams to get some lunch. He figured a march was in order since they are at a military base. The shop, the latest addition to a growing number of services for some 600 people evacuated from the storm-ravaged Gulf Coast, joins a cafeteria and commissary, medical clinic, employment center/transportation hub for people trying to get back to loved ones in other states.
"This is a little community we're caring for," said Ash Chambers, a Red Cross volunteer from Spokane, Wash. "We're going to make them as comfortable as possible here."

At the request of the original poster and upon review, this story is bogus.
