6. This appears to be TOTALLY out of control. CNN reporter

is discussing the convention center situation and it's a disaster. No help, whatsoever.

7. maybe if they could send some troops that are prepared

to deal with these types of situations. FEMA is the downfall of this country. These people are violent because of fuckers like FEMA blowing them off and treating them like animals. I told you all of this was on purpose. I am so mad right now I don't even have any nice thing to say. THIS IS AN OUTRAGE

8. CNN showing footage of "thousands" stranded at convention center

with no National Guard, and no relief supplies. They also reported earlier that there are hundreds of people stranded at 2 different schools in NO. One school had over 500 people and the other I believe 200 or 300.

This is looking more and more dire.

9. Reaching the point of many people dying today and tomorrow....

With an inability to help the desperately dying the FEMA officials are unwilling to risk their lives to save lives

We are now in for some major numbers of dying by people still waiting for water and food and medical care.

Those poor folks stuck on rooftops and in attics have just received the death sentence if rescue operations are not resumed right away.
