:wow::scared::tinfoilhat::wow::scared::tinfoilhat::wow::scared::tinfoilhat:



OMG I didn't believe it and I CERTAINLY don't believe the caption that accompanies it. Is someone trying to get the message out? Have you suspended all common sense and still think this is possible or that this thread is actually about a government planned, executed, and concealed plan to kill poor people right in front of everyone? Is that it? Are you seriously out of your _______ mind? Do you really want to align yourself with Farrakhan?

A Chinook helicopter drops a sandbag as work continues to shore up a broken levee wall north of downtown New Orleans, Louisiana, September 10, 2005. Hurricane experts said Hurricane Katrina's storm surges were smaller than authorities have suggested and that poor design, faulty construction or a combination of the two were to blame for the failure of New Orleans' flood-protection system, The Washington Post reported on Wednesday.

1. I Usually Don't Agree With Farrakhan...

...but he might actually be right this time. There are some really suspicious things going on.

2. Your not serious, right?

[enigami]

3. That was a sandbag

your tin foil hat is to tight man

[SidDithers]

4. OMG.. it's a sandbag splash...

As you'll notice, the levee has already been breached. If this was the "explosion" that destroyed the levee, it would still be dry on one side.

Get a friggin' grip. :tinfoilhat:

Sid

Edit: Sorry, thought you were serious. I should know better by now :)

[The Backlash Cometh]

5. er...

You did notice that the water on both sides of the levee are level?

[darkism]

6. Theories like this are why they call us "moonbats" n/t

[underpants]

8. I know

that is the point of the thread

[DistressedAmerican]

13. Huh?

[JimmyJazz]

39. You have to read what is posted in italics.

underpants is being extremely sarcastic ;)

[Whoa_Nelly]

7. To me it looks exactly like huge sandbag having been dropped in the water

Especially with the look of the water displacement from the center up and outward.

Am at a loss here as to what you're trying to point out :shrug:

[Salviati]

9. There's plenty of water on both sides of that levee

This photo was taken well after the breech, and I have no reason to suspect from the photo that the caption is anything but truthful. If this were a photo of someone blowing up the levee, then the cityward side would have a lot less water on it.

[DistressedAmerican]

10. You'll Need To Be Getting A Grip.

This is not an explosion. This post is total bull. Pissed you wasted my time...

:wtf:

[sui generis]

15. the best advice is oft unheeded by the advisor

just sayin' :reading-is-fundamental:

:shrug:
:hi:

[StopTheMorans]

48. SNAP!

[crispini]

11. You might want to mark your OP as "satire."

I find this little icon comes in handy too: :sarcasm:

[kick-ass-bob]

37. umm, did you READ his post?

right there in i-talics is what the pic is.

[crispini]

12. You might want to mark your OP as "satire."

I find this little icon comes in handy too: :sarcasm:

[underpants]

23. :sarcasm:

thanks forgot that

[pitohui]

14. oh yes these are obviously tiny slum shacks

no wonder they blew up the levees to clear such tiny miserable properties

:eyes:

it is clearly exactly what the caption describes, what is yr problem

our parish leaders have asked ppl to please stop spreading rumors

[sui generis]

16. READING COMPREHENSION ALERT

ALERT ALERT ALERT and I don't mean the OP

:rofl:

:spray:

[doublethink]

17. NO it's an underwater missile silo the hurricane brought with it ......

and it just shot a missile at the helicopter!! But it missed !! Shit this terrorist war against hurricanes stuff Bush speaks about might have something to it !! OMG !!!!! He's a f .... ing prophet !!!! :)

[sui generis]

20. yeee haw!

;)

[donheld]

18. Indeed it's a sandbag splash

I do agree with a lot of what Minister Farrakhan says, but that is a sandbag splashing into the water.

[demobabe]

19. Of course it's a sandbag

But even if it WERE an explosion, why explode something after it's already flooded? And why explode something again when it's obvious a prior event already broke the levee?

You're kidding, right?

[wellstone dem]

21. Underpants

I think you need to move to a larger size of tighty whities, the pair you have is clearly way to tight.

[Midlodemocrat]

22. It looks to me like an underwater nuclear explosion.

:hide:

[doublethink]

26. Actually it looks like ....

a whale just farted underwater. :shrug:

[MissMarple]

24. Up all night with the baby? Hmm....

:)

[lateo]

25. The levee was already long since breeched when this picture was taken...

Notice that both sides are under water....

[LSK]

27. funny how the water is at the same level on both sides n/t

[Vinnie From Indy]

28. It's just Rush Limbaugh taking a swim n/t

[Ikonoklast]

31. Thar she blows, Cap'n Ahab!

OxyRush, The Great White Whale!


And I DO mean "blows".

:silly:

[Darth Lib]

29. What?

Are you saying that this is a picture of of * blowing the levee?

Why would they need to blow it if it already flooded on both sides?

[underpants]

30. Welcome to DU

It is a sarcastic thread. Making fun or whacked out conspiracy theorists.

[spuddonna]

32. NO! It was the sharks! The sharks ate a hole in the levee!

Can't you see the fins?! :eyes:

:) Thanks for the funny... needed it!

[TallahasseeGrannie]

33. now wait a minute

that's one of those giant sandbags going in. Tell me this is a joke, please.

[underpants]

34. Yes it is

I am trying to make fun of the conspiracy theorists.

Apparently it didn't go over too well.

[TallahasseeGrannie]

35. Phew

okay...it was fun. Glad I didn't fall for it!

[bertha katzenengel]

44. Thinking people aren't immune to suffering from knee-jerk reactions.

Personally, I loved it. :hi:

[Vinnie From Indy]

50. Ya think?

lol!

[WeRQ4U]

36. Wow, that experiment in irony worked like a cement lifejacket huh?

What's funny is that people are so used to insance conspiracy theories on this site, that they wasted no time lambasting you for it. lol.

[underpants]

45. THUD

I was really fishing for the whackjob theory supporters. Hopefully that has mostly been squashed here.

[kick-ass-bob]

38. HOLY SHIT! I CANNOT BELIEVE

how many people do not read the entire message!

:eyes:

[JimmyJazz]

41. OMG - I TOTALLY AGREE!

:P

[atomic-fly]

40. Dang... it BLOWED UP!

[miss_kitty]

42. HaHaHa

some people don't understand the 'Sense of Humour' thing, do they, Mr Pants?

:rofl:

[underpants]

46. Did you see the picture of the 2,000 school buses?

same thing applies

[atomic-fly]

43. why'd they blowed it up?

[miss_kitty]

47. They blowed it up

REAL GOOD!

[Susang]

49. Reading really is fundamental, isn't it?

Bravo! :rofl:
