Default Re: FEMA gives away $85 million of supplies for Katrina victims

One thing's for sure. If the people who didn't want to leave their homes were one can short of a six pack, that mining disaster in the east showed us white people can act stupid on T.V. too.

I've met several "displaced" Katrina people across the country while traveling with my husband. All of them said they were better off. And that includes some whites and some blacks.
If I had had the luck and grace of God to escape such a storm, I would not set my foot back into New Orleans till officials burned every scrap of everything and started COMPLETELY over. That's what should have been done. But greed and "the tourist trade" wouldn't allow that.
