8. 200 yards? That's a little generous
Besides, the more accurate mode of locomotion for them is slithering, is it not?

10. actually, mayor at Super Dome now ways people will start to march

ABLE bodied people should be allowed to try and get out.

12. The heat and lack of water is a significant problem, though.
It could quickly become a death march.

11. Guess they haven't seen a map of the flood water
where they cover portions of the roads 20 feet deep. Not to mention nothing to drink, nothing to go to unless you wanted to walk 80 miles to Baton Rouge (mostly swamp between N.O. and B.R) or Morgan City (if you could cross the river)

13. my favorite post of the day over there:
"------------------------------------------------------------------------
To: sgtbono2002


I agree with you on this..It is time to bring in the big guns and chase the savages down that are shooting and scaring people..
It is also time that the Liberal MSM and any other dumb a$$ keep their filthy mouth shut and that includes Drudge..I have become so disgusted with the liberal's I can't stand it..They take ever opportunity to attack anyone.In times like these everyone is trying to help..Should Condi Rice be punished because she is an educated black and is not living on the government..I don't think so..We are not the doom and gloom type (Conservatives)we can't all run around wringing our hands we would not get a darn thing done..I wonder how many listened to Rush today..i agree with him all the way..God help us if another liberal makes it to the white house..

18. "...because she is an educated black"
Witness the eloquence and social tact of the common freeper.

Know what I think about people who always say "blacks" and "gays" rather than "black people" and "gay people"?

Subconscious avoidance of the word "people".

"Black" is an adjective, silly freepers. If you ignorant fuckheads even know what an adjective is.

21. Yes, that must be it. We hate when minorities receive an equal
education to the white, surburban, upper-economic-class education. That is why we fight so hard to end No Child Left Unrecruited and other poverty-creating policies.

23. I would say Condi has been 'living on the government' for the last
five years. The last I heard she is Secretary of State or is that considered a private sector job and I am not aware of it!!

14. Heat index of what? 100? NO water for many days. Probably
wouldn't get far and walk to where exactly? Some man who just got to Houston wanted to give a shout out to the President and the Gov and the Mayor and say thank you.

16. What idiots
1) The roads out of the area they are in are flooded. They're in one of the few parts of NoLA that is above sea level. They have nowhere they can walk to without passing through toxic waste infected waters.

2) Why are they just sitting there? They were told to go there. They were told to go to the superdome, and to the convention center, so they went. They were told that they would be evacuated, and given water, they weren't. They're doing what they're told hoping that someone will help them.

3) To the people calling them lazy...you try and do ANYTHING when you haven't had a bite to eat or a drop to drink in over a day in that heat. People are dying. They have no access to water, and no way to get to clean water without the help of high water vehicles or an airlift.

Man they are just miserable people those freepers. They have not only no compassion, but routinely show their ignorance even of brand new events. There are people still dying and they have the gall to call someone who trecked to the convention center because the government told them that they would help them there who haven't had water in days....they have the gall to call them lazy. Freaking idiots.

26. Sometimes I really wish there was a way to send a Savage Beating
Edited on Thu Sep-01-05 03:23 PM by TheWatcher
through the Internet.

And please, no comments about how we "must not sink to their level"

They don't deserve to be treated like human beings, because the are completely lacking in humanity.

It is getting to the point the only way we could sink to thier level is become full blown Nazis.

They are totally undeserving of...Just about anything.

The Freepers are less than garbage.

Raw Sewage is more useful.

27. Tell us how you REALLY feel!
Seriously; I agree; but I am not going to waste my energy on them. I am going to send what energy I have to those who need it; since I can't do a damn thing else. Shit.
