15. My god, what a great set of pictures
Each one is heartrending. The one that made me cry was the one on the rooftop, "The Waters Are Rising" and the people waving American flags. Sweet Jesus, could I be any more ashamed of what my country did to its own.

Of course another aspect that your pictures make crystal clear: the people trapped were mostly black. I said it from day one, the government chose to make it a police action against the victims, rather than a rescue action for our own citizens.

Thanks for posting those.
