They're reporting today that people were taking dumps in the kitchen of the Superdome because they were afraid to go get raped by the gangs in the bathrooms.
Also, they're reporting that the first Red Cross truck full of supplies was turned away by the Louisiana Department of Homeland Security (not Federal level there) because the LA DOHS didn't want people to flock to the Superdome.
I guess it still pisses me off that the masses didn't band together and take care of these thugs, but then again that's the way it always is. 100 people can keep 100,000 people pacified with the threat of violence...

I saw Jesse Jackson last night on Hannity and Colmes - he was asked about the Red Cross being turned away by the city at the superdome. He said they were turned away by the "Department of Homeland Security". But he failed to add Louisianna in that statement. Colmes was questioning so he didn't correct him.........

Great pictures. The new issue that people are now facing is mold. I was watching CNN and they had a story on the people returning to their homes where the flood waters have now receeded and mold is growing up the walls of their house. In a week to two weeks, the mold will grow up the walls until the house is unlivable and has to be torn down. So just when people were relieved that they still had a home, the infested waters will slowly destroy it.

Just thought I'd share my Katrina experience with you all....
This may be sorta vague, has to be, you know all that tell you kill you stuff......
We flew into New Orleans the day after the hurricane to secure the airport, and to set up flights into and out of the area. The airport was a mess, with peeps all over the place.
So those of us there started doing every kind of airport work imaginable, from driving those little tugs to screening workers and such.
But MY public service to the people of N.O.? Laying in the grass in the rain by a fenceline with a rifle ready to kill some looters or airport fucker-uppers.
Who said the Federal Government never did anything for these people
P.S. plz keep this under wraps, if you know what I'm sayin' :0

Nice sounds like fun. The day after the hurricane that place must have been a mess. See any water? Or is the airport high enough up in the city.
ps.. we can always move threads like this into the private area if you want.

I'm not sure I can access the private area...
anyways, as long as it stays really non-descript, that's no problem.
The airport was relatively dry, but still a mess.
Cajuns REALLY stink after wading in sewage for a few days, more than I think a regular Minnesotan would
