Louisiana and Katrina: Post-apocalyptic?

Post by Geno »

Is it me or does this seems to be an isolated, small post-apocalyptic world? The armed gangs fighting the last remnants of order, people looting everywhere, lots and lots of things lost and people dead. What's happening there is awfully awful, but it seems so much to me like the start of a post-apocalyptic thing...

(If you don't know what's happening at all.... there's nothing I can do for you. Watch the news, read the newspaper, get informed)

Maybe we just like it this way. So shut up.

Yea, you're right. It is kind of post-apoc down there right now. It should be fixed up in the next couple years, though. Hopefully more hurricanes don't hit.

This thread is more on topic in this forum than 90% of all other threads in it.

You are an asshat.

Thats what happens when you build your city below sea level... right next to the ocean.

It wasn't below sea level when it was originally settled.

DAC-CON! This is perfect!
Imagine if places like Bhopal, Chernobyl(difficult at the time...), 3 mile island, Rwanda, etc. attracted pilgrimages even while the events were still unfolding.
The next best thing to pro-active casualty vampires.

Wouldn't it be funny if a bunch of drunk, armed punks descended on the area to take pictures/video, and hand out poisoned food.
Maybe shoot people for fun. Like having a Human Vulture Vacation.
Muhuhahaha!

I hear videotaped gang rapes are hilarious. And shooting your sister over a bag of ice totally gave me the giggles.

Eat shit and die.

You can be the un-un-official DAC-CON scout, aye ? You would like that. I suspect we would like that too.

Recommended equipment includes :

Flare gun, flares, first-aid kit, razors, needles, cyanide capsule(s), powder of spontaneous human children shields, water, alcohol, matches, postcards, pen, silver nitrate, machete, miniature paper umbrellas, a trained, spastic monkey (for reasons of morale), a small fez, diminutive cymbals (past thrice in concert, a handy sniper decoy and/or landmine scout), cocaine, appropriate currency.

Breathe deeply. :drunk:

I was discussing with some people today the idea to build a giant concrete wall around all of New Orleans and send our felons there.

On one side, I think it's kind of shitty. I've got family living there, and one of my friends entire family lives right downtown. Needless to say they were somewhat intelligent about it and got the fuck out when the first "Evacuate Now or Die" was released.

On the other side it's just retarded.
On the news tonight they featured 2 white people trapped in New Orleans. They were Irish tourists with no car. Every other face (other than the broadcaster's) was black.

The most retarded things I've seen thus far:
1. Two black female cops looting shoes at Walmart.
2. A couple of black teenage boys looting boomboxes as they walked past the water bottles and foods.
3. A big black guy looting dried noodles. Ehrm...There's no clean water to cook noodles. And if he's wasting his drinking water cooking noodles, he should just be kicked in the face.
4. A fat black woman running out of a camera store with a bag full of expensive cameras. When asked about it by the reporter, she said "I need these to survive."
5. The rival gangs can't be peaceful for an evening when stuck inside a football stadium together.
6. The dipshits shooting each other over DVD players.
7. The people shooting at rescue helicopters.

Luckily for me, I'm in Oklahoma, the "Come on over and fuck us" state. We're opening all our resort cabins and hotels to these people that lost their homes. Who's more ignorant? a. The dumbasses who didn't leave Louisiana and are now killing each other to get the most "stuff", or b. The legislature of Oklahoma for inviting them to live here.


What a shitty state. I just paid $48 to put 15 gallons of gas in my damned car.

Are you afraid the refugees will be looting Oklahoma stores?
If not, what's your complaint, exactly? Do you live close to a designated refugee camp?
