I thought I'd take a look at how the Freeple are reacting to news of NOLA's demise. Not to feel superior--well, maybe there was a bit of that--but to understand the strange lack of motivation in the national media and political corps to mount an adequate response. (Is it just me, or is there a weird limpness in the national resolve?)
What did I find? Virulent racism interrupted only by bizarro lib-trashing over the issue of SUVs (seems the death toll would have been MUCH HIGHER if damned libs had been successful in forcing everyone out of Explorers and into Priuses!).
The main way that Freepsters are processing the disaster is by harping on the so-called "looters," advocating that they be shot, lynched, etc.
Some choice comments:
- Quagmire Quagmire, we most pull out and let the natives form their own government.
- This is the same thing that will happen if we get a large terrorist attack. The looters will try and take over the countryside where ever the attack occurs.
- A couple of clearly marked LOOTERs, decorating lamp posts might make an impression.
4.It is time to dust off "War Plan White".
5. Lock and load!
Remember how crazy the wingers got when they heard that firemen on 9-11 had to buy bottled water from a Starbucks? They should've looted, eh?
Besides a thread about gas prices, the only other Katrina-related discussion was about a plan to use cruise ships as housing:http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1474371/posts
- Let's hope these are used to housed the elderly, inferm, health, electric and rescue personel and not just reformed looters.
- I may have become too much of a cynic in my old age; but am almost certain those cruise ships will be totally trashed in a matter of weeks and become floating crime waves.
- exactly what I was thinking. The cruise ships would have to glue everything to the walls to keep the looting savages from trying to steal it all.
That last one was by a "Proud USA Republican."
This is what is up, folks. A large American city has been detroyed, but because it is majority-black and low-income the Repubs and their media mouthpieces don't care. All this BS about looting is just a way to make the inevitable abandonment of NOLA's neediest a little more palatable.
We've been talking about message discipline and electability. I think we should be talking about weapons-training.
