Well, this is the 5th day of the disaster and thousands of people are still starving and dying without the most basic supplies or any idea of when things are getting better. An American city has become an anarchy where gang members with guns are terrorizing the poorest of the poor and people are mocked by water being all around them without a damn drop being given to them to drink.
All this points out a sickening glaring hole: This is exactly what could happen in a WMD attack situation and the only conclusion one can draw is that if a major city was ever attacked by a WMD, the residents would basically be left to fend for themselves while the old and infirmed die. Don't think that the terrorists don't see what's going on. They can see how vulnerable we are and our total lack of coordination and planning shows the reverberations that an attack WMD can have on a US city. It also shows that not one dollar we've spent on Homeland security and the War on Terror over the past 4 years has been spent in preparedness for an attack. It's disgusting.
The only other explanation for the attrocities going on is racism. I don't know which explanation is worse.
