Reply to KATRINA SHOWS THE BUSH PRIORITIES ARE ALL WRONG ! in Politics JoeUser Forums

I also agree with how many people would have actually left. You have people who live in these neighborhoods that do not have much. They are less likely to leave it so that their neightbors can steal it. They knew who their neighbors are and plus, poor people just tend to want to hang on to what they have gotten because of how hard they worked for it. Also understand that lack of education and wealth can create more doubt in understanding of wh

#54 by Community AT Work Thursday, September 08, 2005 I see everyone slamming col, but no one saying anything about the fact that Bush saw what could happen and did not act on the info and later cut the funding to the area in question. <TABLE cellpadding=8 width="95%" align=center

Reply to The Terminator will veto gay marriage bill. in US Domestic JoeUser Forums

I AM O'NALD!!! I WILL TERMINATE THIS BILL! I actually think the bill is correct. Goverment should not say who you can be married to. Goverment and marriage should only go as far as reconizing that you want to be with this person ie this person being any sex. It is such a hot topic as some feel it will further desroy the family unit. Personally, I think other things destroy the family unit (pre-packaged music, tv, radio, advertisi

Reply to School Buses Not Good Enough in Politics JoeUser Forums

LOL I probably shouldn't make fun of the mayor of NO but when I hear him talking I feel very uneasy. He seems to talk as if he is around the way instead of more stately (I think he can still be 'cool' or 'in touch' and talk stately at the same time... others do it) The buses could have made 2 trips at least, and with a special area of the highway for them, the trip would have been faster than 2 hours. So instead of 28000 people, w

Barbara Bush: It's Good Enough for the Poor in Politics JoeUser Forums

I haven't seen it in the ranting and ravings of either side. I think and I hope not to enflame anyone on age, but she is getting older and not as press savvy. So even if the words are in context, it might not mean what people are making it out to be. "Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality. And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this, this is working very we

Reply to School Buses Not Good Enough in Politics JoeUser Forums

LOL This is why I blaim him more than anyone else. someoone commented that 700 busses wouldn't hold 3500 people... what kind of math is that? Each bus could hold 40 people so clearly that is not 3500 it more like 28000. Greyhound buses can hold more people (around 47 sitting and maybe 17 standing), but are you going to wait for a for profit business to send buses to you? Into danger? Loosing money, damaging buses AND possible loss of revenue??

*sigh* Jark might actually own dA, but he might not win. Spyed didn't do what he did just because. He probably knows the law well enough in the incorporating state to do what he did. In the end, he can just loose it all, just like I did.

Reply to Errol Lewis: Why we couldn’t save the people of New Orleans in Politics JoeUser Forums

What is funny about rebiulding NO is that there are so many people willing to say that we are in a war. While I would not totally consider what is going on a war specifically (it more akin to the war on crime or the war on drugs), this war on terror is obviouly taking more resources than any other war on whatever. I'll also admint that because of the wolrd state of affairs since 9/11, the US is on a war stance. So how, exactly, c

Reply to Errol Lewis: Why we couldn’t save the people of New Orleans in Politics JoeUser Forums

I wonder if littlewhip is reading this? It still comes back to what I have said before and want people to understand: Black people do not have generations of wealth, education, and family (Mother, Father all in one house) behind it. It has only been 30 years since most of the laws in this land changed AND actually were used to make life better for people of color

Because the mayor is an incompetent boob. Exactly... I wonder if the people of NO think that? I sure do. It is becoming very clear that he did not do his job at all. He knew what was coming and it was him who mad a mandatory evacuation 24 hours before the stormhit. 24 hours??? Give me

Reply to Evil Capitalists trolling the nets.. in Internet WinCustomize Forums

Sometimes, when I am being called an evil capitalist or some sort of spammer, I take what people are saying personally. I usually don't, but when it comes to that I do. I think I take it personal because I am the total opposite of a person who would spam. I once was one of those callers who had to call your house. I did it for a month and I felt horrible inside. oh well, Frogboy, I think you just have to get used to it. eve

Reply to Hurricanes and Street Gangs in Current Events JoeUser Forums

"And how many of them do you see stalking city streets?" I think that is the point. You don't see them at all. Until you do something to them or bother their actions... and their actions is to take what is yours. The characteristic is still the same. The Mob is a great thing for your community, untl they feel your not needed anymore. When it comes to gangs, the dea rise again.

Reply to Hurricanes and Street Gangs in Current Events JoeUser Forums

We need to view taking out the gangs as a military action with the appropriate resources and actions for that perspective. Even to the point of placing military snipers on rooftops to take out armed gang members the moment they become visible on the street, before they can kill or injure yet another innocent person. I actually agree with that one. I may be more relaxed on it, but once a gang becomes a major menace and the police or the to

Reply to Kanye West adds more fodder to racial divisions over Katrina in Politics JoeUser Forums

I think what many black people do not realize is that we have actually come a long way. Yes there are still problems and yes we fill most of the poor category, but it is becoming more and more about class then race and I think we need to see that. I heard about the situation with the buses and the tourists and I am sure many will think racism first because we are just used to it being racism, but it was class and money. Tourists
