PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME AGAIN . . . I MISSED SOMETHING

1. Why the hell we are sending BILLIONS of dollars to New Orleans?!?!? They are in NO way prepared for another disaster, should it occur. Unfortunately, West Virginia is in the same category as Louisiana (minus the fact that we were given billions of dollars to "rebuild". Being in the same category is scary, considering the DuPont plant 20 miles away. Lovely.

I am not exactly sure about this not being prepared map though. Preparedness is up to the individual, to an extent. We have a generator and extra gas in the winter and enough drinking water and food to last for weeks. No flooding here where I live. We have had epic blizzards and well, I don't remember anything bad happening, except, we didn't work for a few days (although Mom did, because she works at the hospital) and the beer stores were closed. LOL

But back to New Orleans, what the shit? They have only 1/2 population back and they are back to shooting each other up, this time
5 TEENS!? What the shit??? Why are we sending them money to rebuild this place that could be completely destroyed again this year and rebuilding what, the drug dealer population??? Saving the heritage?? Move your heritage 200 miles inland. (must say, I got that from Mencia).

2. The guys that committed suicide, by hanging themselves in their cells at GITMO. Their families are questioning their deaths, saying that it is very taboo (a sin?) to commit suicide in the Muslim religion and the families suspect they were murdered. UM WHAT?!?!? What the shit are the "suicide" bombers doing?? It is okay to commit suicide if you say, kill women and children too?????? Hopefully all the "suicide" bombers are in hell, where my religion says they belong, because MURDER is a SIN.

Family member of one of the detainees:

Al-Utaybi's sister said her brother, once an Islamic law student, had beliefs
that would not have allowed him to commit suicide. She acknowledged that he had once surprised his family five years ago by leaving abruptly for Pakistan and then Afghanistan to join "holy war" as a mujahedeen fighter.

So, we shouldn't have held him for 5 years because he was joined in with bin Laden, who declared war on the US and its Western Allies??? The US drove him over the edge because we held him for 5 years, without charges??? Bullshit. We hold those people because they are a danger to the West (us). They are bomb makers, money launderers, people trained to fight and kill people like you and me. These are the people behind the scenes of 9/11.
