Hmmmmm..lots of people in trouble

yep. I feel sorry for them.

well let's just pray for them and for their country..donations can help a little....

HOLY CRAP. despite this hurricane only being a level 2 storm (only he says) the major damage really occurs because the place it hit is 2 meters below sea level and water levels tend to rise 2 hours before the storm hits. this level huricane can reach speeds of 96-110 mph (119-153 km/hr) and these types of huricanes are capable of lifting poorly anchored boats which was why people saw boats flying into buildings. by the time the huricane reaches the main land which is a looooong way it shouldn't do as considerable damage as it did round the coast. we just have to pray that the huricane doesn't go to a category 3 because then we'll be getting about 5 ft of water 8 miles inland and we'll start seeing structural damage as well. (hahaha i know too much about huricanes)

Woah! Sugoi F.Angel!!! But how much do you know?I'm very impressioned!

just heard the news in tv....i felt so sad when i saw the woman who is short in insulin...she almost having convulsions together with hunger! Also, i was surprisded when i saw the newspaper yesterday....three boats were in the land....woah...this is more horrible than in here...

Yeah the damage is great lives were lost.But that's the price to pay to live near the ocean.No matter where you live there is always a price to pay.

damn....... how could this possibly happen in the UNITED STATES!!!! it's the world's 1st power!

human delusions of granduer mean nothing to nature Morphee... all human power is ultimately null and void in these situations...

Yeah well it depends on where disaster hits wether they are powerful country or not.....

Usually States over by the gulf of mexico always gets hit...such as Lousiana or georgia, florida

no i didn't mean that!!!! i meant that, since USis the world's 1st power.... you could've expected a little more stuff to prevent or a little more protection.... those in place where defenetly not enough and where "too old"....

WTF this is getting messed up now.

Actually, this stuff was bound to happen. When tragedy strikes , human compassion is the first thing shown. However, in a surprisingly small amount of time, greed and anger rear their ugly head. Refugees are coming into my city now, and from the stories that have come out, the worst is yet to come. A man shot his sister in the head over a bag of ice. Greedy storeowners are charging $10 u.s. for a bag of ice and $6 u.s. a gallon of fuel. And because of the rioting, they wont let other Firefighters volunteer to help because we'll probably get shot. Amazing how sour things get real fast huh?

10,000 dead, rioting, murder, a five day response time... This just keeps getting worse...

....much worse if the affected towns were going anarchy...
