THE STATE HAS NOT REPORTED ON THE TOWNS BELOW NEW ORLEANS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE RIVER..I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE IS STILL ALIVE..GOD HELP US
 
The state governments of the affected states have limited resources. There are no communications within and to the outside of the affected areas. Most have no transportation in and out unless by boat or helicopter. My sister told me that at least one state has asked for volunteer boats. the states nor the Fed were anywhere near prepared for a disaster this big. Rolling the National Gaurd and Reserves takes time to assemble the men and supplies. Ohio, Michigan, Indiana and Pennsylvania have sent Gaurd and reserves. They are bringing supplies for themselves so they aren't contibuting to the problem.

My point of view is that there isn't anybody in charge. Efforts will be duplicated. Volunteers aren't being utilized enough. Average ordinary guys and gals would have gotten the efforts going sooner and more organized. They wouldn't accept NO as an option. They would be like John Paul Jones who fought a naval battle on Lake Erie in the War of 1812. His ship was sinking and he was outnumbered. The Brittish commander ordered him to surrender. He's the one who said "Dam the torpedos, full speed ahead". His ship went ahead and attacked the Brittish ship, took it over and won the battle.
 
MY HEART GOES OUT TO THE OLD FOLKS AND SMALL CHILDREN..EVERYONE GOT THE WORD TO LEAVE..THESE PEOPLE DID NOT.SOME BELEVIED THEY COULD NOT,SOME STAYED TO STEAL WHAT THEY COULD..EVERYONE THOUGHT THE STORM WOULD WOULD PASS AND ONLY A FEW WOULD HAVE DAMAGE..EVERYTHING WAS ALL RIGHT UNTIL THE LEVEE BROKE.THINGS WAS BAD ENOUGH BUT IT WENT DOWN HILL FROM THERE. THOSE WHO THOUGHT THEY COULD"NT LEAVE FOUND OUT THEY HAD TO..THE WOMAN GOVERNOR WE HAVE COULD NOT MAKE A DECISION THAT WOULD HELP.THE MAYOR OF NEW ORLEANS COULD NOT EITHER.EVERYONE WANTS TO BLAME SOMEONE ELSE.
LOUISIANA IS KNOWN FOR IT'S CORRUPTION, NOW IT WILL SHOW UP BIG TIME.
GOD BLESS...HENRY
 
and yes there will be a lot of finger pointing when the real death toll figures start rolling in. A lot more could have been saved if they would have reacted sooner. However those that decided to tuff it out played a deadly game with their own lives.
Bless you my brother.
