it wasn't a very smart idea to pretty much build a town over water... I guess there's a possibility that there may no longer be a new orleans.... sucks for the people who live there, it's too bad, but nothing really anyone can do

I guess they could have said that about grand forks in 97 or Devils Lake since 1994... or the millions of other areas that see 100+ year floods

theres plenty of huges cities on the water taht can get hurricanes. Miami, Orlando(45 min it,same difference), tampa, hell even Houston can get a hurricane.Its not that its ont he water, its the fact that its over 10 feet below sea level tahts letting it kick its ass. Plus i spose it doesnt help having a gigantic lake north of it.

thats true....

New Orleans is about 10ft below sea water, to make matter worse, one of the nation's largest lake is on one side, mississippi on the other side. New Orleans is like a crater.

Shit has now officially hit the fan. According to foxnews due to the rampant crime in New Orleans the mayor of New Orleans has just released a statement telling all police officers to vacate the city and let the military deal with it. They were showing clips of the looting, fighting, etc... it is getting pretty nasty. Many people are saying it will be a full blown riot by tomorrow morning.

What I think is worst about this whole situation is that BOTH sides are trying to politicize this. NOONE was at fault. Most of us are probably thinking "They knew the damn hurricane was coming, why didn't they leave?" Reality is, not everyone had a means of leaving. Even some of those with cars had no way to leave (roads overly congested, immovable relatives/loved ones at home, fear of leaving behind what is familiar, denial, nowhere to go, unable to afford to stay in a hotel or other lodging, no vehicles, etc...)
Thats not a political issue, thats just the facts. I find it incredible that 80% of N.O. managed to get out of town before it hit. That number is quite impressive.
But you're right Kirk, some far left liberal will probably take exception to the way looters and rioters are being treated by law enforcement. I guarantee you that not all will however.

I found something kind of funny on the internet after I heard this on ESPN Radio.......
Yakuza Caused Katrina
Weatherman Scott Stevens claims that "Japanese gangsters known as the Yakuza caused Hurricane Katrina." Here are more detailsScott Stevens says after looking at NASA satellite photos of the hurricane, he is convinced it was caused by electromagnetic generators from ground-based microwave transmitters. The generators emit a soundwave between three and 30 megahertz and Stevens claims the Russians invented the storm-creating technology back in 1976 and sold it to others in the late 1980s. Stevens says the clouds formed by the generators are different than normal clouds and are able to appear out of nowhere and says Katrina had many rotation points that are unusual for hurricanes. At least ten nations and organizations possess the technology but Stevens suspects the Japanese Yakuza created Katrina in order to make a fortune in the futures market and to get even with the U.S. for the 1945 bombing of Hiroshima.
