I hope the same thing Bill does...not sure if he's the cat that should say it but regardless he did.........I said the same thing on a thread here a while back.........for yall that don't know N.O. was BUCK......N.O. Police ....BUCK .....now it's true that a lot of folk that lived down there didn't have the financial ability to move but the thing is a whole lot of folk got to move through the evacuation process and some are making the most of their chance to get up......I've talked to many folks that I know from N.O. and most of them are looking at this like it's a positive man so many of them boys have been wanting to get out for the longest and couldn't and now they got that chance.......most of my folks down there say they ain't never going back cept to visit my uncle and some of my cuzzo's are rebuilding but some of my other cousins and their homeboys are out here in CA now making happen........maybe I'm cold but I look at it like this........that storm his in sept....it's now april and folk still crying and moanin bout this and that standing round waiting for somebody to look out fo em......ain't gon happen the ones that can need to get after it ........I had family affected from N.O. , Gulfport,Biloxi, Hattiesburg , Lumberton, Purvis, and Picayune.......they're all either rebuilding or have cashed out and are making it happen somewhere else.........the lower 9th backs up against the levee and I know that yeah some could rebuild and at first I was all for it but when I think about it I'd probably cash out myself and start over because flooding ain't gon stop its a part of life down there....hurricanes same thing and if you standing in your yard looking up at water held in by earthen levees that ain't good in any way shape or form ......I'd be on the outs..........
it's just a trip to me because everybody acting like they shocked everybody knew something like this would happen at one point or another everybody.....
folk act shocked when they hear N.O. pd is kicking arse , they've been one of the most consistently corrupt and violent police forces in America for years both Black and white officers and whatever other nationalities they got in there now...and everybody down there knows it........
Surprised that the govt of N.O. and Louisiana is corrupt and funneling money elsewhere while trying to cover it up......nah....no surprise corruption in Southern govt is as old as Southern govt............the issue is that now all of a sudden........remember now I told yall that Southern society is a closed society...yall only see what we want yall to see.........but now all the folk that thought N.O. was all about a good time, mardi gras,canal street , bourbon street, emeril, good food, Southern Hospitality and all that bull are seeing the real face under the mask............and they're shocked......while we that are from that general area are just looking at this like .......so what's new............
So in my opinion I don't have a problem with what old boy said.......I'm personally tired of some of them folk that 7 months after still ain't working or even trying ......at least put in some effort ........anyway that's my 2 cent on it........
