oops. i'm sorry. i meant some people are just disadvantaged and don't have the same opportunity as others to succeed and if we only did something to give them a chance, they wouldn't be poor. we're all equal.
there are many people who need help in NO.
but there are many that shouldn't be helped at anyone else's expense.

We had a severe typhoon hit us a couple of weeks back...during the middle of this some idiot decided to take his wife to the beach and show off that he could swim in typhoon waters...well within 30 seconds of him hitting the water he got swept away and then the rescue services spent the rest of the day in dangerous waters, risking their own lives for this fool, needless to say they didnt find him. The heard needs to be culled in some way...and people like this moron should be left to their own demise imo
If people in NO are given the opportunity to leave and find safe shelter and they decide to stay, even after what happened during Katrina then let themt...but I wish there was a stipulation that if you refused to be evacuated then you're on your own and no help will arrive if you get in trouble.
