The poor, homeless, handicapped and much more were basically left to die before the storm hit. Now that we have many survivors, they're still being left to die. I don't want to hear this "looters are preventing" crap either, what it comes down to is that not nearly enough aid was sent to help in the first place. What was it, 2000 troops originally sent? What a fucking joke. These petty and unorganized street thugs wouldn't be running things if our leaders had done thier jobs.

I don't blame the population for looting, stealing and being aggresive now. They're being treated like animals and expendable civilians when in reality they're tax paying American citizens. Anyone here would act the same if they were left for dead by "the greatest country in the world", I know I would.
