Upsetting


I plug into the radio on the phone when I'm at work. The news I am hearing is more than a little up-setting.

I cannot fathom why, when people are trying to help you, you loot, shoot at, fight with, and worse rape, your fellow victims. Yes, I use the word victim. Because Katrina affected huge swathes of land. Tragedies like this don't discrinate between the rich or poor, white or black, man or woman. You are ALL in it together.

I cannot help but compare this with the horrendous tsunaimi that wiped out so much last December..... I'm just saying, you understand? But we didn't hear all these terrible, terrible reports then.


Why do you do this?

It is a shame. Though I was raised in America I can not even begin to fathom what is wrong with that country.
I feel sorry for the young and old who have absolutely no control over their situation.
