New Orleans had the highest crime rate in the WORLD right before Katrina..do you think this hurricane was like a "punishment?" Some think so...but the punishment did not work...again New Orleans is back to being the murder capital of the world..!! sad thing is when disasters like this happen, innocent people and animals suffer for the deeds of others..pictures are disturbing..

I've never seen a emergency response so fucked up in my lifetime.
I never thought I'd see that many dead bodys left to rot for days in a developed nation, because nobody had a plan to get in and help people.
Very sad.

And that's not including the fact that missing persons in the area are immensely under-reported, plus it's an area that makes body disposal very easy, so the murder rate is most likely far higher than the official statistics would indicate...that said, there are areas in mexico near the US border such as Ciudad Juarez that are even harder to keep track of deaths in, and they are most likely deadlier places to live in than NOLA

One thing that really sticks out in my mind about Katrina is... watching people loot the stores, taking Nike tennis shoes, and big screenTVs. Looked like some were pretty much helping themselves to just about anything they could get their hands on. They could have been trying to help each other but there's no money in that. I wonder where the hell they thought they were going to get electricity to watch those TVs . Did they need to take 'all' of those Nikes? What a joke!!!

[DarwinsMistake]

Should I put the TV back now?My Nike's are worn out too Damn what was I thinking...

That is So sad.I lived in Louisiana at the time of Katrina,we had some damage,not as bad as the city,I lived about 90 miles south,in South Lafourche Parish.We had no, lights for weeks,electric workers from Texas would give my kids jello and water.Cable came on 1-2 weeks after the lights,People were carrying guns around and fighting over bread,milk,gas,fruit it was so sad.We got a few boxes of MRE'S to eat on.I've been through lots of storms,but Nothing like Dennis,Katrina and Rita all a few weeks or so apart.and that is why I moved back home to Mass.
