Good catch Tybee!tybee204 said:BillyGoatGruff
Links from Partisan Political Forums do not belong on this Forum. Websleuths already has a Political Forum. If you are permitted to post a link of this sort then others would have to be permittied to counterpost with links from sites holding their political viewpoints.
In very short order we would have a nothing but a partisan slam fest with half the forum being timed out or banned.
It would easier if the actual mainstream news agencies would hunt down the same information and report this stuff instead of acting as if this was a problem that appeared out of thin air.tybee204 said:MSM articles pertaining to this issue are fine. We are just really trying to keep the partisan blogs and sites off as they are as much opinion as news and tend to just start arguements on whose political agenda is the right one lol or the left one.

Of course, they will be scumbags all over but most just don't want to live like that.The human spirit is a remarkable thing and given a choice most will protect their families. Most will rise above with the opportunity and some will continue in the same vein.

However, few, if any of them, will mention the infilitration of the NO street gangs by former TonTon Macoute from Haiti, about 20 years ago, following the ouster of Baby Doc. The crime had always been bad in NO, but after that the gang violence became particularly virulent and the wreaking of violent retribution against those who spoke out/bore wittness 100% assured in the 9th. I would compare the arrival of the TonTon Macoute in NO to the absorbtion of former KGB and Iron Guard into the Russian Mob/Organizastki in Brighton Beach.tybee204 said:If you look you will find many many MSM reports on crime and corruption in New Orleans pre Katrina.

and now they have all the guns and ammo they looted from Walmart. New Orleans would be like a war zone if they allowed everyone back in now. I would imagine some of those people were in a hurry to return to see what else they could steal, and loot. It will be fertile ground for crime.BillyGoatGruff said:However, few, if any of them, will mention the infilitration of the NO street gangs by former TonTon Macoute from Haiti, about 20 years ago, following the ouster of Baby Doc.

And some are here in Houston, where we are going to get hit by Rita. :chicken: I am grateful we have a farm to go to. Kosse, Texas! :laugh: <Now where the H*LL is that.....you says!?!?!?>Buzzm1 said:and now they have all the guns and ammo they looted from Walmart.

I'll have to look that up on the map. Keep your fingers and toes crossed that Houston doesn't feel much of the brunt.deandaniellws said:And some are here in Houston, where we are going to get hit by Rita. :chicken: I am grateful we have a farm to go to.
