'Life of the Party'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Damn. Several times, snipers have fired on a hospital, preventing it from being evacuated, with the National Guard right there!
I'm not blaming the National Guard for not immediatly finding the sniper - I'm just amazed at the amount of crazy it takes to do this.
Jack Cafferty is my new boyfriend. Yeah, he's old and wrinkly but DAMN he just said EXACTLY what I was thinking.

Yeah, what's this all about? I'm well aware I'm coming from a position of privilege here, but I. Don't. Get. It.
How can this possibly benefit the snipers? Have people just broken with reality and are trying to exert some sort of control, over something, anything?
Or do people just suck *that* much, when the chips are down?

The only thing I can think is that it's a nutter with a gun.

I don't get why people would do this. Also, this is one of the rare cases where I would be in favor of the Nat. Guard or some such going in and terminating with extreme prejudice.
You can see the rover's robotic arm in the foreground.
And that's the BEST part of the whole rover!

Me, too.

I guess. They do exist, even sans hurricane or other natural disaster.

Let me rephrase what I said earlier.
This is motherfucking bullshit.
We are the largest, most powerful, richest country in the world. We whip out cock out and the rest of the room gets out of the way.
And yet, we can't even do simple things like get relief supplies into NOLA.
People were all "this isn't anything like the tsunami." Absolutely. The relief process was actually organized for the tsunami.
This. Is. Grand. Mother. Fucking. Bull. Shit.
I have been parentally disappointed with my country many times in my nearly 33 years on this planet. This is the first time I have been ashamed to be an American. And I mean that. I am fucking ashamed to be an American.
FUCK.

This is exactly where I am. I get a certain amount of looting and chaos, but the deliberate evil that seems to be going down has me boggled.
I know New Orleans had the highest murder rate in the country not all that long ago (it may still have; I haven't seen stats recently), but, even so, this is just crazy.
I've been avoiding the news like the plague - I watched WAY too much after 9-11 and I just can't do that again.
