A Memorial Build for Hurricane Katrine Victims

I think its a good idea to make something to express our feelings about
the tragedy unfolding before our eyes on television. While we remain
helpless to participate in the rescues and efforts to help people(except
through our donations) creating something in AW to express our feelings
will help our frustration, but also remain for those who return to AW
when the crisis has passed. Hopefully, seeing we cared so much will help
lighten the load they carry. And it can give us time to contemplate and
pray for the victims. For those who choose, life gives lessons through
the tragedies of others, may we rise to the occasion, if we are ever
caught up in a major disaster. For some, terrible circumstances lower
their morals and they become less than human, but others see disaster
and rise above, seeking to rescue and do all they can for all of
humanity. This sure gives us an eye opener and perhaps can trigger us to
prepare too, just in case something unexpected happens and we too are
caught unaware and unprepared. Maybe making an emergency kit, for just
in case, is a good idea.

[View Quote] As nice as the sentiment is, if you want to do something; ensure someone
like Bush never gets in again, that way that person wont half the funding to
the flood protection schemes again.

Cut our losses. Reverse the flood. Save us from more destruction.

Save the Bush bashing and hatred Marky. This isn't the time or place for
it. People in this community have family, friends, or where themselves
caught by this horrendous work of nature.

Your bitching and moaning won't save the world. Actions do. Perhaps you
would like to make a contribution to the Red Cross? I think many people
just do not realize the magnitude of the affected area and number of people
that need help. 90,000 square miles. Put all of England under water,
damage or destroy every structure in it, and displace every citizen, and you
may understand why it wasn't all taken care of the day after.

Our people will have the aid they need from our government and caring
citizens.

You really are too vicious for your own good. Unfortunately while things
could have happened, or should have happened, that is not the intent of the
main post here. The intent is to establish a memorial site for the peoples
lives that have been forever affected by this tragedy; we're not talking
about Bush here, nor is that sentiment appreciated right now. It is not the
time, or the place for it.

I most certainally remember and feel sorry for those who have died in this
terrible event. I will also remember who killed them.

[View Quote] Yes, that was vicious, mild appologies to anyone offended by this, however
my statements are simply based off international news, which we presume is
the truth - and not just some big fake.

Anyone still in there, good luck to you, not that you will probably be
reading this.
