new orleans

By Johny_D_Lewis

down with new orleans
sink it beneath the water
wash all away
clean away the pain

wipe the slate clean
wash away the lost souls
destroy the weak
flush them away

wash the land clean
wash the sin of man away
let all feel the fury
as it is remade again

I have to say.. this is a tasteless. So many people died and there is so much pain there..and you just make is seem like they had it coming. Almost an, "Oh well" attitude. It's really disgusting. This just wasn't....*shakes head*

Agreed. I sincerely hope that you and your family are never put in a situation (which you have no control over, btw) like this one. If you were, your eyes would undoubtedly be open and you would see fit to delete this piece of garbage. -Glass

I assure you if you worked closely with these "sinners".. Cried with them.. Hugged them.. Saw the emotive in their eyes.. And got a simple "thank you" from one of them as you were wiping away their tears..

I understand the thought put behind this, and I have to say it was pretty dumb to build a city on floodlands. But then again, I would have to agree with glasshouse.

i gotta say... not only was this poorly written and ridiculously heartless (there are people on this site who lived or had family there) but in general... it's unfounded.

a hurricane has nothing to do with the sin of man or innocents and rebuilding a city should never rest on the shoulders of the people who did stupid shit like shoot rescuers. and if you arent living that momen, you have NO idea how to assess it

ballsy, i'll admit. but it sounds like a cry for controversy and attention. in fact, i'm kind of sad that i fed into that side of you. only proving a point though.
