Re: Carrie...you ignorant slut.
 

You ARE an idiot. Don't be mad because I'm stating the obvious. I can compile a list of my points that you're apparantly too stupid to comprehend. I NEVER said anyone would rape, murder, or even loot. what I DID say, was that you CANNOT say you would or would not do those things in that situation.

Aparrantly you're also either too ignorant or again, too stupid to realize in a situation as such, "rational thinking" takes a back seat to the basic instinct to survive. Now I'm sure, as you've done so eloquently already, you will decide to try to put words in my mouth by saying i'm now advocating that raping and robbing people are survival instincts, so allow me to nip it in the bud. I'm not. In ANY crisis situation of this magnitude there will ALWAYS be predatory people looking to take advantage of it. This crisis being in New Orleans (not known as a crime-free city anyway) makes the situation potentially more explosive then say, Hartford Connecticut. It's bound to happen though very unfortunate

If you knew ANYTHING about New Orleans, you'd know the 9th ward is one of the most ghetto areas of NOLA, if not the worst ghetto in the city, probably in the entire southeast region as well. Magnolia projects (the nolia), Calliope projects... where the majority of New Orleans rappers come out of (the shit they rap about really does go on down here) aren't exactly resort destinations and already have an absurdly high crime rate to begin with. Like I said, this shit would STILL be going on if Katrina didn't hit. Just the fact that 5,000 news organzations are now focused on the city people get to see what most of New Orleans is ACTUALLY like. 90% of the world has only ever seen the French Quarter. The FQ comprises maybe 5% of the city, the rest is pretty fuckin shitty. You're apprantly one of those people.

So again, so we're clear. I'm NOT condoning anything they're doing, I'm not excusing it nor am I defending it. I'm just saying, until your ignorant ass is stuck on a roof for what will be 7 days now with no food or water, in 105° + degree heat, surrounded by dead, floating bodies, human waste and all types of bacteria in 6' of water, you CANNOT say you wouldn't do the same thing.

You can't. PERIOD You may like to THINK you wouldn't, but you most assuredly cannot say for certain you wouldn't. Sorry

Re: Carrie...you ignorant slut.
 

Bottom line, nobody can say for sure how they would react to the traumas that the people of New ORleans & other areas affected by the hurricane have gone through. I'm going to focus on just NOLA though, because the hurricane was just the beginning (and by now in my opinion one of the smallest) of their problems

It is a reference to Saturday Night Live back in the day. Akroyd and Curtin did a thing called "point-Counterpoint" where they would debate an issue. Akroyd often began his argument with "Jane, you ignorant slut"

Does having to explain that make you feel as old as it does me?

Re: Carrie...you ignorant slut.
 

Quite :blink:

Re: Carrie...you ignorant slut.
 

Thats a great line, Vick :) How is everything over there?

Re: Carrie...you ignorant slut.
 

Remembering when Saturday Nite Live actually didn't suck total ass is enough to label one as old. :(

Re: Carrie...you ignorant slut.
 

For Christ's sake. You don't even realize when you're contradicting yourself. You don't even realize when you are condoning the actions of others by excusing them or making excuses *for* them. I'm starting to wonder if you even know what "contradiction" and "condoning" mean.

First you start out by excusing them because of the situation they're in. Then when that doesn't work you try excusing it by saying they can't use it, so who cares anyway. Then when that doesn't work you try excusing them by saying they've always been like that, it's a bad part of the town. I mean for god's sake man, give it up.

Keep repeating yourself and chanting how we'd all sink to that level, and keep making excuses for how the animals (oh look, I said it again) acted. Maybe if you say it often enough you won't feel so guilty about knowing *you'd* quickly act the same way.

The sandbox is all yours. Have fun.

I gotta admit, if i went a couple of days without food and couldn't walk anywhere without stepping in dooky, I might get mean.

Re: Carrie...you ignorant slut.
 

Doing well Biggy, how about yourself?

The line is not mine and I forget who it came from

Last night I received a phone call about performing/doing a benefit for the 400 people that will be coming here to the DC armory (I didn't even know about it until I got the phone call) from New Orleans

Took me about 2 seconds to say yes

Action at the federal level started really rolling on Thurs night I believe.

A coincidence?

Re: Carrie...you ignorant slut.
 

You really are TOO FUCKING STUPID to comprehend basic english aren't you? I must have used too many big words that you didn't understand because you're STILL putting words in my mouth. "And then you try to say new orleans would have been that way" yeah, I said that in my 2nd post, I didn't have to change strategies or anything or put your ignorant ass in place.

Feel guilty? lol, you must not know me very well. Oh yeah you don't know me at all. I'm not the guilty conscience type. I can't say what I'd do in that situation, I'm not stranded in new orleans am I? I very well may go crazy and rape someone, or murder someone or club a baby seal, who knows? But one thing I can tell you is that I won't lie to myself and say I absolutely would not do those things. Under normal circumstances... No I wouldn't. But under extreme conditions like these, I absolutely can not say I wouldn't and neither can you, or ANYONE else for that matter. As much as I would like to *think* I wouldn't do those things, I not foolish enough to say it's couldn't happen. Idiot. You're STILL MISSING THE POINT. Read it slowly, get an adult to explain it to you if necessary, but understand this point. *No one can say for certian what they would do unless they themselves are in that situation* Read it again, and again, and keep reading it until you understand exactly what it is I'm saying and then please show me where I said it was ok, since I "condone it"

When you learn to read and comprehend english, let me know. Talking to you is like talking to a sock full of rusty nickels. Must suck having to go through life with a 3 year olds level of comprehension. I apologize, I'll let you go back to playing with your blocks or whatever it is you use to amuse yourself because you're obviously not bothering to read anything before you open your idiot mouth and try to put words in mine.

Sin...:wub: ...someday, when this is all over, you, WT, Red and I will all do lunch.
Delivered by room service, of course. :yowsa:

Now, once all of you stop picturing that...I'd like you all to take a deep breath. This thread desperately needs a collective deep fucking breath.

Absolutely nobody is justifying "rape and murder." Self-defense is *not* murder. Anyone attempting to harm my family will be killed. I've known that since the previously mentioned eldest child was laid in my arms for the first time...and I stopped being a child and turned into a parent. Parents are about one crisis away from becoming one of our ancestors. (I'm not talking grandparents here...I'm talking about the odd forehead ancestors in the caves.)

The old saying is "a little lower than the angels, a little higher than the animals" or something like that. Sometimes, gloriously, as humans we're very close to the angels - especially in crisis situations. In a severe crisis, you often see the true majesty of the human spirit. (Remember the pics of the guy on the wire dangling down to rescue people off of rooftops? You were looking at somebody very close to the angels at that moment. He was risking his own life to save total strangers.)

Other times in a crisis we're a lot closer to the animals. Ever see a dog who's just given birth? Mamma won't let you get near the puppies. She'll take your arm right off. Parent birds have that "flop around on the ground pretending to be wounded" thing down cold...to draw a predator away from the nest. Cute little fuzzy bunnies that make great pets fight like nothing you have ever seen to protect their young. So will humans. Admitting that is nothing more than admitting nature.

It's only being honest to say that we don't know to what we'd be reduced in the kind of crisis Katrina delivered. I'm a very nice person. I like to think of myself as a very nice person. But when I looke up at that picture of my daughter, with her bright smile, I know there are no lengths to which I would not go to preserve her life. I have three daughters biologically, one daughter we took in, one son we took in, and a large list of kids that spent a lot of time at my house and called me "Mom." I've *already* broken laws for those kids. I've signed things their parents should have signed; I've pretended being their mother at parent/teacher meetings so that I could find out what was really going on with them at school...things too numerous to mention.

Would I break more laws for them? I'm going to go out on a limb here and say..."yes."

We all have a "survival instinct." It's part of being human. It's made it possible for us to explore this planet, to carve out new countries...and to live through the countless crises humans have been handed throughout history.

The only difference between me and other people is that my instinct would kick in harder and faster than other peoples. Not just because I have a family...but because I'm one of those people in wheelchairs who had a regrettable tendency to end up dead. Every day of my life is already a fight. A crisis would intensify my fight, because I know I'm not going down without a fight. Not ever.

Now that I've gutted myself emotionally for this thread, I wish to fuck you people would stop calling each other names. It's really beginning to bug.
