This was e-mailed to me by a friend living in South Louisiana;
Hey there, well we finally got power back so im able to get online again. Some since of normal again. Well I am writing to every I know who lives out of Louisiana, im very frustrated and upset about the things taking place around here. And if you wouldn't mind send the message around where u live about us down here, 1. Louisiana is made of more than just New Orleans. After the first storm CNN reported that New Orleans was ok so the storm was not bad. Tell that to me and thousands other who cant even go home. 2. FEMA should be shut down. Tell the people in your community that if disaster comes don't depend on fema at all. I evacuated to miss for the first storm with 500.00 dollars to my name after hotel and eats and fuel i came home with 20.00 to my name. Called fema and they told me they were doing nothing because Louisiana takes too much of there money. So now i live at my moms cause even though the power and water came back on, i can't pay my bills. I did what my government told me to do by evacuating and now i need them, guess what nobody is there.
3. I am so tired of people sayin why do they rebuild there, let me address this right now, why does Los Angeles rebuild eveythime there is an earthquake? Why does the plains of the country rebuild after a tornado? Witch tornadoes happen more often than hurricanes do? WE NEED HELP here and because we are not New Orleans we can't get anything. Please all my friends from everywhere post this at your jobs at your home and let everyone in the nation know we are good people and work very hard for the only place we have ever known as home. Think about every time you use fuel and eat crawfish, that does not come from NEW Orleans. It comes from southern parishs of Louisiana. They screwed up or islands and killed our wetlands so they can drill for oil. And then charge us more money for fuel and don't put anything back into they community from what they take.
JUST SOME THINGS TO THINK ABOUT. For anyone who wants to listen and takes the time to read this THANK YOU.
FROM: Your friends in Terrebonne Parish Louisiana
I went through Hurricane Katrina & Rita, I moved to New Mexico a few months after. My friend wanted me to let anyone & everyone what she & other people living in Houma (and surrounding areas) are going through. She feels she is getting ripped-off because she has done everything the authorites have asked (or told) her to do, & now she (and other families) need help rebuliding their lives. She has informed me she isn't getting the help she needs. If this is in the wrong web site, please e-mail me at [email protected] with the correct web sites.
I thank you for your time & effort.
