I'm taking the liberty of explaining what Mary meant when she wrote what she wrote. I'll let her do that. But, I stand by what I wrote; just take out the first three words in my post.

But, I stand by what I wrote; just take out the first three words in my post.

Peeved guy: thats what she may have meant but it is not what she wrote. I only take people for what they write and not what I think they meant. If I got it wrong shame on me for not figuring out what the intent of peoples writing is. it is time that we should consider not building cities in the path of major disasters and I think leaving the gulf coast as a natural park.

This is akin to the folks that live right next to the Mississippi River and are surprised when they get flooded. Or the folks that build their house on a cliff in California and are shocked when the mudslide takes their home with it. I agree with her (in essence), if you want to live there, be my guest, it's a free country, <strong>but</strong>, when don't expect me to bail you out with my tax dollars.

Where will we all go? Empty California, there might be an earthquake or wildfire or mudslide. Move everyone out of the mid-west and away from any river that may flood. We will also need to move everyone from Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and anywhere else a tornado could happen. Then we need to move everyone from Hawaii, a tsunami could hit there. Alaska has earthquakes and snow. All of the Eastern seaboard and gulf coast could be hit by a hurricane. Where will we put 300 million people Mary. Where do you live that is not in the path of any possible natural disaster. Come on Mary, give us some answers not just stupid remarks, where is the citizenry of the world going to live. Shawn: why do I keep posting answers to all these stupid people. Are there that many unintelligent people who write stupid remarks to these blogs. Should I just go away and keep my answers to myself?

Do you think that the United States is the only place that there is weather? Hurricanes have been hitting North America since before written records, snow happens anywhere it gets cold, wind happens where there are convergences of frontal systems, rain happens everywhere also, earthquakes although not weather, happen on every fault line seperating continental plates. If you live in the U.S. and you hate it so much why don't you leave, please. We have many different cultures living in harmony, freedom of religion, (why the new world was inhabited by Europeaners) freedom of speech, (which is what gives you the right to be hateful of the U.S.) the citizens are the most generous in the world. No other government or citizenry offers more help to the world during disasters. So did God kill the people in Haiti when Gustav hit there? How about the loss of lives in Cuba? Did God kill 70,000 people in China because their government is Communist? So instead of killing the whole world like he did in the big flood saving only Noah and his family, he is killing only a few at a time. The only thing Reverand Wright is correct on is being an anti-American racist. The U.S. may not be perfect but we are the best place to live in the world right now.
