KSig, I feel your point, and I don't at all doubt that there are many people who are just taking advantage of the situation. My point is just that there are some who are not, and they don't deserve to just be tossed away. Everyone on here admits that there are people who are doing what they have to do to survive (stealing food & supplies), however, the president has said that there should be zero tolerance making them criminals as well. According to PM_Mama00's plan they along w/the 3 mentally ill people should just be abandoned to the Superdome. Of course I do not believe that this is actually what she wants done, but I do think that this hasty 'lets just lock up or segregate the bad people' attitude reflects some larger issues in our society, which disgusts me.

Holy effin shit batman when did I say that the mentally ill should be left there too? STOP PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH or keyboard or whatever the hell you wana call it. Did you read my whole post? And btw I was gona tell you that I didn't think of it that way but since you're gona keep ASSUMING things then what's the point?

And valkyrie, I never told people to feel sorry. There's one thing to not feel sympathetic towards people, it's another thing to make fun of them. And overweight people trying to do something about it are ALOT different than drug addicts who do nothing but hurt society. When was the last time you heard of an overweight person mugging someone to get money to feed their addiction?
