I'd really like to see the forums here stick to SL related topics. How does this relate to SL?

Louisiana is the only place I've ever lived where someone goes to jail for trying to buy votes and still gets elected.

What really, really gobsmacked me about New Orleans and Katrina was
1) How little the USA did to help New Orleans
2) That the greed of property developers destroyed natural defences

The US administration did little for New Orleans and couldn't deal with the offers of help from other nations.




Not the job of the Federal government. It is the job of private charities, private companies (check out what Wal Mart did compared to any of the governments, and private individuals. No where in the Constitution can I find permission for disaster relief.

If you are going to help the hurricane victims, why not the people who lose a house to fire? Why not the car wreck victim? Are they not worthy of Federal aid? It is just a matter of scale. Charity and compassion at the point of a gun, which is what all government aid is, is nothing but theft.

"An alternative theory suggests that Weiss was unarmed and had punched Long, not shot him. Instead, Senator Long was struck by a stray bullet from his bodyguards, who shot Weiss because they mistakenly believed that Weiss was going to shoot Long.[16] Former Louisiana state police superintendent Francis Grevemberg supports this view of the shooting."

Love it!

Kennedy shot by Governor Connelly's bodyguard after car backfires.
Grassy knoll blamed.

here is how stupid the smart people are in my town..the district superintendent for the schools in town has lived in the same house for like since he was a kid..his parents gave it to him i guess..

so he makes it to district superintendent 4 years ago and the additions on the house are like 3 times the size of the original house ..he ended up buying the land around him connected to his lot and was digging an in ground pool in this past summer...so he gets replaced and has a good chance of going to prison..

lol i mean..............we are a small town.....everyone knows everyone...........How in the heck did he think he was going to get away something like that?

these are the things that have me looking at moving up north sometimes..i swear lol

because it took 4 years for the town to do anything is another thing that baffles me..

General Welfare clause.

It was good enough for Jefferson to BUY Louisiana in the first place, after all.

They did that in another state too - Missouri, maybe.

And we'll just skip talking about the Illinois politicians all together.

(oh, silly poor people - they don't have -brita!-)

Who's sorry now, who's sorry now,
Whose heart is achin' for breakin' each vow...

Who's sad and blue, who's cryin' too,
Just like I cried over you.,

Right to the end, just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow...

You had your way, now you must pay...
I'm glad that you're sorry now.

You have a choice! We are your voice...
Red, blue or yellow, we will ridicule the green...
Another five-lane motorway,
You'll never even get a referendum anyway.

Funny handshakes, insider dealings...
Et in arcadia arcadia ergo,
Backhanders and salamanders,
A powerhouse that is morally mochila...

SORRR-RRREEE! Democracy is changing...
Sorry! Democracy is changing...

Another slogan or a badge,
Or a cross in the ballot box...
Neither values or objectives,
You do not represent my deepest thoughts and wishes!

Education in obsolete skills,
Stereotyping and media projection...
Industrial psychologists,
Plan a campaign that is financed by big business...

SORRR-RRREEE! Democracy is changing...
Sorry! Democracy is changing...
Sorry! Democracy is changing...
Sorry! Democracy is changing...

You have a choice! We are your voice
Red, blue or yellow, we will ridicule the the green!
