Please do not FORGET our Mississippi Gulf Coast which seems to have been placed
on the last page of History;
Do not get me wrong; I' certainly do not discount the flooding of New Orleans as well as any Lives lost;.. but, the truth is, New Orleans is sufferning more so due to " Human " ERROR * Who's Fault is that ? ... City and State Officials, including Louisiana's Governor; ...
If New Orleans Leevee's would have been tended to over the years as they should have been and maintained by New Orleans care takers New Orleans would not be in the shape it is at present; Homes would still be where they were and in liveable condition, Residents would not be dis-placed all over the United States as they still remian; and the LIVES LOST would be only a Horrible nightmare of Someones Dreams; ..
As along our Mississippi Gulf Coastal areas we were hit with High Winds, Tornadoes as well as that perferiable HUGE Tidal surge which NO Seawall nor Leevee system would or could hold back saving us from the devastation that we're suffering through;
We still have Residents who were never found after Katrina nor have returned to some Homes that fortunately were in the same state in-tact as was before Katrina arrived at other doors; therefore with Sadness in my Heart I can and will tell you without a DOUBT these Residents are missed and GONE FOREVER: ... It's bad enough to lose your home & belongings; but how do you recover from the LOSS of a Loved one and not know there whre abouts ! .. Think about it; ...
A lot of people had a REAL False sense of Security due to one major factor; there are those Residents who survived Camile in 1969, therefore elected to remain; " WHY " reports up until the bitter end were not considered as dangerous for the Mississippi Gulf Coast due
