The BIG Mess in the Big Easy

The people left behind in NOLA are truly Americas poor, Americas weak and Americas hungry. There are 'thugs' that are corrupt, only because they never knew they had an alternative. The victims of Katrina have become victims of their brothers - people from their own neighborhoods and their own streets. The poor are stealing from the poor. It is completely tragic what is happening and I pray that there is some peaceful resolution for these people and know it is a long shot. This is about being an American and realizing that we've looked the other way for too long. There are open wounds in every city and it just so happens, salt is being rubbed into NOLAs. I hope that I and other people watching this event unfold from afar can figure out a way to make a positive change to correct the imbalance.
