Islandude; Truth always hurts. That's why I did not even flinch at your comment, Islandude. Walker,LA???? Just last week on the Northshore of LA the KKK recruited a woman from Oklahoma and she and the Grand Wizard or whatever argued and she changed her mind about joining that fun group and he shot and killed her. Hmmmmm... Question: Name one other ethnic president of the united states...Spike Lee tells it like it is. Those who are afraid of the truth call him racist/opportunist/angry etc...Name one Ethnic President of The United States, sit and think for minute and then tell me again who is racist. Peace and Prayers. "We are lost because of lack of knowledge."

In the history of the United States of America, there has never been any other race of President. And just like in the history of the United States of America, who has to clean up the mess they left behind? Us. Change is no longer coming. It's here!I did not vote for color, I voted for change, and won.

The ISP is in Walker, brain surgeon...I live in Ventress, far, far away from the northshore

I, as well as every person who has a TV, computer or radio, of the wannabe KKK stuff in the Florida Parishes. It was a Darwinian situation.

another "ethnic" president? Jefferson? He slapped ass on his house woman...

Spike is an opportunist...he'd be just another low-grade film guy if he wasn't black

Looks like Gulf Coast planners would be wise to learn
from the strategies that have been working in Florida
as they've developed plans for dealing with hurricanes.

The terrain in Florida and Louisiana are totally different....

Perhaps spending a bit of money on the coastal erosion, eh?

America will wake up one day..when no oil or gas flows through the state, the main seafood supply is gone and no one can party for Mardi Gras any more

The evacuation preparedness plans are good to apply.
Moving inland during storms is necessary and needs to
be taken seriously. For people catching cruises off
the port cities whether it's Miami, Galveston, etc. the
use of planes and rental cars is prudent.
