Go head Channing! csm

I must admit that I did not hear about 'the rappers' great deeds that where done. I stopped watching the horrific devestation when the people that where stranded was telvised (all over the world) holding there babies up, saying stuff like, "what are you gonna do for me now." Where were they BEFORE the hurricane? Maybe it is just me, but, if I see devestation coming, my first thought is protecting my children. This did not just suddenly blow up overnight. I heard about a little boy that stole a herse to flee the waters. Where were his parent(s)? Thank God, He was watching over him. Anyways, I think YOUR article is racist, because nobody wants to give credit to the 'black' rappers. Need a titty to suck on? Sorry, but that's the way I feel. Everybody is like, "poor poor me." The rappers didn't feel that way when they sent truck loads and cleaned there closets out. By the way, is the first time they have done this, or do they do this often? Just wondering.

Let me ask this, I am a native of the Augusta area, still read the paper everyday online, where were the rappers when Hurricane Rita hit the Texas gulfcoast? I have lived in Texas for over 12 years now. Let me assure you the people of New Orleans have been more than properly been taken care of by everyone including the by Texans and are still being taken care of by every organization available. They have flooded our hotels, houses, and apartment complexes that weren't torn to bits in our storm and we have over 20,000 people homeless from just the apartments alone that have been booted from their hometowns because of Katrina evaucees. Our help has been hindered and almost ceased to go back to help the people of New Orleans even more. We left as we were told to do. The biggest issue is that we have people here that are still waiting for help and can't get it because of Katrina although these people had jobs and were the ones who worked and paid in their tax dollars to FEMA and donated to Red Cross, Salvation Army and any of the other organizations. We had 2 days of media coverage and are still in a state of shock. Our towns are still torn up, but we get out and help our neighbors clean up their yards and businesses, we didn't loot and take advantage, I guess that's why there will be no benefit for us.

if i was a rapper i think i might sample that song by KATRINA & THE WAVES........

WALKING ON SUNSHINE is the song, right?

how ironic....

katrina.....& the waves.....

nevermind.

touche and with that, good work in educating the public of our failure to acknowledge. Sometimes we overlook the little and big people.
