To willfully withhold basic life support from tens of thousands
of desperate people because you think it will discourage evacuation
is—actually, I have no words strong enough for what it is.
Unconscionable. Morally depraved. A crime against humanity. Nothing
seems strong enough.
I have a word for it. Murder.
Which is a gut instinct, totally emotional response, but that is
exactly how it strikes me.
I lurk here almost everyday. I want to thank you for gathering all
this information. I get more sick at heart each day and more
disgusted with how inept the response to this disaster is -- but I
need to know what is going on, to stay informed, so I keep
following links and reading.
And I keep wishing there was a way to totally bypass FEMA and all
the other Federal agencies. They have f*ck*d this up beyond
redemption. I wish they would just get the hell out of the way and
let people who would actually do something in there.
Which will never happen. So yeah, murder sounds right to me.
