Welfare State the Real Disaster Behind Hurricane Katrina

A ticking time bomb, a man-made disaster has been awakened by the clash between a dilatory government and its negligent population. Hurricane Katrina, in the end, was unfortunately a disaster waiting to happen.

The mayor of New Orleans, a city that has been labeled as the birthplace of jazz, a sound that distinctly put the city on the map, unenthusiastically suggested that his residents evacuate the city before the giant hurricane arrived. The United States begs him to evacuate before the storm arrives. Adamant as he might be, he allows more than a three-hundred thousand residents to stay behind. The massive storm quickly becomes one of the deadliest American catastrophes and kills thousands.

What happens next?

Well, as in most national emergencies, over 10,000 rescue workers are called to leave their pleasant homes, jobs and families, making haste toward New Orleans to assist those in need. What they did not know was what they were walking into. Over 9,000 square miles and 200 miles of coastline over 4 states have become devastated. Communication ceases, all utilities are inoperable, tens of thousands of roadways are labeled impassable.

It was this sort of disaster that would be a true test for the nation and its ability to control a collapse of human individuality. Keeping this in mind, the rescue workers make their way into the city. Flooded streets and uncanny depictions of death wander the roads and rising floodwaters make it seem impossible at first. But, what took place next was unforeseen by anyone. Thousands of well-armed black individuals, who took over much of the city, unreservedly raped, desolated and murdered innocent people. They hijacked rescue convoys, shot at rescuers, levee repairmen, and helicopters performing rescue missions. Quickly and without hesitation, all rescue efforts halted.
