FUCKING FREELOADERS.. I HATE THEM!! rant.

[A.P. Photography]

True. True.
But I dont think anybody is in this thread is in a position of determining who deserves the money vs. who doesnt... It all depends on the individual and its really nobodys buisness but their own... Its simple, if they havent been looking for a job by now then their days are limited... Fema is obviously coughing up the money so I dont see why others have a problem with this..

Shit I know if Atlanta was wiped out today many of us wouldnt have a problem collecting a check or debit cards from Fema regardless of how financially stable we were when the disaster occured... It seems like alot of people are just bitter because they arent receiving any of the money...

As far as saying that people from New Orleans think they are the shit and want others to show pity or that they ask for a discount... Now that is straight up categorizing...

And it is great that you are so caring. YOU are paying for them to stay at your hotel while they do nothing. SO everytime you see that money taken out of your check, you know where it is going. I have no problem with FEMA helping out NO residents but after two months and the water has receeded, it is time to head back and rebuild not stay in a nice hotel in another city while the gv'mt pays for it. Move on with your life. I know if Atlanta was wiped out, yeah we would accept the money but I am pretty sure that most of us would pick up the pieces and move on. Not lay up in a hotel doing nothing for more than three months.

Taxes are coming out of my check regardless if they stay there or not... Im not saying its right for someone to lay up in a hotel for 3 months and do nothing for themselves.. But those including you who are ranting DO NOT know for a fact what preparations they are taking... Or do you follow New Orleans victims back to their hotel rooms???

Being a front desk clerk, I am speaking from what I witness first hand.. We have had ALOT of guest check in through FEMA and I have spoken one on one with just about all of them... Most of them found jobs within weeks and were just waiting on an apartment or so... There was even a man who lost an arm due to the situation over there.. Now can you put a pricetag on that ??

I am not from New Orleans nor do I have family... Its just not accurate to say that they all are "looters" & "freeloaders".. Thats like me saying most white people I have met are addicted to meth.. That statement holds no weight..

Blah.... So you going to sit here and tell me they dont have family somewhere else that can more then likely help them ?

Im sure some family were all out of NO.. but not all.

I still think they are taking advantage of the system, period. 98 % of them are.

Even if they are raping the system I dont think it really matters.... If you think about it the people deserve it in one way or another....

Anyways, I was just voicing my opinion... NO BEEF INTENDED.. lol

How do they deserve it still after 2 month?

No beef, Just debating.

3 million bucks a day can go somewhere else.

98%? man youve got other issues..with them or something like some NO ppl killed your puppy or seomthing. You get that FEma check, and than right behind that you get bills in the mail from your flooded out house in NO, and other expenses still lef tover. AMn you dont jsut move away and start over. you got to catch up there and than come start over. Your talkin out of your ass....i know about 95% of ppl on IA would be devastated and stuck in a hard place for waaay longer than 2 months, if they lost everything they owned.

i dont know how u can say that 98% of evacuees are taking advantage of the system is one of the dumbest tihgns ive ever heard...fuckin ridiculious. Im not just sayint hat b/c ive got alot of family that have left NO its just in general. how can u assume that everyoen has family to runt oo when times get hard, and that everyone has someone to go to when they are left with nothing..

How many ppl within 1 weeks notice could just get up and move away, and find another job to support a family form scratch with nothing, u do waht you got to do...an get it done but it takes time..

I dont see why it bothers anyone that much, its not like u got people on the news begging for shit, they arent even letting people go home, and help clean up there own areas. Theyahd thousands of residents wanting to go back and help cleanup and get paid for it anda hourly rate. That would have been a great help

you are crazy....of course people are taking advantage of the system! it's like someone already said though....it's our fault....we've been giving them food stamps low income housing and all these other handouts that they only expect more now that they are put out.

My family, that is 7 different familes and homes in Louisiana, all put out by the storm.....two of them got calls from their jobs and basically said that they wont have jobs because the company folded....others got calls saying they will not be back to work for months! I was fucking there 3 days after the hurricane hit to go back with my family to survey the damage and see what we could salvage and whatnot....if it were me, I'd take the insurance check and not even look back, knock down whatever's left and just sell the land off....but all my cousins and aunt/uncle wanted to rebuild and get back on their feet as soon as possible....they drove to Texas, Al, and GA to buy supplies (sheetrock, wood, doors, windows) and that's what they did, ALL OF THEM. With no power and running water, they worked to keep themselves busy and cleaned up. Yeah, they couldve stayed with us and just sat here and sulked waiting for the govt to do something, but they didnt........they lost everything just as everyone else, but I do feel that alot are just milking it and waiting for the govt to give them more and more....I dont feel as if it's high as 98%, but I seriously think about 75% is a more realistic number of people trying to milk the system.

there are some that are trying to rebuild and get shit back together, but if you go back to NO now, it's still pretty deserted, compared to this time last year...why? because once they head home, they dont get to live in that nice hotel and have all the amentities at their beck and call....people are treating as a long ass vacation, and I cant wait till they finally get kicked out and head home with no FEMA or Red Cross money left because they spent it all, and you are gonna hear them on the news bitching and whining about how nobody did anything for them...

SOoo just assume that 75% are just doing nothing, and sitting on their ass... Noone knows waht they are doing.. SOo who are anyone to say what they are doing and what they are not. Its retarded.


ANd aloso assume that everyoen wants to go back and rebuild, not everyone wants too. And also assume that people dont want to go back because they are living the good life... LOL the good life? living in a hotel the good life? Fuck that people want to go home. If any of them could go back to how it was the would..i gurantee that.

My family did the same, Some went to Texas, and my cousin and her family came up here to find a house. But for everyone its not as easy as set a stake on the ground and proclaim new land and start over. There are two different sides to everything, and too just look at it and say

"wow those lazy low income idiots woh didnt leave should be kicked on the streets for not being able to get back on there feet in 2 months" is abou as ignoratn as anything.

How you could wish and wait for people to be kicked out on the streets is some dumb shit.

I dont hink i have seen anyone complaining about the help that theya re getting on tv? SOo i dont even know why the uproar, all they asked for was more time. All that money donated has to go soemwhere why not use it.

People take advantage of everything...whats new. If u want to be mad, be mad at the non - NO residents that are taking money.

I can wish for them to be kicked out on the streets, because if they are still in hotels, then it's quite OBVIOUS that they havent done anything to go back and try to fix their homes....because it doesnt take anything but a little elbow grease to get things fixed and cleaned. And these people "lining" up to get home? yeah, that was the case at first....but right now, it's free and clear....everyone is allowed to go home now to start with the rebuilding process with the exception of ONE parish, simply because it's 99% destroyed and it's been deemed too far below sea level than the rest of the parishes, this particular parish is also pretty much all low income housing, and it probably houses maybe 10-20,000 at most, you have thousands if not more staying at hotels on the govt's dollar and they have the okay to head home to start with the rebuild....what's stopping them? Money? doubtful, because FEMA issued out those $2000 debit cards, Red Cross handed out those debit cards ranging from $500-$1500. Plus, insurance companies have already swept thru the area issuing checks as well. There is no fucking reason to be in those hotels....I saw families setting up tents outside their homes to sleep...they didnt go to any hotels......why? because they wanted to get shit cleaned up and rebuilt.

You are a moron if you seriously think people who are staying at these hotels are begging to go home and some almighty hand is holding them back....yeah, the hand that is holding them back is the hand that feeds them....

You get that FEma check, and than right behind that you get bills in the mail from your flooded out house in NO, and other expenses still lef tover. AMn you dont jsut move away and start over. you got to catch up there and than come start over.

All the more reason to get up, get out and find a job.

How many ppl within 1 weeks notice could just get up and move away, and find another job to support a family form scratch with nothing, u do waht you got to do...an get it done but it takes time..

Not this much time to get started.

. Noone knows waht they are doing..

Well, with as much money as FEMA is still spending, they can't be doing much.

ANd aloso assume that everyoen wants to go back and rebuild, not everyone wants too. And also assume that people dont want to go back because they are living the good life... LOL the good life? living in a hotel the good life?

Even if nobody wanted to go home and rebuild, they still need to get a job and start their lives over wherever they do want to live. To some, this hotel life probably is the good life.

I don't think they can get back to the rythmn in 3 months, but I think they could get out there and get started in doing so. With the amount of money that is still being spent on supporting these people, it's obvious that well over the majority is just taken it easy. I'm not really trying to come off as hating. Just as I don't see what is going on here as being right. Later, QD.

Dont know why you are so uptight about it. I was raised to be smart and move on and not depend on anyone else... I have 2 legs and 2 arms and aslong as I have those.. I will work my ass off no matter where or what I have 2 do.

And yeah 2 g's is not alot.. But when you dont do shit to earn and just handed off to you is alot.. actually is as good as a tressure.

N.O. was one of the lowest income city anyways of the U.S now tell me thats all BS also.. shit 2k was more then what some have....

Theres motel on the sides of the Hwys for about 140 a week... Even working @ mcdonalds can cover that.
I work for Racetrac, The company lost a few stores. Guess what They moved most of the employees over here and of course they are working here in ATL for the meantime.
I think They had like 4 store that hit about 50 employees.. Not sure How many all together.. But all I know is only 2 employees decided not to come to the ATL to work. Who knows where they went.

Some lost everything they had.. But oyu know what They have kept there head up.....

BTW pictures and Videos of looters dont lie... theres more of that then actual good stories.
