It's been a week...I still can't fucking believe this shit is happening in America. I gave $250 and a pint of my own blood yesterday and I still feel like I haven't done shit...people are still dying and I'm up here in NJ with my electricity and phone and all...
I'm starting to understand what it is to be not just an American, but a human. We help out those under us because it makes us all stronger in the end. It's so fucking simple.
Why is anyone in NO left with no food and water? For whatever reason, it's unacceptable. We're a better country than that.
That should be our motto, our goal: "We're a better country than that!"
Because we are, and seeing fucking people dying of starvation should not happen in America. Fuck yeah!
I talked to my father, my co-worker, and my landlord - all Vietnam vets - and they all agreed that this is the worst thing America has seen. Worst attack - natural or human - worse than Pearl Harbor or 9/11.
And still people are being rescued. In America. Why?
