WTF: FRISKING PEOPLE BEFORE THEY RESCUE THEM
Our National news programme here in New Zealand, just had a report on the rescues going on in New Orleans, they showed a Helicopter landing on a higeway , but before the Children were allowed on Board, they were Frisked by the Police.

We also had a story of a New Zealand woman stuck in New Orleans, with a group of people who werent being rescued, in the end she found an Australian flim crew, who contacted the Australian embassy and they organised for them to be rescued.

She was very upset, that they were left there and it took a flim crew to recue them, she also said everywhere you look there is armed police, its really not pretty, and pretty are angry.

Apprently the helicopters over head werent dropping food and water, because they didnt want a riot to break out.

1. "Apprently the helicopters over head werent dropping food and water" - yep
exactly

thousands are still with no food or water in NO, not because they can't get it to them, but because they have decided not to give it to them

2. "They're not worthy"
It's like a line from a bad horror film.

The Military Is Frisking Little Children Before Rescuing Them
by Michael in New York - 9/03/2005 08:00:00 PM

I have not seen this, but reader Aaron (who I know and trust) said he just watched ABC World News This Weekend and they showed footage of a black family being rescued from some highway above the waters and put on a military helicopter. But before the family was allowed inside, everyone was frisked -- including a little boy that was maybe ten years old! ABC assured us that military leaders insisted this was necessary. Yes, everyone standing politely by and waiting to be rescued needs to be treated like a criminal and frisked. Is there one example of someone asking to be rescued who then turned on their rescuers? No. Is there anyone who thinks a little 10 year old boy hungry and crying IS A SECURITY RISK? Who lifts the old people out of their wheelchairs so they can be frisked? Who frisks the bodies on the side of the road and floating in the water in case they've been booby-trapped? Who frisks the babies hungry for milk that might be swaddled in explosives? This is the final humilation for these poor, abandoned people.

5. isn't that what they do to all inmates
before they go through processing?

just sayin

I'm sure access and egress will be severely curtailed at these rest and relocation centers....

I heard, no...pets or personal effects ie; family photos were allowed .either.

also ...hypodermic bodily invasion was also a mandatory portion of the rescue and shelter sequence.

I wouldn't be surprised if Biochips are also on the menu in this insanity...

6. Shots were mandatory? . . .
. . . oh shit. Not that some tetanus shots might not have been in order, but mandatory injections? That's just not right. I wonder what kind of shots they were given?

7. It looked like tetanus
on the report I saw...but they were ALL being screened and classified as if they were entering prison or a hospital...there were clearly other injections , and the inmates, I mean survivors, clearly had little choice about it...

8. Aw c'mon. I'm sure they did the same thing during 9/11.
Everyone running out of the buildings was stopped and frisked. I'm sure of it. :sarcasm:
