"Two yahoos from Lafayette"

[trof]

e-mail I received from a friend this morning:

"Some of you might be interested to know that two of my brothers from Lafayette, LA got fed up with watching those people around the Superdome suffering and dying from lack of food and water so they decided to do something about it. On Saturday they hooked up a trailer to their truck, loaded both truck and trailer with water, ice, food, and various supplies and headed for N.O.

It was an interesting journey which I will tell later, but to make a long story short they drove to the ramp right next to the Superdome where you have been watching all those people siting out in the heat with no food and no water for the last four days and dispersed what they had. They told me the interstate to that spot was wide open and they found out, from talking to the few militia that were there, it has been open this whole time. One brother commented if two yahoos from Lafayette could just drive in, deliver supplies, and drive out how in the hell has what just happened happen."

4. There was a story on Fox

about 3 college kids from NC who went to Baton Rouge, stole a press pass, forged 2 more and got into NO, they went to the convention center delivered water and then picked up 7 folks and took them out. The college student said the same thing just before the fox anchor cut him off, "If 3 college students can get in...."

8. Did they do that to get on the tv?

Or because it was the right thing to do?

I'm proud of them either way!

9. "Two yahoos from Lafayette" .... with more decency in their 'yahoo' hearts

than in the entirety of our nation's 'leadership'.

These two sound like they might be part of the America in which I had always hoped to live.

12. Dem Cajuns are tough old oysters and pros in survival during hurricanes.

and I believe they were also the ones who sent out their small boats around NO to rescue people, but then got turned back by the fuckheads at FEMA.
