i hate to sound like an asshole but if you have a Cat. 5 Hurricane coming towards you, the most reasonable thing to do is get off its path so if you stay for what ever reason you damn well deserve what ever happens to you. If you didn't had a way to leave then make one, the safety of our families have to be the first thing on your mind im sure i would even have left New Orleans on foot if i lived there.
The bad thing is thot people that live in Chalmette know better. They are in the lowest area and this wasnt the first time this has happend. I bet they leave next time.
@islamguidedotcom Thank you for sharing this with the rest of the world. It is hard to understand the true devastation that Katrina caused if one was not a victim of it. This is simply unbelievable. I am glad that you and your wife made it out safely. The USA let the victims of this storm down. We can send billions of dollars of aid to natural disaster victims in Haiti and Thailand, but we can't even help our own people on our own soil. This was a disgrace.
The guy sums the whole thing up when he says, "I've made some mistakes, but this is my worst. By staying here" Hope he survived and has his life back together. But the next time, LEAVE when a Cat. 5 is coming at you.
paddle your way out of there u dumbfucks...these r the types of dumbasses that wouldn't have survived anything worse.....ur not always going to be saved.
I'm British and the last time a hurricane blew in to the south of England was 1982 and there wasn't any water either... I feel so sorry for all the people that lost there homes and lives to a hurricane named after my cousin! The Americans are our cousins! We've got their back and they've got ours! In the war they got involved and helped us and when they got in trouble we helped them! I would like to say thank you America.
If I could have gotten to a boat like he said he did, I would get in the boat, pack what ever supplies remained, and use two wooden planks to row away.
@07068287 I'm from there. The Hurricane was a lifesaver. If you knew - or cared - about what went on in that city before the storm you would understand where I am coming from and commiserate with what I am saying and, no, getting drunk down there as well as watching "Treme" does not count as experience.
There is more to life than just getting drunk at people's expense. There is quality of life.
@07068287 I am from there and that storm was a blessing. If you knew what went on in that city before the storm, if you are from there, then you would understand or at least commiserate. And, no, visiting down there and getting drunk at the expense of our quality of life as well as the show "Treme" does not count as experience.
Getting drunk is not the only thing that matters in life. Quality of life matters too. Think about it.
@HappyHooker83 U think a natural disaster targets a place because of its activities? I am against all immoralities if thats where you are coming from but Hurricanes usually start from Cape Verde goes through the Caribbean and finish in the south of this country. It don't pick a place to punish that 'sreligious bullshit.
If any country on the 'Ring of Fire" is destroyed will you stand by the same philosophy? The poor engineering of the levees would be a more likely reasons for the destruction
@SenoraFlowerLollypop Why do you feel the need to compare dogs to people? Why do weirdos do this?! Obviously everyone cares about the people too, but the dog is helpless, that's why everyone is asking. Geez.
Katrina fue la forma de Dios limpiar un poco de negros el planeta. Esa pestilencia que tenian en la ciudad era insoportable. Ahora estan regados por todas partes. Siguen siendo odiados, pero molestan menos separados que juntos...
@itkapatanka and bush made the hurrican come to shore right? that means obama made the tsunamis the earthquakes and every single soldier die in the war too
Is the dog ok? I really wanted to know and it must've been horrible for you.And again is the dog ok i just want to know because i'm just a animal lover
What happened to this country? So many people who don't give a damn about anybody but themselves with some of these hateful comments. Peace to this family and to New Orleans and all those who perished in something nobody ever could have predicted.
Is the dog ok? Probably not... but still, I'm glad you survived! D: This was a horrible event, and hearing you say the others were howling for help, I felt so terrible. Im so sorry this happened, God bless you and your family and friends!
I was in Kenner when it happened, (Taking care of 60 clients left behind at Veteran's Small Animal) ... we got lucky the water only came up a few feet and the Nat'l guard was all over the place by Sept 6th. I'm so sorry about your dogs I know how they were forcing people to leave them behind!!!!!
did your dog make it through? how long did it take before you guys got rescued? and the people who were screaming,where they trapped or just trying to get help.
@dogguy246 It was on tv last night in UK and it said both dogs survived and they still live there today:) I was worried about the dog too:( I kept imagining if it was my dog and what I would do:P xxx
Had the levees not breached, this would not have happened. So, some people had a reasonable expectation of safety from floodwaters if they were within the levee system. And they stayed. However, the levees BROKE.
this happened a few miles from my home, in st. bernard parish, i first saw this video at a local church. but i am looking at the web address above here (islamguidedotcom) WTF does stupid islam have to do with this video? Fvok islam!
I met a woman in a temp. shelter after Katrina who was just rocking back and forth. She too had lived in Chalmette, LA and the person she was with said the house took on water fast and reached the roof within minutes. She had floated out the window and laid with her face in the water and prayed, just waiting to die. Then someone in a boat plucked her out of the water.
I consider myself lucky although I lost 75% of my assets to Katrina....others lost lives, it is for them I still bleed for.
I worked there after the hurricane and this parish had a handfull of habitable houses I saw 3 all in Ysclowsky those people were prepared their homes were way above what the recommended heigth was they also had their generators ready elevated along with some sort of water supply those people were up and running despite all the water and near cat 5 winds. You have never seen disaster until you personally watched the aftermath of a storm surge.
Gog bless you and your family. I hope you your life is back togather now. i wish i could have gone to help. I tried to go but the police department I work for needed me here.
@keeg021985 Uhm these people didn't do much so why would I have to experience it? Sorry try better next time and try to be more civil I don't want people spilling at me while eating their jelly doughnuts on that fat fucken arses.
@Codis998 Do yourself a favor: refrain from any further comments, because you are solidifying the perception that you are, indeed, a moron. You also can't spell, and you don't know how to punctuate. You're cleary childish, as well as apparently uneducated academically and practically.
@keeg021985 The fact in judging me on my grammer is way off the subject, it is utterly pointless to the fact that your country had failed to respond more and will fail more in through future disasters and economics. Besides I'm only 13 you should feel ashamed for even fighting with a kid that age . All I'm trying to do is put a point out there but the majority like you can only judge by their grammer. Such a shame but typical to you arrogant people. So do yourself a favour and restrain from this
@Codis998 I don't care if you're only 13. I recall when I was that age, and I had the same compassion I do now, and would never had made comments like you have. Since you obviously don't understand how inappropriate your comments are, I surmised that lambasting your poor writing skill might at least get your attention. Obviously, I was correct, since you're more concerned with that than with the unwarranted comments you made about these people. Perhaps you should seek counseling.
@keeg021985 My comments are not inapropriate they are trying to prove a point of truth. And do you know why I didnt comment like you when you were 13? It was because we are all diverse. I am not like you and I will never be like you as more than 6 billion people are too. So your countless attemps of retaliation using big words on a 13 year old making you feel like a tough guy isn't quite a bright idea you ass hole, and I have a right to call you that :) Go on say something pointless, I can'twait
@Codis998 duh! good point. who would be stupid enough to stay during a hurricane? especially if you're in New Orleans. I mean come on! New Orleans is below sea level....pure stupidity to stay when you have a huge hurricane coming your way..
I'm sorry un-faithless and desperate fuck faces like your self can only stay in homes while acknowledging that there is A MIGHTY FUCKING HURRICANE ON IT'S WAY but ignore the warnings and then it comes down on you! You sir is what I call plain stupidity but the typical dumb ass type. Now you prey the same happends to me which isn't going to happend because I know when to GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE! You see, prey all you want but you'll soon find your one hell of a fucken MORON hahaha!
@Codis998 yea well i did stay for katrina but im above sea level. i have evacuated for gustav and i treat every storm as a threat no matter the category. sure i might lose my house and all my possesions but that doesnt run me off from what i call my home. im just gonna rebuild. i can guarentee you would do the same thing.
I drove through New Orleans a few weeks ago. And I still don't think the US government has arrived there yet. Fucking bastards, leaving your own people to die.
@FuckYouLetMeLogIn wow you need help. new orleans is one of the greatest places to live and no matter what happens i aint moving. besides no one expected the levees to break.
I am so sorry for these people they must have been terrified. This man is giving amazing commentary unlike I have ever seen or heard before. A really tragic situation unfolding while I am watching. I hope this family is okay. thank you for your footage.
disaster.. The things I find to be most disturbing? Are all the messages of hate! especially when it is racial or religious! All the suffering that people inflict on people! I dont care what color you are right now, who or what you pray to. You seem to be a good man. you could have been a neighbor? And i want you to live. I wish you peace. tearfully!
You did make a mistake by staying if you had the option to leave but everybody does things in their life that they wish they hadn't done so anybody who criticizes you is a hypocrite.I'm glad that you're alive and respect you for staying so calm when your life was in danger.
my dad stayed bak for this stormto help people sturricane Katrina is a storm i will never ever forgot for the rest of my life i was in biloxi in the 7th grade my homie hardy lost his mom n alotta my friends moved i went to atl n then came bak to baton rouge well after the storm n all i could do is watch the devastation..Bless This Family and many others who made as well as the ones who didnt
the nation didn't know that katrina was going to be a cat 3 until it was too late for most.
they were suggested to evacuate but it wasn't mandatory because it was speculated to be only strong winds and about 3-6 feet of flooding so people who had two story houses thought they were safe.
most people in east biloxi couldnt afford to evacuate.
by the time the storm watchers figured out that it was going to be as bad as it was, it was to late.
Would someone, please, explain to me the thought process which would cause someone to not evacuate when suggested to? I hate to sound callous, but honestly, what even happened to those who stayed invited what happened to them, individually.
God Bless this family, and I hope that the kids posting retarded comments on this video grow up very soon. I had to watch my hometown flood a few years before this and I would never want to see anybody ever go through something like that again
Unbelievable that our country;s leader at the time couldn't dispatch its resources to help many of these people in time. I got to see New Orleans in her glory in '97 and can't imagine what it's like now; although I hear it's getting better. God Bless.
Lots of people tried to evacuate and couldn't. A lot of people didn't have the money or anywhere to go. And there have been a lot of hurricans that almost hit before so a lot of people didn't believe it was going to be as bad as it ended up. These people are strong and thank God they survived.
you arent really safe anywhere. its more like choosing a lesser evil.
the west is forest fires, earthquakes, mud slides and such, the middle is tornados, the south is hurricanes, north is blizzards. east...gets a little of everything i suppose. so yea. choose your evil. >__>
Why would anyone wanna ride out a hurricane, especially knowing you are under sea level and that you are NEXT TO THE SEA !!!!! Come on people! Do you have a death wish ?
Im a very proud canadian right about now i didnt know we made it there before the us military. Thats canada for you always reaching our hands out to help those in need!!1 Rich poor black white doesnt matter who you are everyone has the same color blood!! Most canadians are like that! I am so sorry you had to all go through this!!!
@tee280 I'm Canadian too and I feel the same way as you. people here are selfless and will do anything to help others in need. I did live in East Texas for a few years and I moved back to Calgary, Alberta a few months before this disaster.....my heart goes out to anyone who was affected.
@tee280 See, this is why I want to go an live in Canada as soon as possible! All Canadians I know are proud of their country, therefore, Canada must be a really amazing country!
i was in the lower ninth ward and everything this man is saying i went through, we had to wait for help while watching helicopters fly over us to get people out of St. bernard parish.....for those you live in new orleans can relate. i lived in the dome for five or six days, can't remember, all i know it was too long for anyone to wait.......i couldn't have been far from this. all i heard also was people yelling for help, hit hurts to talk about it....
She said "God please let it stop, then God said "just 20 more feet and I'll be good"

And for idiots like this SAR workers have to put there life on the line.
When officials tell you to evacuate you simply evacuate !!
Don't start asking questions, don't second guess, simply follow the orders/advise and don't make their life difficult.
If the hurricane happens to miss your city, don't start blaming officials, just be happy that your house is still standing.
Never understood why people to ride out a hurricane when they don't have to.

@Codis998 Do yourself a favor: refrain from any further comments, because you are solidifying the perception that you are, indeed, a moron. You also can't spell, and you don't know how to punctuate. You're cleary childish, as well as apparently uneducated academically and practically.
keeg021985 1 year ago
@keeg021985 The fact in judging me on my grammer is way off the subject, it is utterly pointless to the fact that your country had failed to respond more and will fail more in through future disasters and economics. Besides I'm only 13 you should feel ashamed for even fighting with a kid that age . All I'm trying to do is put a point out there but the majority like you can only judge by their grammer. Such a shame but typical to you arrogant people. So do yourself a favour and restrain from this
Codis998 1 year ago
@Codis998 I don't care if you're only 13. I recall when I was that age, and I had the same compassion I do now, and would never had made comments like you have. Since you obviously don't understand how inappropriate your comments are, I surmised that lambasting your poor writing skill might at least get your attention. Obviously, I was correct, since you're more concerned with that than with the unwarranted comments you made about these people. Perhaps you should seek counseling.
keeg021985 1 year ago
@keeg021985 My comments are not inapropriate they are trying to prove a point of truth. And do you know why I didnt comment like you when you were 13? It was because we are all diverse. I am not like you and I will never be like you as more than 6 billion people are too. So your countless attemps of retaliation using big words on a 13 year old making you feel like a tough guy isn't quite a bright idea you ass hole, and I have a right to call you that :) Go on say something pointless, I can'twait

me haunted with memory's of the katrina
disaster.. The things I find to be most disturbing? Are all the messages of hate! especially when it is racial or religious! All the suffering that people inflict on people! I dont care what color you are right now, who or what you pray to. You seem to be a good man. you could have been a neighbor? And i want you to live. I wish you peace. tearfully!

You did make a mistake by staying if you had the option to leave but everybody does things in their life that they wish they hadn't done so anybody who criticizes you is a hypocrite.I'm glad that you're alive and respect you for staying so calm when your life was in danger.

i never had to go through a natural disaster but i did 2 months of katrina relief work rebuilding the gulf coast in biloxi, so i kind of understand.
andibobandi103131 2 years ago
@forloveoffilm,
the nation didn't know that katrina was going to be a cat 3 until it was too late for most.
they were suggested to evacuate but it wasn't mandatory because it was speculated to be only strong winds and about 3-6 feet of flooding so people who had two story houses thought they were safe.
most people in east biloxi couldnt afford to evacuate.
by the time the storm watchers figured out that it was going to be as bad as it was, it was to late.

Would someone, please, explain to me the thought process which would cause someone to not evacuate when suggested to? I hate to sound callous, but honestly, what even happened to those who stayed invited what happened to them, individually.

if you dont have the money you cant leave, i lived through hugo in sc.
there are some jobs that monitor storms hour by hour to even let you know if they will let you off.
could you leave your life at a moments notice. do you have a natural disaster fund. not trying to be smart but you asked

Unbelievable that our country;s leader at the time couldn't dispatch its resources to help many of these people in time. I got to see New Orleans in her glory in '97 and can't imagine what it's like now; although I hear it's getting better. God Bless.

Lots of people tried to evacuate and couldn't. A lot of people didn't have the money or anywhere to go. And there have been a lot of hurricans that almost hit before so a lot of people didn't believe it was going to be as bad as it ended up. These people are strong and thank God they survived.

I'm fairly certain you do not understand the circumstances of each individual who stayed.
Secondly, even if the whole city evacuated, those houses would all still be destroyed
