@jbenny1277748 FUCK YOU......

@jbenny1277748 hmm.. I don't know about that. I live in the states and pray to God everyday and he has given me a wonderful life. I enjoy a great education, a nice home, and a wonderful family. So Im not sure what you are talking about. Most Americans are thriving and have a very high standard of living. So as far as "hell raining down." Not seeing it.

Gulfport was a beautiful coastal city before Katrina ripped through.

I live in Saucier, MS right outside of Gulfport. When Hurricane Katrina ripped through it was no walk through the park!! All my relatives came to my house because they all live in trailers!! I walked outside during Katrina and the strong winds knocked me on the ground. A tornado ripped through our local drug store We were without water and electricity for a couple weeks!!

I saw that everyday for a year of my life. Gulfport was beautiful before and now almost 4 years later have buildings no one has ever touched. You think seeing this is bad. Try sitting on your couch looking through a lil whole watching a tornado come at ur house and ur roof desicate. and all u have left is the people in your life. Grateful for my family and friends. I don't think i will ever stay for a hurricane again after this one. i have nightmares of this and i was only 12

My sister worked in Gulfport last here with Presbyterian Disaster Assistance. I went to visit her and was crushed by what i saw. This year we are headed to Pearlington to work.

Hey! we have like the SAME stuff on our video! it took us like 2 weeks to get power back, and we went to mobile for food. it was a long trip to the grocery store. and a tree went through my window in my room. that sucked. and my grandmother and my aunt lost their houses. and her cat died. and like 6 of my friends had to swim out. and my dad and all the men in the neighborhood, brighten place, got guns out of my dads gun closet (hes a big hunter) and had to fight of looters. it was crazy.

Yea, I was here too. Walked around Hwy 90 near Jeff Davis' home in Biloxi.  People were walking around like Twilight Zone zombies. Very eerie. Wouldn't wish this experience on any one. I pray for continued strength for all on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and Louisiana.
