Should New Orleans Reconsider Themselves?


Recently Hurricane Gustav hit New Orleans and the coasts of Mississippi and Alabama. It didn't cause as much damage as Hurricane Katrina but the people of New Orleans had evacuated more early on than they did Hurricane Katrina. I understand that the mayor does not want to make the same mistake as Katrina, but now you may as well tell the people to live somewhere else, permanently. I don't think it's fair that they have to leave once again because these are natural disasters they can't control, and the problem should've been controlled when Hurricane Katrina happened. The levees should've been repaired after that happened and now another hurricane happened. What next? Then Hurrican Ike just passed, and now Hurricane Hannah is about to approach. It's sad to see one of America's beloved cities be destroyed little by little because there is no control over how these natural disasters keep happening. I know nobody can't control hurricanes, but at least try to make an effort on preserving the city, because it's been there for years and no one, especially the residents of New Orleans, wants to see it go away.

Yes i think they should reconsider becuz it happened once and then they claimed they rebuild the dam better and stronger and all i'm saying is that never be to sure and never say never it can happen again!

N"Leans! Wow you know what the goverment, is responsible for NOT atleast preventing the issue levees from being something that a natural catastrophe could possibly withstand.But N"leans is home for most people! Most people do not want this hiatus that is almost issued upn them by demand. Which is understanble bc think if you had to leave home bc of a natural catastrophe. People in the keys and carribean and gulf reconstrute all the time!Hell can the people of N"leans have the same option of staying on there homeland!
