Someone mentioned Chris Kyle on top of the Superdome sniping people and then the FBI whacked it

I wish I could find Brian Williams’ account of his visit to the Superdome, where he tried to shame everybody into taking those camped in the Dome into their homes.

Williams left the Dome in his helicopter with no additional passengers. His home was too good.

Check out the story of Zach and Addie.

It’s easy to Google. Tons of podcasts out there too.

The Zach and Addie story is too fricked up to be true. However, it is a true story that shows how many people live on the edge of insanity everyday and a natural disaster like Katrina pushed them over the edge. It’s a chilling and fricked up story!

Didn’t those people destroy the superdome?

Also who had the supplies then for extra people?

At the time I thought that was complete crazy talk.. But then today.. Compared to all the shite people believe... That was mild.

I remember a mega thread with lots of pics of the aftermath. One had a couple of huge water snakes resting on the supports of some sort of oil/gas platform. Apparently, they got swept out from the marsh. They were huge and it was disturbing to realize how big those things could get. I’ve tried to find that pic since then without success.

Those weren’t ordinary water snakes bro, they were water moccasins. And there were a bunch of them.

What makes you say that? That's far and away not the most fricked up thing that's happened with an insane couple before.

Murder-suicide is pretty common.

We went volunteer at Lamar Dixon after Katrina. As teens, it was the first time seeing how shitty people could be. I wouldn’t have any of those people in my home and I’m not ashamed to say it. I’m out there handing out plates of food and people are cussing at 15/16 year olds because we didn’t have a better selection of salad dressings.
