(16:11:34) Josh: im at a comcenter for this local relief organization
(16:11:56) Josh: its crazy, you been keeping up at all with the news about the shit going on around here?
(16:12:12) Marginal Warfare: not really, why, what's going on?
(16:12:55) Josh: Well the government is trying to keep the poor black population out of the city so they can "revitalize" new orleans
(16:13:00) Marginal Warfare: wtf
(16:13:38) Josh: they are actually going so far to weld window and doors shut with pieces of sheet metal
(16:13:53) Josh: to keep people out of the houses that are at least still standing

What the fuck?!!

I hadn't heard about any of this, either. I guess now that "the hurricane" is over, the media doesn't give a shit.
