I just heard on the news that 2,000 of the New Orleans refugees are coming to Ft.Lewis. I'm trying to figure how those of us that served can't get back on base, but those that looted can...
I honestly hope they took 2,000 decent ones, or Lakewood and Tacoma PD are going to have their hands full (more full). |

By the way... they do not want to be called "refugees"...
Go figure... It also drives me nuts when folks try to make ordinary criminal acts as racist statements...

You'd think semantics wouldn't be a concern right now.
As long as my Wife and kids had food and shelter, I could give a sh*t what you call it. |

Ok Mr Jackasson, show me one, JUST ONE, of the |

Yup, that refugee term isn't PC. However, it seems to be quite fitting being as they have been forced out of their city and state.
refugee n : an exile who flees for safety Who needs eminent domain...............? |

The funny, or weird, thing is that not only black folks were "exiled". There were many from other races, religions, etc. But the m..f... only complains about the blacks...
Using his own premiss I'd say he has quite a discriminatory speech and also lacks any sense of accountability by trying to ignite a "race war" over an already unstable situation. |

Funny, they have two feet don't they? If I knew several hours beforehand that a hurricane was coming for the city, and I had no car... I GAURENTEE you my ass would be running to safety, that's right, with my own two feet. In fact, with all the fleeing traffic on the roads, I bet it would be quicker to just as soon walk/run to safety... You can EASILY make it out of a city in several hours, even by walking, or at least to a safer location. |

HottNikkels069,
They were running buses for days before it hit, so the no car excuse really doesn't add up anyway. Is it me, or does anyone else think that these people might not be lining the overpass waving the US Flag to support the troops that had to come down and save their lawless butts? Color me cynical..... |

Looks like Hilltop will have some competition now. Oh boy! 2,000 looters, roaming the streets of Lakewood (as seen on COPS) and Spanaway (as seen on COPS)! I know I"LL be sleeping better.

Color you righteous |

I heard this morning they're being shacked up in the brand new barracks on North Fort. While those of us serving, stay in the pre-Vietnam era barracks by the airfield.
|
|
The Lakewood Looters demand nothing but the best. |
|
|
I remmember when those were the good barracks, I used to have to live in the old WWII barracks on North Fort Concentration Camp. |
|
|
That is wrong! |

When I did summer camp at Lewis with my JROTC class we stayed in those barracks too.
They were old 5 years ago |

Shit. We stayed in the WWII barracks in Nov-Jan 03' while getting ready to deploy. The O grades and Senior NCO's were put up in the brick bldgs. Come to think of it, we stayed ther during de-mobilization, Mar '05. Guess since they're NOT up to Federal housing codes, it wouldn't be fair to treat a citizen like a GI. What else is new. I wonder what would happen if they didn't have electricity 24/7? If 2 out of 3 meals for one week a month was MRE's? If the chow was kept in a plastic insulated box for 2-4 hours before serving? If the heaters all broke, and no one had any money to fix them. But we found rakes, brooms, paint and paint brushes for them to "Tidy up" "their" area? We decided to make them wear excessive clothing, contrary to personal comfort levels. We restriced the intake of alcoholic beverages, to nil. We monitored all internet communications. Delivered mail, when we felt like it. Screwed up, beyond any comprehension, any paperwork they may have. Invent other paperwork they don't have, especially if it's redundant. Ect, ect, ect, ad nasuem. |

A few things to keep in mind...
1. After they move 2K up here how many of them can you really expect to move back to NO ? considering that WA has some of the best welfare bennifits in the union. If some do decide to move back who will foot the bill to get them there, since they didn't have the $$$ to get the hell out of the danger zone in the first place??? The Fed's?, I'm sure that WA will have a bit of the burden too. 2. Since most of them were on public "assistance" before the storm, and various criminal records, I wonder how the overall crime rate for WA will reflect the "relocation of those poor refugees"??? 3. Who will be paying for all the "assistance" that they recieve? Federal $$ as we all know, but how much will WA be responsible for after we welcome them with open arms??? Then consider the long term cost of the increased burden on the law enforcement community, ie court costs, increased arrests rates, over the long term it is going to cost the state of WA millions in just law enforcement alone. Not even counting unemployment, and state assistance bennifits.. SH%$Y deal for all of us. |

Haha they have the same fucking WWII barracks down here at Bragg. All the NG guard guys stay there before deployements. I lived in them for a few months. Now my newest barracks room is a bloody hotel room... Good thing they aren't coming here. There would be no one to take care of them. Post is empty with the 325 gone, 504 getting ready to leave and the 505 down in NO. |

That's what you get when you read the "french" press. (Where's the garlic?)
They're always out to make us look like retards. IMO: If you don't want footage of african-americans looting Nike-Town, then don't be looting Nike-Town.

My question is why aren't they being housed over at the old Sand Point Naval Base in Seattle? Plenty of room there and no security concerns. Oh wait, that's right next to that upscale Windermere neighborhood. |
|
|
Also no access to Muslum, or Voo-Doo house's of relegion. |
|
|
Heard rumor that they are going to put some up in the old Geiger Base Housing area, The AF cleared everyone out last year and were going to sell it now they will let refugees trash it and sell it for 1/2 price .

Anyone got a big pump???
I would like to flood my neighorhood and get rid of the refugees.... |
|
We got a lawful order this morning that we are to have no contact with the refugees. They are supposed to be identical to Iraqi or Afghani refugees, and completely avoided by soldiers on Ft. Lewis.

Who the hell are YOU trying to kid??!?!?! They'll make room for those on the Chapel schedule, just like they did Wiccan services. |

The so called "black leaders" are racist, hate mongers, bent on deception to ignite civil unrest for their own political gain, at the expense of those they claim to represent. but that's just my opinion.
