Katrina Victims??
It appears to me that the people of Metro Atlanta have become more a victim of Katrina then some of the people who were actually there.Why?Well thanks to unloading victims into Metro Atlanta crime rate seems to be going up.There are reports of 4500 registered sex offenders among the evacuees,who cannot be traced down because they have NOT registered.A teacher,two days away from retirement was stabbed and robbed of all her money...by a Katrina "victim".The carjacking that happened a few days ago in the Atlanta area,where the female driver was killed (leaving two children behind) and the carjacker shot by a bystander,well,the carjacker was a Katrina "victim".According to one of our neighbors sons who is a police officer,many 911 calls lately,involve crimes done by yup...Katrina "victims".
Same story appears to be going on in Baton Rouge.
So who is the actual victim of Katrina here??We are.Because criminals have been unloaded on us.Is it still safe to have the kids play outside??Will it be still safe for me to drive to Atlanta every other Friday,where I have to drive through some not so pleasant areas??What if I get stranded with my kids??Who can I trust??Granted,this has always been an issue to me,yet,now its getting worse.We already had enough crime in the Metro Atlanta,we do not need more!What about those who are victims of Katrina,the ones who have lost it all and are desperate to survive but actual help is being denied to them?I mean,I would freak out,wouldn't you?Who is counseling them to prevent them from turning into criminals?Times of misery create criminals.And the victims in the long run are not the evacuees but the ones who got burdened up with them!WE ARE!Catch my draft....
