The American Red Cross and the Salvation Army were kept out by the troops surrounding New Orleans. I don't know why but George Bush is an idiot.

Go in -- you lose. Don't go in -- you lose.
Police lost control. Their was shooting from the "stranded" residents. If he goes in and they takes fire, they have to shoot back -- so he's guilty of killing blacks. He doesn't go in until backups arrive -- he's guilty of neglecting blacks. You saw the footage of the grocery stores being emptied -- it didn't llok like anybody was going to starve. What would you do? Walk into a gun fight?

But the International Red Cross operates in several areas with similar danger levels, so if they are willing to take that risk, shouldn't they be allowed? (not meant as a rhetorical question)
