Yeah such gross negligence is usually reserved to their territories.

And with slightly less "straight ignoring the problem", the liberal cities during natural disasters.

I’m confused as to what you’re attempting to convey.

Our government throws paper towels at territories during natural disasters.

The same government has a similar tendency to ignore natural disasters on liberal cities.

Perhaps this is a state issue where I live, but hurricane Katrina is an easy example.

Oh, I wasn’t aware that New Orleans being a liberal city was an alleged reason of their complete failure at providing relief for them! Was the president at the time Republican then, is that what you’re getting at?

That's part of it, his appointed head of FEMA resigned over it. Cops shot people trying to live. People were herded into areas that were clearly unsafe and bad things happened over federal/state watch.

The city fucked up, the state fucked up, and the federal government fucked up.

But in the end, major disasters of that magnitude travel up, not down.

My point was that the territories, as said, are completely ignored. Liberal cities are similarly, but less, ignored. Another example is covid in NY

"Looting"

I.E., taking water from abandoned stores.

That psychopath Chris Kyle bragged about shooting “looters” after Katrina. Supposedly he drove from Texas to New Orleans and set up a vantage point and killed 30 some people. However it’s been widely discredited.

But still. Making up some random story where you decide to drive to another state to murder civilians is weird as all hell. Especially civilians trying to just get by after Katrina.

Not just cops, wealthy people went hunting for humans there at the time. Look into it.
