Yeah, Chris, I don't know how you were able to take that.
She was a nurse! WTF?

I probably would, too. It cannot be defended even by the most radical of neocons.

They were just talking about this on Countdown. They said they were still in the freezer, plus in other places in the CC.

Plus, they showed video (yes, video) of bodies left in the chapel and rooms of Mercy Hospital. At least 18, before the reporters couldn't take it any more and stopped counting.

Isn't that just NO proper (city limits)? Including all the surrounding parishes, I keep hearing that the total area population is close to 2 million.

They found 8 victims who were left to die in that hospice, I understand how a hospice works (I am married to a nurse) but that was the absolute worse way to die...Alone

that is the actual NOLA population excluding the suburbs...The OKC metro it is also way above the 1 million mark in total population once you add the suburbs (Which includes Norman 20+ miles South of downtown OKC)

So many were left to die that way-and not just in hospices. I hope their souls haunt those responsible for this five lifetimes down the road.
