[QUOTE="Annie, post: 3027969, member: 42224"] After Katrina they bused a bunch of people up here to the empty Lucent plant down the street. It was SO BAD that the Subway across the street closed for a while to keep from having to deal with the "entitled masses" throwing temper tantrums when they couldn't get free food -- because the MREs that our military eat wasn't good enough for them. Shoplifting in that area skyrocketed. It was a mess ... I've never been so glad to see a bunch of people finally get dispersed to wherever they went in my entire life. Driving down to that corner at Council and Reno after dark was an adventure no one I know took if they had to at that time -- and those unfortunate few who had to go down there for some reason never went unarmed. That was my first experience with just how a good deed can go horribly wrong and cause collateral damage (for one instance, the people who worked at that Subway lost the wages they would have otherwise earned). I became a whole lot more close-minded about doing good deeds after witnessing the trouble those "people" caused. [/QUOTE]
