I would not be surprised to find out that people have been far less horrible than everyone feared and expected them to be.

Well, there were rapes and murders. I consider myself lucky to have been able to escape when I did, thanks to the kindness of two lovely young women, one from England and one from Quebec – but let’s clarify. Most of the people in the Superdome (was not in the Convention Center, nor did I know that things were as bad as they are), were simply honest, hardworking people, and the sensationalism of the news should not dismiss this fact. Again – there were crimes, including the looting of a Coke machine, but NOT EVERYONE TRAPPED IN THE DOME WAS A LOOTER, RAPIST, DRUG ADDICT!! In fact, I met some really nice, kind, simple people who were simply afraid, like the rest of us.
