Hurricane Katrina: Open Thread 2

• Views: 5,274

The pictures coming out of Biloxi, Mississippi are just horrific. The devastation is beyond belief.

Here’s another open thread for links to aid and relief efforts, and communications between LGF readers with friends and family in the area. I’ve been told that we should not attempt to contribute physical goods, like blankets, food, etc. It’s much better to donate cash, and let aid agencies spend it on the supplies that people need most.

And another note: some readers have expressed anger with the Red Cross. But please remember—there is no connection between the International Committee of the Red Cross (a Europe-based organization with an anti-American, anti-Israel agenda) and the American Red Cross, who support the United States whole-heartedly, and have even withheld dues from the ICRC, out of disgust at their agenda. Don’t target the wrong group, just because they have a similar name.
