FEMA BLOCKED ALL RESCUE EFFORTS!

I was born in bay st. Louis miss. My family came to biloxi in 1699 with ibreville. My family cemetery was the center of hurricane katrina on mon. It contains the graves of my ancestors back to 1759. I grew up in a suburb of New orleans.  I was in the eyes of both hurricanes BETSY and CAMILLE. I left the area after camille to live completely out of hurricane country. My wifes family is from the north shore of lake pontchatrain. They all sustained damage to thier homes except for the one they weathered the storm in. My family bugged out to houston. But they all lost thier homes. My only child lost her home which was six blocks fromthe 17th st. Levee break. It is under 8ft of water as I write this. I preface this with these facts so the reader knows where my heart is. Since I am out of the affected areas I have been able to monitor the situation constantly since it developed, not only on WWL radio and CNN but the internet as well. I have startling facts to relate as a result. I actually saw the following LIVE on CNN in separate interviews.
FEMA blocked the large volunteer flotilla called for by the mayor of new orleans.
FEMA blocked the evacuation bus convoys called for by the mayor of new orleans. not only the citizen volunteers but at least one convoy of 200 buses from a neighboring school district alone.
FEMA blocked all corporation relief efforts including large truck convoys from WAL-MART with food and water/ice.
FEMA blocked all medical assistance, as called for by the hospitals. including a multi-million dollar mobile hospital as well as individual medical professionals.
FEMA blocked ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT relief efforts. including one contingent of 23 deputies w/trailerload of supplies from neighboring parish as well as 150 SHERIFFS led by the PRESIDENT of the national sheriffs association.
FEMA blocked any escape from the SUPERDOME.
FEMA blocked admittance to the ASTRODOME by 3-4000 evacuees, who made it there under there own power, after the mayor told them to save themselves if they could. FEMA left them to fend for themselves.
FEMA blocked people from taking thier pets. Even the very small ones.
FEMA blocked supplies called for by other local officials. Such as in jefferson parish new orleans and hattiesburg miss.
FEMA blocked foreign aid. The first planeload of aid from germany scheduled to land FRI. Was not allowed to land until MON.

FACT: FEMA BLOCKED ALL AID that wasn't part of thier plan. Until the military took control. This has NEVER BEEN ABOUT SAVING LIVES. It has ALL been about FEMA's CONTROL.
The people who died in the hurricane did so because of a natural disaster. All who died since then did so because they were NOT PART OF FEMA's PLAN!
