They're gonna blow the levee

You are correct about this. At work the lady I work with and I got in an argument over this and I told her the exact same amount as you did in what I would offer the residents to leave that cess poole.
She told me I was crazy and I asked her how many times have you been their and she told me that she had never been their but told me about a time they were going to Missouri and crossed the Cairo bridge and ended up in a small town and looked abandoned. I told her that was Cairo and she told me that no it wasn't because it looked horrible. I said yep that's Cairo.

sounds very much like they are going to do it and do it very soon.
i knew the court thing was just a dog and pony show.

Krsna's mercy

By blowing a hole in the levee it will allow water to escape from the river into who knows how many square miles of flatland, allowing the level of the river to drop and theoretically save people downriver who might otherwise be flooded.



Silt is a rich, dark in color earth that is rich in nutrients that makes for prime farming land. There can be a lot of mud involved though and it's a stinking mess to have to clean up if it's in your house or place of business.

I live in what's considered a rural area of MO about a mile from the Mississippi, but not in the floodplain.

After they plant the crops?

link?????????????????????

More than likely the town has valuable underground tunnels.

Why would they borrow below a town that's prone to flooding?

blow it or dont
why is this crap pinned

This pretty much looks like triangulation on the global incident map. Yes or No?

Sounds just like Corp bureaucracy.

2 years ago they gave the lowest possible safety rating possible out of the 3 to the levee that just breached this week in Poplar Bluff, MO., but didn't take steps to rectify the situation.

The levees never should have been built in the first place. They are the cause of massive flooding when larger amounts of water are channeled into a single place.

yes they blew holes in two places which floaded New Orleans the day after Hurricane Katrina... one hole near the 9th ward (poor folks) the other near the rich folks (which then gangs of oozie holding men came and stole from the rich)
they even had an article in the paper stating this fact then that article disapeard and they reversed the story... for the first and real story was about some citizens shooting two FEMA dudes responcible for the explosion, then ther reversed it to say two citizens were shot on the levee to cover it up...

I think this blowing up in this situation is nessecary and a well guided thing..... This area is getting plenty of water!!!

These were my first thoughts. Agenda 21.

Sounds logical to me.

Welcome aboard John. I have enjoyed your interviews over the years and your input herein is greatly valued overall, from what I can tell.

if you want the real scoop go here lots more info plus stats on the amount of water coming thru and I mean alot.

^^this^^

Sorry still just a little perterd that this got pinned and hour later than mine. I know boo hoo thanks for nothing mods

I know, Led Zeppelin wrote about this years ago:

My father farms 7500 acres in the midwest, Those farmers are happy as hell...They will be receving money from the gov for this.. They will get the rewards of harvest without all the risk and expense fuel,seed,spray,fertilizer. In some cases they will also get crop insurance as well, double dip

No money to fix shit...Just wait bridges will be falling all over especialy in the north from the salt..I was reading somewhere they have only a few people to inspect these things. If I can remember each inspector would have to do several a day to do them all in a year.

That shameful, i hope they can eat money....
It's definitely part of a purposeful plan to kill us off and desecrate the earth so it's unusable for farming or living......

Cairo is upriver about 30 miles. Their is another levee that was breached just a bit ago just south of New Madrid in Tn. I think it has flooded 20 square miles or something like that.
Also they stopped the flow of the dams at Ky lake which was flowing around 1.2 million gal a sec. It is now backing up and flooding farmland in South central Tn. Ky lake ends up flowing into the Ohio right up from Paducah Ky.

What will solve this problem is to blow the levee at Cairo and have the Gov buy them out and move the town. It will be much cheaper than what they are proposing now. After all 300 white families who will lose their lively hood is worth it compared to around 2000 who sit on the front porch for a living.
If you have 130,000 acres out of production then a lot of people will be out of work besides all the farmers. All those communities rely on that grain to make a living.


If it was a slow flood from Iowa or Illinois then it would have some nice topsoil to be added. Most of the water is coming from the Ohio and it is very sandy. Since the water is going to be rushing out in a massive flood all those trees and sand and rocks are going to be out in everybodies farm or house.
Weather station is calling for another bout of rain this weekend.

Yep sucks when this happens, About 200 times a day on Glp..But its really fucked up how you are crying over it.And it is rude to the OP they prob did not know.
The most important thing is to get the info out, Not who gets pins. Fuck you could contribute here now that this is pined and get info out instead of doing this.
