"When Are We Going to Get Some Fucking Food, Fuck You"--Bloomberg Visits Rockaway

You forgot to add this..

The natives are growing restless....

Your town must be small..mine is too..but these folks are in NEW York..no excuse to not be prepared for at least three days.. Most folks have 3 days food without even prepping, its not hard..unless of course u use all ur money for drugs or something else ..

I thought Bloomberg is Republican, but it applies. Democrats are bad, Republicans are bad, but some of them I dunno. His first news conference he said it wasn't going to be a big deal. That got Jim Cantore from the Weather Channel really upset.

These types of photo-ops are typical for politicians..."I was there in the thick of it, vote for me." bullshit...

Time to wake up people and make our own government!!!

(all TM's, Copyright's, and endorsements presented to the owners of said "revolution" are hereby liable to government regulations and taxes...any uprising's or coo's will be under strict federal regulation.)

All to be said is, you ppl voted this piece of work in .... Dont blame me I live in Ohio. When are people going to wake up and realize, you vote these MORONS in office.

This mayor is a complete piece of shit ! Smirks at the woman asking for help. Remember this Democrates ! This is what your precious leaders do.

Yeah, well shooting their stupid mouths off and trying to intimidate the little guy sure got a lot done, didn't it?

Nobody gives a shit about their personal problems or complaints. He was there to assess the situation so that the city could try to remedy the situation, not listen to a bunch of crazy, ignorant trash bitch and moan.

He was technically a Republican (RINO) for a short time to run for election. But the fact that he is pro raising taxes, pro abortion, pro gay marriage, pro big government, pro unions, and anti guns should have told you who he was without the R or D next to his name.

Interesting link on how the Pine Barrens is a natural aquifier for some of the most pure water. If this is true why can't they get this water up to the devastated area.

I once read how Carter made it a reserve so if there was a huge disaster in NY the water could come to the public.

Will try to find that article

George Carlin said it best:

"They don't give a fuck about you.
They don't give a fuck about you.
They don't give a FUCK about YOU!"

don't have a link or anything but,
what is going on with all the donations
people and celebs are sending in?

there's gotta be millions of dollars in that account.

should be alot of food, water and gas for all the families
with that amount.

What account?

These are not the droids you are looking for...

Many people are just freaking broke these days and it is enough they are able to put food on the table each day let alone have two weeks stored up.

People need 3 hots and a cot.

Think about it these are the same people that wait in line at walmart at 11:59pm at the end of the month, literally broke until that EBT magically, gets credited with taxpayer funded "assistance."

Then they spend it on baby formula, twinkies, doritos, and spam for their 8 kids.

$

I don't know what you mean by droids'

I was watching one of those news channels and
they were saying how much money $25 million so far
was donated from walt disney, time warner, etc.
are they going to give some to the people or just
keep it for who knows what

Eireann, you make an excellent point.

There were CONTINUOUS warnings about the severity of Sandy for DAYS before the storm struck. How can so many people be so oblivious to what's going on in their community?

Some people lost their homes and need a lot more help than others. But a lot others are complaining to "the government" about not having food, water, flashlights, batteries, portable stoves and radios, etc. It's simply a matter of COMMON SENSE to PREPARE for a disaster that YOU'RE BEING WARNED ABOUT.

Hopefully, these people will learn and be ready NEXT time.

True story...friends of my friend left their large but power-less home in NJ to come to my friend's house in PA on Saturday to do their laundry and catch a hot meal. They've been told the juice won't be back on till next weekend. While at his house, my friend told them to make the best of their visit, load up their car with non-perishable foodstuffs, buy a cheap cooler and some ice and take some other stuff back. I even called while I was in a store that had more than a couple of generators of various sizes available to see if they wanted me to get one for them.

These dopes left this afternoon with nothing more than clean clothes. Go figure.

You make too much sense. People complain of Bloomberg being out if touch,, I would say that many here are out of touch to not realize what you say is absolutely true.

Why no air drops? Why are they not dropping food and water in the neighborhoods and on the beaches? Where is the US Army? All hands on deck!

ROFL "He was there to assess the situation"?

Idiots like this do not assess anything. At best, they push paper & pick through their hair like mindless apes.

Exactly what would there be to 'assess' on a post-apocalyptic hurricane, mud-filled street in BFE?

In a perfect world, this would be a task left to local authorities & responders, who can then pass the information UP the chain.

I can see that in this case, we have bypassed the middle-man and sent the mayor out in a wonderful leather ensemble (also available in Baby Seal blue), to quell people's fears about the event cancellation and pass out marathon rain-checks.

Am I the only one feeling extremely old and nerdy...and unable to give this question a straight answer ?

It's really amazing and sad to see.
I saw a video where some poor sap looked like a deer caught in the headlights. He was in one of those huge lineups for gas only to find out is was cash only. He had no cash!
Well then he must have realized he wasn't going to be getting food or water either!

Hey! Give poor Bloomberg an F-in' break... If he could have had the Marathon there would have been F-in' water stations set up all over the F-in' damn city. What the F!! He tried his dam-nest but got shot down at every turn. He knows what the hell he is do'in... leave him the F alone!

Mel Brooks twin?

I Would say Bloomer has Balls going out there, but New Yorkers are Gutless and wouldn't pose any danger anyway, they would hand over their children if Bloomer told them too.

NY = Gutless

Fricking New Yorkers have a huge ENTITLEMENT MINDSET!!

Sheesh ... hate to say it but they all have this "YOU OWE ME", "YOU OWE ME", "YOU OWE ME" mindset when they don't get their way or something very FORESEEABLE happens that THEY did not WANT to happen.

I agree with some of the posts above... not even a week and people have NO food?

Sheesh. They certainly couldn't live in my area since winter storms can cause week long problems EASILY. They also did NOT pay any attention to the news either (or felt they "KNEW" better than the weather forecasters)

Sorry, but except for those who houses were actually destroyed or got water into them MORE than a couple of feet higher than the floorboards of the first floor, I just can NOT sympathize with their "YOU OWE ME" attitude.

THEY CHOSE to live in a hurricane potential area ... and now they are pissed at the government because, OMG, a hurricane actually hit? (and caused the damage that would be expected).

Cry me a river ... NOT
