Redruth Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Haitian Earthquake disaster has left an already struggling country in complete and utter devastation! BBC BBC #2 reports: Haiti's Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive says he believes more than 100,000 people may have been killed by Tuesday's 7.0-magnitude earthquake. Bodies have been piled up along the rubble-strewn streets of the capital, Port-au-Prince. Among the buildings destroyed was the headquarters of the UN mission in the city. The Red Cross estimates that tens of thousands are in need of urgent assistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubbhasdance Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 this is horrible. the human mind (mine, anyway) can't even comprehend seeing 100,000 people dead. we need to help as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redruth Posted January 13, 2010 Author Share Posted January 13, 2010 sometimes i think about the structures we live in and it seems as though we are not preparing ourselves very well for large earthquakes. it used to be when we lived in tipi's and yurts that we did not have to worry about earthquakes very much. now that we live in bricks, concrete metal, glass and stone, we die horrible deaths inside these traps. we must change this. my heart goes out to the haitian people who are suffering and in pain. i hope that all who have the means will rise up and help to build a new haiti from the rubble of what has not worked in the past. hopefully haiti will rebuilt on organic agriculture, true freedom and love for all living things, nurturing and expanding of ecosystems and will build simple structures for housing. a new beginning is a chance to learn from the past. it's a shame that there needed to be so much blood though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benc812 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 what a terrible disaster. would pray for those involved if i believed in that sort of thing. but anyways, yet another horribly insensitive and ludicrous comment by america's favorite televangelist, pat robertson: Robertson: Haiti 'Cursed' by 'Pact to the Devil' what an evil piece of trash. somebody needs to get this guy totally out of the media for good. don't need ignorance like this spreading to others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. So you can't blame them for what happened - blame their government, corrupt politicians, etc. Can't run before you learn to walk. yeah. but going a step further, their government and politicans are not entirely to blame either. foreign countries like the united states that still practice a form of colonialism by refusing to pay higher prices for things grown in haiti (i think the big one is sugarcane, might be wrong) cripple their already weak economy even further. it's a vicious cycle that leaves haiti fucked in any case. it's sad.
