Sodom and Gomorrah:

Just days before “Southern Decadence”, an annual homosexual celebration attracting tens of thousands of people to the French Quarters section of New Orleans, Hurricane Katrina destroys the city.

“Southern Decadence” has a history of filling the French Quarters section of the city with drunken homosexuals engaging in sex acts in the public streets and bars. Last year, a local pastor sent video footage of sex acts being performed in front of police to the mayor, city council, and the media. City officials simply ignored the footage and continued to welcome and praise the weeklong celebration as being an “exciting event”. However, Hurricane Katrina has put an end to the annual celebration of sin.

(…) “Although the loss of lives is deeply saddening, this act of God destroyed a wicked city,” stated Repent America director Michael Marcavage. “From ‘Girls Gone Wild’ to ‘Southern Decadence,’ New Orleans was a city that had its doors wide open to the public celebration of sin. From the devastation may a city full of righteousness emerge,” he continued.

New Orleans is also known for its Mardi Gras parties where thousands of drunken men revel in the streets to exchange plastic jewelry for drunken women to expose their breasts. This annual event sparked the creation of the “Girls Gone Wild” video series. In addition, Louisiana had a total of ten abortion clinics with half of them making their home in New Orleans. At these five abortion clinics in the city, countless numbers of children were murdered at the hands of abortionists.

“We must help and pray for those ravaged by this disaster, but let us not forget that the citizens of New Orleans tolerated and welcomed the wickedness in their city for so long,” Marcavage said. “May this act of God cause us all to think about what we tolerate in our city limits, and bring us trembling before the throne of Almighty God,” Marcavage concluded.

Le récit n’est pas ennuyeux pour autant, et la fin est même plutôt réussie (sauf que ********** meurt à la fin ;-), ce qui est déjà beaucoup mieux que celle de 99F, de Beigbeder. Contrairement à Houellebecq et Beigbeder, pas une once de cul. Rien. Limite décevant ;-). C’est presque un acte de bravoure pour ce genre de littérature ! [Tristan Nitot : “Le blog de Max”.]

Il n’y a pas d’autre terme. La Louisiane, c’est le tiers-monde.

Chaque bulletin de nouvelles est plus accablant que le précédent.

While our attention must now be on the Gulf Coast’s most immediate needs, the nation will soon ask why New Orleans’s levees remained so inadequate. Publications from the local newspaper to National Geographic have fulminated about the bad state of flood protection in this beloved city, which is below sea level. Why were developers permitted to destroy wetlands and barrier islands that could have held back the hurricane’s surge? Why was Congress, before it wandered off to vacation, engaged in slashing the budget for correcting some of the gaping holes in the area’s flood protection. [New York Times.]

Beaucoup de questions à venir, et à répondre. Et un ’séisme’ révélateur des confins de la société américaine.

Le 11 septembre, des victimes blanches et riches, aujourd’hui… des victimes noires abandonnées.

La Louisiane, l’autre pays des fruits étranges.
