London VS. Florida
I know this might sound..weird. But..UGH! I am so mad! I just.. Why is it that the bombs in London are WAY more important then the Hurricane in Florida!? I mean…there both crisis. So what, one was a terriest attack and the other is nature. People have died in the London attack thing, and people are going to die in the hurricanes! But no one seems to pay any attention to the Hurricane. Is it less intresting or something!? I find it way more intresting then the bombings. No, I’m not saying the people on the subway..bus thingys deserved to die, and that I am not sorry for the things that happened. I’m just saying both should get equal coverage. Not one more then the other. For heavens sake, one happened overseas and the other is here! *sigh* I just guess that people will never understand my way of thinking or something. Perhaps it’s because I’m FROM Florida, and it’s intreseting to me to see things that I am missing? I have NO idea. I just think that maybe.. Oh, hell. What am I saying! It’s 1 am, and I’m rambleing…because I have nothing else better to do. and! I might not be updateing for awhile, for those that are paying attention to my diary. I am off to Florida..lol. Ironic, that everyone is getting out of Florida and I’m going there. Well, I’ve been through Hurricane’s before and I will do it again! If the time arises..which it probley won’t. Because by the time I get there it will be gone…*sigh* Maybe next year…
The Hurricaines are expected. They know they are coming..and if people want to leave the area they can. The bombings were unexpected. No one knew it was gonig to happen..and it was a terrorist act…not a part of nature. The bombings are apart of war and people can do something to stop them. Hurricaines are inevitable. Tara

When it came time to the tsunami, everyone paid attention. The hurricane in Florida is big news. However, the bombing in London was a terrorist act–something entirely unexpected. It’s not that people don’t care about Florida. Unfortunately, it’s just not something that’s a nation-wide problem. Just because the bombings occurred overseas doesn’t mean it can’t happen here. People are…

…frightened by the simple thought that it could happen in their city. It’s already been announced that Laredo, because it’s a major import/export border city, is a possible target. Don’t misunderstand. The hurricane’s important but it’s something that people can avoid. Terrorism is something we have no control over. Pretty ironic, eh? Mother Nature is something we can avoid with enough…

…of a warning. Nature’s supposed to be something we can’t control. But then we have terrorism, a man-made threat, and we have no control over it whatsoever. It’s frightening. Take care in Florida. -Irma

ryn: yeah…I’ve been having those crazy detailed dreams a lot lately. It’s awesome if they’re good dreams because then they seem lifelike, but it’s crappy when they’re bad ones because they can be terrifyingly lifelike. anyhow…take care in Florida.

I’d say one gets more coverage than the other because the media can make more of terrorism – theyre free to freak out and blame certain groups (justly or unjustly) and ask a bunch of people their opinion on whatever we can do. You can’t do that with a natural disaster. later 🙂

Hmmm you make some obvious points there.. but hurricanes ppl are warned about.. and terrorist attacks happen un expectedly.. there is not warning.. so what would you focus more on.. something that ppl get warnings on or something that has no warning.. hmmm Until next time
