Adrianne Curry wrote about how she feels about natural disaster relief on her MySpace yesterday and her opinions have her commenters in an uproar!
Adrianne believes that those who refuse to follow evacuation procedures should have to pay for their own rescue and for endangering the lives of the rescue workers who save them once the disaster hits.
“I believe all these people should have to pay the bill for their individual rescues!” Adrianne writes. “When they issue a “certain death” warning and you are f****ing dumb enough to stay, you do not deserve free aid. I watched people being interviewed on the news claiming they bought a bunch of beer and BBQ to sit through the storm. I bet these same people are crying for help as I type.”
A lot of commenters feel that Adrianne is in a position of wealth and privilege and therefore do not understand the plight these hurricane victims–who are often poor–face everyday, let alone during a natural disaster. That, and no disaster evacution plan has been flawless (although Rita, for the most part, was an improvement upon past efforts.)
What do you think? Should Adrianne be allowed to voice her opinion on such topics? Or should she listen to her fans–to those who actually live in these areas?
i agree with her because if you’re an idiot and don’t listen-too bad for you!
if you are staying because you cant afford to leave, do you think u will have the power to bargin your life back with God when you die? She is right. Stupid people stay. I would walk out if I had to, they gave them a 1 week warning!
Who says they have somewhere to go?? Or that they could pay for accomidation elsewhere? Or pay for the travel for that matter? Adrianne is just ignorant.
I don’t agree with her 100% but I get really angry at those dumb people who choose to stay when they issue a mandatory evacuation. They shouldn’t be allowed to complain and say “oh the government doesn’t care about us.” Truth be told, I don’t care about them! Its sad but they should have gotten their asses out when they were told to!
