It's the people of Puerto Rico who won't ever be able to forget.

(3,818 posts)11. Does anyone really believe that only 1200 people died in Katrina? Haley Barbour didn't want to pay
for funeral expenses, so purposely squelched the numbers. Also, there were almost 1200 homeless in New Orleans alone, so those numbers aren't verified as to if they are still alive. How many were swept out to sea?
I haven't seen the Sandy numbers.
There needs to be an almost 20 year investigation and see if the number jibe.
