Thanks For The Handout, Sucker!

Another fine example of a human being showed his true colors yesterday. Utah, like many other states, opened it's arms to the victims of Hurricane Katrina. I'm thinking there are some residents of Provo who may be rethinking their charity. It's seems one Herbert Landry, nee New Orleans, decided he didn't like getting evicted from his apartment, so he set the complex on fire. 9 of the 22 units in the complex are completely destroyed which puts 9 families out on their rumps.

Mr. Landry has no problem getting room and board, at least from the state. He was a guest of the Utah County Jail for 12 days on drug charges having been released only 2 days before starting the fire, and is now back in County getting 3 hots and a cot while those displaced families are scurrying for shelter. Gratitude, scumbag style!

It is indeed unfortunate that there will always be a few bad apples. The generosity of the nation after Katrina was, and is, amazing. I know because I've been there. Let's hope this criminal gets what he deserves.
Peace,

That is really sad but it just goes to show that even though they say "They not bad people they just need help.", most of them cant be trusted.

Did he not think of the others there. Oh wait no he only thought of himself, like so many others.
