New Orleans' Blessing or Curse?
On the second page of this online article, Kelman states many very harshly worded opinions towards the idea of Katrina becoming rebuild. Saying things like "new orleans i a fool's errand, or a disaser waiting to happen," does not show much support to allow a newly renovated city. He spoke much about all the problems and negative aspects of katrina on the city and also the fact that either way citizens look at it, the city is doomed. The pumps that were created to help against floods failed in the wrath of katrnia, and overall the city is in a destructive tropical storm pathway. I dont necessarily agree with these statements but for one to live in such a dangerous area i give them much credit.

I believe that Kelman uses these harsh descriptions of New Orleans to get the reader engaged in his opinion and to help strengthen his point. The terms he used like, fools errand, were not his own words, but scron that has been "heaped' upon New Orleans over the years.
Kelman is a ridiculous pessimist and he strikes me as a person that is rather upset with mankind. I believe that he should get his anger-management issues straightened out so he doesn't take out his problems on his fellow man. In this case the dying,suffering people of New Orleans.
