Haiti just got hit with a massive earthquake

[Sean]

A 7.0 IN an urban center, such as they just experienced is THE worst-case scenario as far as earthquakes go. The Northridge quake was north of town here in a suburb and was smaller at a 6.7. I don't care what you think about Haiti, ANY CITY on the planet would have had extensive damage and loss of life if this struck them. California has extensive earthquake preparedness and still experienced building and freeway collapses.







It's amazing how much shit people talk about natural disasters in other parts of the world, yet when the exact same thing happens to them they just brush it off. Have a fucking heart, people are dying by the thousands.

Exactly. Ive been through a bunch of hurricanes in Virgina and South Florida. When the power goes out things get bad, when theres no gas things get worse. If it lasts more than a week things start to look alot like Haiti.
