That si the most important thing to know, that it is the debris that floods along with the waters that are the most dangerous. Debris meaning, metal, tree's, animals, septic tanks, houses, you name it.

A lot of reports are saying that the dam will collapse.
However, the official word seems that a controlled realease has begun. I believe they were planning to let the water out over at one side onto mainly farmland that is sparsly populated. If they are able to move a good amount of water out in this controlled way I wouldn't give up on the main dam yet. Have seen this been done on many dams before and it is very often successful.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal says a controlled release of water has begun at a Mississippi dam that's been stressed by Isaac and prompted evacuations in Louisiana.
The dam is at a lake near the Louisiana-Mississippi border and has been under a lot of pressure since Isaac sloshed ashore in southeast Louisiana.
Jindal said that if the water hadn't been released, it would have caused significant flooding.

News does seem to be getting more positive from the area.

State emergency responders are assessing impaired portions of the dam at Lake Tangipahoa at Percy Quin State Park in Pike County.
Heavy rains from Isaac damaged the structure, which has not been breached.
Heavy equipment and pumps from across the state have been dispatched to initiate a controlled water release from Percy Quin State Park to the Tangipahoa River to relieve dam pressure, which should not significantly increase water levels down stream.

I don't expect people like the person you quoted to read anything at this point.
Again, another thread where people harp on Obama despite the fact that this topic has nothing to do with him, except for the disaster declaration.

Huge devastation was the result of hurricaine Katrina years ago. Now another hurricaine is hitting the exact same area. I have no pity for the people that chose to stay in such a dangerous area. How many hurricaines will it take before you live somewhere else?
Some peoples homes there are once again full of water. All im saying is I dont need to be seeing this ' oh these poooor people are stuck in a hurricaine look at thier homes all full of water' it's thier own fault they chose to stay for whatever reason. Hurricaines devastate the area it doesnt take a genius to realize its not a good safe place to live. Hmmm family history or family safety for future generations..........move...quit whining on the news and move.
How many hurricaines will it take before you realize that place should be abandoned? Anyway, have fun living in the flood, guess they all like it.
