Massive hurricane Irene, which slowly churned over the East Coast of America, moving through multiple states, has left 21 people dead and approximately $45 billion dollars in damage in the United States, due to flooding, damaged buildings and economic shutdowns. Over 4,000,000 people have been left without electricity and for some it will be two weeks before it returns.
The hurricane left 5 people dead in the Caribbean and created roughly $3 billion dollars in damage to the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Turks and Caicos and the Dominican Republic. Tens of thousands of people have been left homeless. It has become one of the costliest hurricanes in history. The hurricane is said to be heading towards Canada.

The U.S. government is warning people to be vigilant in the coming days, as the swelling of rivers in America could mean additional flooding. A few prominent individuals mocked the seriousness of the hurricane as overblown, but any storm that leaves over two dozen casualties and nearly $50 billion in damage is serious.
As someone that has lived through 5 hurricanes, including Andrew, I can attest, it is not something to be taken lightly. After hurricane Wilma, there was no electricity for two weeks, which was an unpleasant experience and not just due to having no internet or regular television service, but the pervasive darkness. Still, others have had it worse (see: Hurricane Katrina).

FBI Agent, Jared Hewitt, is to be extradited to Puerto Rico, to face criminal charges for killing a police officer on the island, during a raid. Previously, there was another FBI related incident in Puerto Rico, where an unarmed man was shot to death. The FBI claims he refused to surrender, while witnesses state they simply opened fire on him.
Why is the FBI always shooting the wrong person. A number of deaths have happened in this manner in America as well. FBI agents have shot civilians, who were innocent. They have also shot and in some cases killed, their fellow agents in the field. They need to revise gun protocols and procedures, as this should not keep happening and so frequently.
FBI Agent Charged With Negligent Homicide in Shooting Death of Puerto Rican Cop During Raid
Any time something tragic like this happens, it’s a public relations nightmare. Authorities charged an FBI agent with negligent homicide on Friday in the alleged “friendly fire” shooting death of a Puerto Rican policeman during a gun battle with kidnappers last year.
Justice Secretary Antonio Sagardia told reporters that special agent Jared Hewitt is accused of shooting 12-year police veteran Orlando Gonzalez Ortiz during a joint raid to rescue a kidnap victim.
Sagardia said Hewitt is no longer in Puerto Rico, but FBI commanders have assured local authorities that he will soon travel to the U.S. Caribbean territory for the prosecution...
