Remember Katrina

...the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property (TFP) through its America Needs Fatima campaign is asking members to join “Remember Katrina” – a massive crusade of protest and reparation for the terrible insults to God and His Mother, Mary Most Holy seen during Mardi Gras in New Orleans.

The TFP effort is based on the documented accounts of what happened at the 2005 New Orleans Mardi Gras parades and revelries, some six months before Katrina.

On January 22, for example, the Krewe du Vieux, a Mardi Gras reveling group, opened the Mardi Gras season with floats and characters targeting Jesus Christ, the Blessed Mother and the Catholic Church with obscenities and blasphemy.

Just imagine this:

A float with a Jesus-figure, his wife “JAP (Jieuxish American Princess), and
the Mother of Jesus described as “the Virgin Bubbe, Mother of Cheesus…”

Another float mocked the concept of Jesus as the Good Shepherd, showing an
image of the Sacred Heart imprinted on a huge lamb chop. Surrounding this
blasphemous image were signs reading: “…welcome Ewe to the Flock …He
died for Ewe …Ewes for Jesus.”

Finally, a member of the Krewe du Vieux dressed up to mock Our Lady of Prompt Succor, Patroness of Louisiana and the City of New Orleans. Written over her fake yet exposed breasts, were the words “Our Lady of Very Prompt Succor.”

Other floats are too graphic and lewd to be described.

Besides the obvious blasphemies and repugnant behavior, is it not ill advised to mock God, Our Lord and the Blessed Mother in light of the tragedies and destruction which have struck New Orleans recently?
