"If you know that terror is approaching in terms of hurricanes, and you've already seen the damage they've done in Florida and elsewhere, what in God's name were you thinking?" said the Rev. Calvin O. Butts III, pastor of Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem. "I think a lot of it has to do with race and class. The people affected were largely poor people. Poor, black people."

This is fucking ridiculous. These two statements have nothing to do with each other and just serve to play a race card that doesnt belong in this argument. If you take it at face value what he just said is "apparently, race and class have a lot to do with being too stupid to get the fuck out. By the way, most of the people stuck are black and poor..." ok so black/poor people are too stupid to get the fuck out? that's not MY fault it aint the GOVERNMENTS fault so fuck that

Quote:

In the days since neighborhoods and towns along the Gulf Coast were wiped out by the winds and water, there has been a growing sense that race and class are the unspoken markers of who got out and who got stuck. Just as in developing countries where the failures of rural development policies become glaringly clear at times of natural disasters like floods or drought, many national leaders said, some of the United States' poorest cities have been left vulnerable by federal policies.

failures of policy? Here's a failure... YOU BUILT A CITY UNDER SEA LEVEL BETWEEN TWO BODIES OF WATER NEAR THE OCEAN. That's honestly almost as retarded as what happened to pompeii.... also has nothing to do with racial lines, other than that, again, apparently black poor people can't seem to get out of the way of a hurricane

Quote:

The subject is roiling black-oriented Web sites and message boards, and many black officials say it is a prime subject of conversation around the country. Some African-Americans have described the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina as "our tsunami," while noting that there has yet to be a response equal to that which followed the Asian tragedy.

well shit.... the tsunami, if you recall, flattened entire fucking COUNTRIES... it has nothing to do with race, its sheer scope. Sure, Im not saying federal response couldn't have been faster, but shit.... its on its way

alright Im done, I just fucking hate people who play the race card where it doesnt belong

them

They also throw around the terms.. black officials, black websites... etc... Since when do we say.. "According to WHITE officials..." I agree.. blacks are more racist than whites. Just a fact of life. i completely accept them and just about anyone else who is a LEGAL citizen. Shit still pisses me off with BET (Black Entertainment Television") and EBONY magazine... WTF.. if we made WET (White Entertainment Television") we would have a lawsuit to deal with.

In this hurricane everyone in new orleans and the surrounding coummunities were affected.. Not just black.. but everyone. Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, Asian, Everyone. New Oreleans is a mecca of culture. I dont know why this has turned into a race war.

While I don't think it was racial, there was a clear failure by the federal government to get tis rescue operation underway. They knew last Thursday that the hurricane was gonna hit and it took them till yesterday to roll in the national guard and get food and water to people in the superdome. It's unacceptable and I don't think they were ready. They should have been though, FEMA has a top 3 list of the biggest threats to our security. On it was a terrorist attack on New York, a major earthquake in southern california, and a hurricane hitting New Orleans. Listen to the rant that the mayor of New Orleans went on Thursday night, he starts cussing and everything, but it's the damn truth and I give him props for it. Sometimes the feds (and the lousiana state government) really screw up. This was one of those times, but I don't think it's a racial issue.

We're trying to get the help in place, but the govt. broke down at the local level. The Federal Govt. didn't step up to the plate and take over until yesterday. It really should've been done from day one. Not to mention the ungrateful piece of shit that interviewed on Fox News two days ago at the Superdome. Stupid bitch is getting MRE's and then complaining about the situation to Bill O'Reilly. "We did not get not one hot meal. That stuff they give us to ate, we can't eat." Well fuck, if you're not starving who fucking cares. Be grateful that you got any food at all. That's the same shit that the Military is eating in Iraq and other countries while dying for your stupid asses. Jesus Christ, give me a fucking break.
